While listed hedge funds and shadow hedge funds — not to name names, but GLG Partners (GLG), Och-Ziff (OZM), Fortress (FIG), Blackstone (BX) and General Electric (GE) spring to mind — shelter under the ban on short selling financial stocks, David Einhorn has pulled Greenlight Re (GLRE) off the SEC’s original list of protected species.
Meanwhile, add Man Group plc (MNGPF.PK), the world’s largest hedge fund manager, to the ranks of gutless hypocrites.
Disclosure: NakedShorts is long GE (bangs head on table).
