Evidence of Predictability in Hedge Fund Returns and Multi-Style Multi-Class Tactical Style Allocation Decisions

While there has been a significant amount of research on the predictability of traditional asset classes, very little is known about the predictability of returns emanating from alternative vehicles such as hedge funds. This paper attempts to fill this gap by documenting evidence of predictability in hedge fund returns. A revisited version of this paper was published in the September/October 2003 issue of the Financial Analysts Journal.
