Forum Global Opportunities Fund, the global macro hedge fund run by Ray Bakhramov, jumped 60.21% in the month of August. It is now up 106.71% year-to-date, putting it on track to post its first year in the green since 2011, according to a letter to investors reviewed by ValueWalk.
The increase was driven by a 38.2% gain in the fund’s forex investments. The firm has a long-standing bet against China’s yuan, which the country devalued last month. It also won on short bets against the Taiwanese and Singapore dollars as well as the S&P 500, DAX and Nikkei indices.
