"Our Top Traders of 2010 have shown long-term success in an often volatile business and were able to perform well in a difficult year," said Group Editorial Director Ginger Szala. "Commodity trading advisors are the mutual fund managers of the derivatives business. In 2010, after a rough start, they performed well, up 7.03%, as measured by the Barclay CTA Index. Assets under management grew to $266.8 billion, almost 25% over the previous year. Perhaps this marks a realization by investors to the benefit of adding managed futures to diversify portfolios."
Futures Magazine's Top Traders of 2010 include:
- RAM Management Group LTD: Commodity trading advisor earns 38.36%
- VACA Capital Management LLC: Solid return of 27.81% in global diversified program
- Fort LP: Programs earn double digit returns
