- chalst 15y agoThere was a more data-rich FT analysis piece last year that cited research showing that female hedge fund managers made a 9% return vs. a 5.82% return for men. http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/9292d85a-fd5f-11df-b83c-00144feab49a.html http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/9292d85a-fd5f-11df-b83c-00144... There was also some earlier research linking irrational risk taking to testosterone, based on a study that showed that women with high testosterone showed similar patterns of high-risk investing to men. http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/b607cb22-9174-11de-879d-00144feabdc0.html http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/b607cb22-9174-11de-879d-00144...
