RYE BROOK, N.Y., Dec. 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- IndexIQ, the leading provider of innovative investment solutions, today announced the November performance of its family of IQ Hedge™ Indexes and the updated holdings in the firm's IQ Merger Arbitrage ETF (NYSE Arca: MNA).
Two of the six IndexIQ Hedge Indexes were positive for the month, led by a rise of +0.97 percent in the IQ Merger Arbitrage Index, as markets reacted strongly in the wake of the U.S. presidential election. The IQ Hedge Long/Short Index was up +0.74 percent in the month, while the IQ Hedge Multi-Strategy Index fell -1.22 percent and the IQ Hedge Market Neutral Index declined -0.53 percent.
"The election of Donald Trump sent the markets off in new directions, and began to break down some of the asset class correlations we've seen in recent years. Bonds sold off, small cap stocks outperformed, and many commodities and oil rallied," said Salvatore Bruno, IndexIQ's Chief Investment Officer. "If we are in fact entering a period of diverging asset classes, this should create a favorable environment for many liquid alternative strategies, and investors should consider repositioning their portfolios accordingly."
Designed as investable benchmarks that replicate the performance characteristics of sophisticated hedge fund strategies, the IQ Hedge Indexes comprise the first family of investable benchmark indexes covering hedge fund replication/alternative beta strategies. IQ Hedge Index returns for the period ended November 30, 2016 were as follows:
