MANHATTAN, N.Y. - s4story -- In its first month of eligibility, Areus Asset Management (Alpha Gold Fund) received two BarclayHedge - Recognition of Excellence Awards. Number #1 in the Currency Traders category, and Top 10 in the Short Term category for April 2023.

Earlier this year Alpha Gold also reached a significant milestone for any Portfolio Manager of twelve months of trading. In that period the portfolio returned to investors net +48.91%.

Designed as a technical, long-short, multi-strategy absolute returns-focused portfolio, the Alpha Gold Fund by Areus Asset Management focuses on the Spot Gold/USD currency pair.

An alternative approach:
Equities have underperformed in the past twelve months. However, unlike equities the Areus Alpha Gold Fund portfolio does not rely on asset price appreciation. Instead, it looks to generate returns from natural price action volatility, regardless of the general direction of the underlying asset price.

Spot the difference:
The fund primarily invests in XAUUSD spot gold to target high risk-adjusted returns uncorrelated to traditional asset classes. XAUUSD is the second most liquid pair in the currency market; the price of gold relative to the US dollar determines its value.

From the Portfolio Manager - April 2023 Update:
"The Areus Alpha Gold Fund performed steadily (+4.52%) in April, benefiting from long positions in spot gold. The rally in gold prices can be attributed to the bank run crisis and US credit crunch, as well as concerns of a ripple effect across the financial system. The instability in several financial institutions prompted investors to seek safety in gold, driving up demand and heightened the appeal for gold as a tangible asset independent of traditional banking structures. Rising inflationary pressures further contributed to the surge in gold prices as, as investors sought to safeguard their wealth".
