Not all hedge funds were bloodied in September.
SPARX Group's hedge fund division PMA said its flagship foreign exchange and macro fund returned 1.82% last month, which was one of the worst ever on record for the hedge fund industry.
The PMA Harvester Fund is up 15.75% on the year.

PMA, which is based in Hong Kong, manages some US$2.5 billion in assets.
