Renaissance Technologies is a NY-based hedge fund started by Jim Simons in 1982. Its $5 billion Medallion Fund has averaged 38% annual returns, after fees, since 1989, and is considered in the industry to be the most successful hedge fund, yielding returns ten percentage points higher than legendary investors Bruce Kovner, George Soros, or Paul Tudor Jones. Because it is so successful, it charges a 5% management fee and a 44% incentive fee.

Simons only hires PhDs and the fund mainly employs computer based models to predict price changes in easily-traded financial instruments. The fund is highly secretive and we are putting in some of their top holdings and some of their more speculative holdings.

Didn't they used to own UNTD? If so, I wonder why they sold it.
