It uses multiplicative regression equations to find the coefficient of determination and the autoregressive integrated moving average to analyze forecasts. The authors find that returns from most of the Dow Jones Credit Suisse hedge fund broad indexes dwindled less than market indexes during the 2008–2009 period of recession in the U.S., but the rebound by the market was better. The future forecasts on the basis of these four market indexes suggests that the Dow Jones Credit Suisse hedge fund broad indexes will make continuous recovery in the future for investors.TOPICS: Mutual fund performance, volatility measures, portfolio construction
