Global Macro Hedge Fund
Inflation. Deflation. Bubbles and busts. Our Global Macro Hedge Fund is all about capitalizing on big-picture trends and imbalances while hedging risk. Our global themes are enhanced by expert fundamental analysis and stock picking.
Long/Short Hedge Fund
The Tech Bust. The Global Financial Crisis. The Crescat Long/Short Hedge Fund strongly outperformed during two of the worst bear markets in history. Investors in the Long/Short Fund value the fund’s strong risk-adjusted returns, achieved with a focus on long and short equities.
Large Cap SMA
Crescat’s longest running strategy. Crescat Large Cap is a value oriented, long only, large cap equity separately manged account strategy that has outperformed the S&P 500 over multiple business cycles. The manager can hold a portion of the portfolio in cash and/or precious metals during expected market downturns. The strategy combines Crescat’s macro themes with bottom-up stock picking supported by the firm’s proprietary equity model.
Precious Metals SMA
A key part of any discerning investor’s asset allocation. An actively managed portfolio of gold and silver mining stocks to navigate a variety of economic environments. Low correlation to common Wall Street offerings. High long-term return potential with inflation and recession protection.

It is considered representative of the US stock market at large. It is a market-cap-weighted index of the 500 largest and most liquid companies listed on the NYSE and NASDAQ exchanges.
