Hedge Funds Seek Japan Trades After New Quake

Hedge funds investing in Japan are scouting for opportunities after weathering the country?s worst earthquake and resulting nuclear crisis as the Bank of Japan pumped record funds into the financial system.

R-SQUARED Master Fund, which benefited from investments in put options and credit default swaps before the March 11 temblor, is finding opportunities in subordinated debt. Dymon Asia, which started a macro hedge fund in 2008 with capital from Tudor Investment Corp., sees potential in the foreign exchange market after the fund returned 8 percent last month.
