This group was founded by A Bathing Ape, a computer science- Economics student at Brown University, who is also an inspiring hedgie. Network, joke around, and convene with your fellow hedgies.

*I hate to be elitist, but to maintain the quality of the group, HF front office only*

Obama vs. HFs

How will an Obama Administration handle the hedge fund industry? Obviously, there'll be more regulation, but to what extent, and how do you think this will play out?

footnote: why did more wall st.-ers support Obama, than McCain? Why did they act against their own self interest?

Comprehensive list of quant funds.

Yeah, we've all heard of D.E. Shaw, and RenTech, what are the others?

Help,

WSO suffers from a lack of hedge fund traders/structurers/researchers. Does anybody have any suggestions on how to increase membership on this front? Hedge Funhouse has traditionally been the most inactive of the forums. I've already alerted a few of my classmates (aspiring hedgies), and a few of my contacts in the HF industry. Anything you can do to revive the Hedge Fund Community on WSO is appreciated.

Landing an Internship at a Hedge Fund

Hey,

I'm currently a student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and am extremely interested in interning at a hedge fund this summer in Chicago. I'm interested in any suggestions people have or personal experience in receiving an internship at a hedge fund.

Thank you

Intro.

Lemme introduce myself. Im a comp sci-econ student. I have interned at a BB IBD, and a top quant fund. I have been getting some private messages from aspirings about how I got in a BB IBD w/my forementiioned major, and other industry specific questions, so Ill try to answer some. I got this from an aspiring. Excuse the poor language/grammar/sentence structure, it's been a rough week.

Dear A Bathing Ape,

Hi, I'm applying to colleges and contemplating a career in IB and was wondering whether you could help me.

1. As a computer science major, do you feel at a disadvantage going into interviews?
