For my upcoming hedge fund, the target is 20% return net of all fees. So far, my early investors into my business is getting 10.2% distribution as of 1H 2025. How does that compare with the top hedge funds in the world? My role models are: Jim Simons Renaissance - 11.2% (Better than my 10.2% by 1%) Two sigma Absolute Return - 11% (Better than my 10.2% by 0.8%) Citdael - Not even on this list (I am better in terms of 10.2% distributions made)​ Two Sigma Spectrum - 7.6% (I am better in terms of 10.2% distribution made) Note: I checked Citadel again, and their Wellington fund returned 2.5% during 1H2025 (Source) ​so my distribution of 10.2% is better. Historically, Q3 is a slower quarter but we should still hit ​our monthly 1.7% target consistently. The most profitable quarter is usually Q4.​​ As I continue to refine my investment models, I expect the return distribution to be more consistent in 2H 2025. ​The most interesting thing is that Jim Simons and Two Sigma are hitting around the 20% target like clockwork. While these hedge funds don't provide distributions, my goal is to provide such distributions consistently and predictably.

This post is for people who have more than $20,000 to invest. This is how you can get Investing Accelerator for "free" and Get the market to pay for it for you. So here's how you can get the investing strategy to pay for the tuition of the program from the second month onwards. Secret: You start with the monthly passive income strategy first. 1. You hop on a call with me (or Michael) to see if you are a good fit. If you are, you will get to choose a 12 month payment plan for Investing Accelerator. Link to schedule a call: https://bit.ly/3WitxVE 2. This allows you to start investing and generating monthly passive income starting from month #2. 3. You go through the 7-week video training. It takes around 4 hours a week. If you got time, you can go through it faster. 4. You start with the monthly passive income strategy. You set up your account with your favorite broker. My favourite is Interactive Broker (IBKR). 5. You fill out a form to get the highest option level (required for monthly passive income) 6. I publish my monthly passive income trades monthly. At the end of 7 weeks, you copy 2 of the trades each month. Placing the trade should take you around 15-30 mins each month. 7. With $20,000 * 3% = $600 per month, this will pay for the tuition cost each month with money left over. Since this is a short-term strategy, you can deduct the tuition expense against your trading income. 8. By the end of 12 months, the market would have paid the entire Investing Accelerator tuition with $1,000 extra left over or more. It's that simple. If you plan to join Investing Accelerator, I expect you to just follow 1-2 of my trades each month for monthly passive income and let the market pay the tuition.​​ Cheers, Eric Seto, CPA ------------- Investing Accelerator is designed for people without a financial background.
