		NEW YORK -- Edward Stern, head of the Canary Capital Partners hedge fund, testified Friday that he happily accepted when Bank of America's brokers offered him the ability to trade after markets had officially closed, but now thinks it was unfair.

		Canary chose the stocks in each share basket to replicate the portfolio of a corresponding mutual fund it was timing.
		Canary used the share basket swaps to hedge its exposure to the risk associated with securities in its mutual fund portfolios that it perceived to be poor performers, as well as to reduce the volatility of its long mutual fund positions.

	The Hedge Fund/Mutual Fund Scandal
		The hedge fund noted in the announcement was Canary Capital Partners LLC and is reportedly part of a much larger investigation into such practices by New York’s Attorney General, Eliot Spitzer.
		What is most surprising to me is that these very large mutual fund families would have engaged in these illegal practices, in the first place, and apparently for several years in some cases.
		Spitzer said the funds operated under a “double standard,” in that the Canary fund and apparently other big players were allowed to execute short-term trades even while everyone else was precluded from doing so.

		Canary would fax or e-mail a series of "proposed" fund trades to Bank of America broker Theodore Sihpol, according to the complaint.
		A fund's performance may also be hurt by the fact that fund managers must hold more cash to meet the redemptions caused by the timers' trades.

		The $40 million settlement that Spitzer's office reached with hedge fund Canary Capital Partners LLC cast an unfavorable light on two profit-making schemes that allegedly occurred with the cooperation of the fund families and an intermediary.
		In the second scheme, the four named fund companies are said to have permitted market timing of their funds -- trades based on expectations of very-short-term gains -- when their prospectuses specifically assured investors that such practices were discouraged.
		Fund managers must either sell stock or use cash to meet the redemption, leaving remaining shareholders stuck with the bill for capital gains and trading costs.

		Instead, she helped manage a fund of funds, an industry term for a pool of assets that would be invested in a range of hedge funds.

		The investigation into Canary concluded Wednesday morning with the firm, run by Edward J. Stern, has agreed to fork over $40 million related to illegal mutual fund trades.
		Fund purchases made after market close are supposed to reflect that day's activity and, therefore, priced at the next day's net asset value.
		According to the complaint, the funds' management companies were completely aware of Stern's purchases and permitted them as long as Canary kept other assets with the investment management.

	Stern Has No Smoking Gun at Fund Trial
		Edward Stern, the former hedge fund manager at the center of the mutual fund trading scandal, finally got a chance to tell his side of the story.
		In the mutual fund scandal, regulators and Spitzer's office pursued claims against mutual fund families that negotiated secret deals with hedge funds such as Canary, which permitted them to engage in market-timing.
		Part of Sihpol's defense strategy is to argue that his supervisors at Bank of America were aware of his dealings with Canary and that the former broker has been singled out by Spitzer's office, even though other employees were more involved in permitting Canary to make late trades.

		While his fund performance in 1998 was an unimpressive 18% gain, trailing the wider market that year, in 1999, his fund showed an eye-popping 110% advance, according to the complaint.
		At this point, Stern opened the doors and hedge fund investors, who are themselves quite fickle (or nimble) found their way in.
		Certainly, as his funds grew, and if he was to depend on his late-trading schemes, he would have to widen his circle of mutual fund partners.

		The arbitrage profit from timing comes dollar-for-dollar out of the pockets of the fund's investors, as the timer steps in at the last moment and takes part of the investors' upside when the market goes up, so the next day's NAV is reduced for those who are still in the fund.

		After selling a fund, the proceeds of the sale were to be deposited into a Nations money market fund or short-term bond fund until such time that Canary decided to "redeploy" it for the next timing trade in the "approved" Nations funds.
