(Bloomberg) -- Two Sigma Investments' macro-focused Compass hedge fund fell about 3% last month, according to people familiar with the matter.
Compass is among the few macro funds that failed to post a gain in January, as many of its peers took advantage of turbulent equity and Treasury markets to make money. The S&P 500 slid 5.3% last month and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index plunged 9%. Treasuries lost 1.9%, turning in their worst month since November 2016.
