Dow Jones Hedge Fund Indexes, Inc. (DJHFI), has resumed publication of Dow Jones Hedge Fund Equity Long/Short and Equity Market Neutral Strategy Benchmarks.
Both Benchmarks were halted on 3 November 2008, based on a joint decision made by DJHFI and the investment manager of the managed account platform that supports the Dow Jones Hedge Fund Strategy Benchmarks.
The halt was a result of temporary measures taken by the investment manager to reduce the risk profiles of certain managers who manage assets within this investment platform.
DJHFI will publish the price history of these two benchmarks, for the period between the halt and resumption of publication, based on the actual performance of the portfolios, which will reflect the temporarily reduced investment exposure of the portfolios.
The publication of the Dow Jones Hedge Fund Convertible Arbitrage Strategy Benchmark was halted on 2 January 2009, and remains suspended until further notice.
The Dow Jones Hedge Fund Balanced Portfolio Indexes (DJHFBPIs) were suspended on 3 November 2008, and remain suspended until further notice. No changes have been made to the Dow Jones Hedge Fund Strategy Benchmarks for Distressed Securities, Event Driven and Merger Arbitrage.
