Nishant Kumar: Macro traders slump in March as war squeezes hedge funds
Macro traders slump as funds sink

Macro trading funds experienced significant declines in March, according to Nishant Kumar. Haidar Jupiter fell 12 percent, while Brevan Howard Master recorded a 6.6 percent drop—its worst monthly loss in over 20 years. Diego Megia’s Taula also posted an 8.6 percent decline. The downturn is attributed to the pressures of ongoing war, which has affected hedge fund performance.

Earlier this year, hedge fund giants issued public statements expressing confidence in the United Arab Emirates as a financial hub despite Middle East conflict, according to Nishant Kumar. Firms have also turned to offering unconventional perks to retain key staff, but still face challenges competing with individual autonomy, as Kumar previously reported. These developments come as the sector navigates ongoing geopolitical and operational pressures.
