Dedicated Short Bias

    0.04 sec.
Dedicated Short Bias
A hedge fund strategy with which the fund manager takes more short positions than long positions.

Notes:
Before the 1990s, there were funds called "short-only funds," which would do nothing but short securities. The long bull market of the 1990s crushed this strategy, and short-bias funds emerged.
