The title says a lot. Goldman just raised $4.5 billion for two new hedge funds. Guess what the funds strategy is? Credit and Distressed Debt. What does this tell us? To me it means that Goldman sees how bad the credit markets really are and see a way to profit from it. So if you have been following the current mess (and honestly if you are reading this then you are) this is a good indication that it is far from over.

In other Goldie Hedge Fund news they are still down in their two biggest funds Global Alpha a quant fund and Global Equity Opportunies a equity macro type fund.
