All of us have an obligation to try to explain ... what the hedge fund industry and the private equity industry does that is useful, we shouldn’t be upset about what we do. We should be proud. – David RubensteinRate it:
America has always been a land of opportunity. Its the one place on earth where you can go from building brick walls in the Texas heat to the kind of success my brother and I have achieved, ted Cruz believes in the opportunity society, he believes in the dignity of hard work, and hes not afraid to fight for what he believes in. The Wilkses are not the only billionaires backing Cruz. Reclusive hedge fund magnate Robert Mercer gave $11 million; Texas energy investor Toby Neugebauer gave $10 million. Mercer has declined to comment on why he is supporting Cruz, while Neugebauer backs Cruz for his track record promoting conservative causes and opposing the federal debt. Despite the large donations, Cruz is not among the leaders of the Republican race. A Reuters/Ipsos poll on Sept. 8 showed him in fourth place among Republican voters at 5.5 percent, tied with former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee and Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker. . PRAYING FOR CRUZ. The day after President Barack Obama won a second term, I was pretty bummed out, Farris Wilks told congregants in a sermon on Nov. 7, 2012, a recording of which was provided by Peter Montgomery, a senior fellow with the equal rights group People for the American Way. I do believe that our country died that Tuesday night, Wilks said. Less than a year later, Farris found himself in the ballroom of the Marriott Hotel in Des Moines, Iowa, where Cruz stood with head bowed in a prayer circle, surrounded by evangelical Christians. Cruz was among the political headliners at a Pastors and Pews conference, an annual, closed-door affair that now occurs in roughly 14 states and is organized by Christian nationalist David Lane. The born-again Lane, a self-described former wild man of drugs, wine, women and song, believes the Bible should be the primary textbook in public schools and that judges who favor same-sex marriage should be impeached. He says people who embrace homosexual marriage, along with pagan public schools, pagan higher learning and pagan media, are creating Americas downfall with their multiracial false gods. One of Lanes major aims is to motivate at least 1,000 pastors to run for office in 2016. Polling shows there are 65 million to 80 million evangelical Christians but only a quarter of them vote. Getting 5 percent more registered and voting would, according to Lane, put a conservative in the White House. Asked about the Wilks brothers' financial support for Cruz, Lane said in an interview:. – Farris WilksRate it:
And he's a hedge fund guy, and as you know they're the only ones I'm raising taxes on, they're going to be paying up. – Donald TrumpRate it:
Anyone would be lucky to get a job there -- if the vulturous hedge fund wasn’t our owner, it’s a pretty grim reality. – Amy WebbRate it:
Are these hedge fund managers thinking about GM over the next 10 years or the next 10 weeks? – David KudlaRate it:
At a time of massive wealth and income inequality, we need a progressive tax system in this country which is based on ability to pay, it is not acceptable that a number of major profitable corporations have paid zero in federal income taxes in recent years, and that millionaire hedge fund managers often enjoy an effective tax rate which is lower than the truck drivers or nurses. – Bernie SandersRate it:
Hedge fund managers with great track records have stood by their conviction that Valeant is a great company despite a growing list of questions about its business model, its pricing policies, its pile of debt and the determination of potential acquisition targets to stay out of Valeant's clutches. – Erik GordonRate it:
Hedge funds do love the crowded names and the bigger a fund gets, the more likely it is we see them in common names. – Brad BalterRate it:
Hillary and Jeb, in particular, are totally controlled by the hedge fund guys and the Wall Street guys, but hedge funds, in particular. – Jeb BushRate it:
I am struggling to pay my electric bill while these hedge fund managers waste fuel riding around in private planes. – Joanne FonsecaRate it:
I believe the recent filings on MLPs and Kinder Morgan will mark the bottom for MLP valuations, having big investors involved will scare off the hedge fund shorts. – Jay HatfieldRate it:
I have a plan to launch a global macro hedge fund to invest in global financial assets, there's huge demand for such products. The biggest obstacle now is how to move the money out. – Liu HaiyingRate it:
I know them. They all are supporting Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton, i want the hedge fund guys who pay very little -- they make a lot of money -- and a lot of it is luck. They pick a stock and all of a sudden they make a lot of money. I want the hedge fund guys to pay more taxes. – Donald TrumpRate it:

If you're a fund manager and you were long assets of one kind ... there's sound reasons for thinking why wouldn't I own some yen here, some dollar/yen puts, what's my smart trade to hedge something, when all the dust settles, whatever happens, Japanification just goes on and how can I have a cheap yen in that world. – Kit JuckesRate it:
Institutional investors are looking to hedge fund solutions to offer risk/return profiles not available via mainstream strategies and traditional asset classes, the acquisition of Arden emphasises further Aberdeen's commitment to diversifying its overall business and to growing its alternatives platform. – Aberdeen Chief Executive Martin GilbertRate it:
It was mainly hedge fund, speculator driven and smacks of price-overshooting. – Anuraag ShahRate it:
It's going to be very specific, and I think it's going to be a plan that creates incentives, and I think it's going to be a plan that makes people happy, other than maybe the hedge fund guys, who make hundreds of millions of dollars and pay very little tax. I mean, those guys will not exactly love me. – Donald TrumpRate it:
Now that may sound like a terrible result for hedge funds, but it's not a terrible result for the hedge fund managers. – Warren BuffettRate it:
Prosperity can't be just for CEOs and hedge fund managers. Democracy can't be just for billionaires and corporations, prosperity and democracy are part of your basic bargain, too. You brought our country back. Now it's time, your time, to secure the gains and move ahead. – Hillary ClintonRate it:
The hedge fund guys are getting away with murder. – Donald TrumpRate it:
The hedge fund guys are getting away with murder. They're making a tremendous amount of money -- they have to pay tax, i want to lower the rates for the middle class. The middle class is the one. They're getting absolutely destroyed. This country, it won't have a middle class very soon. – Donald TrumpRate it:
