Clint Carlson, who started one of the first multistrategy hedge funds in 1993, is seeking to reboot after a decade of dwindling assets, joining other industry pioneers trying to rebuild rather than surrender.
Down from a peak of $10 billion in 2017, Dallas-based Carlson Capital now oversees about $300 million with 25 employees. Rather than quit, Carlson increased his firm’s use of quantitative analysis and dropped other strategies to focus on equity relative value — his age-old specialty that holds long and short positions connected by a theme.
