Regal’s King says his hedge funds will recover from March madness

Regal Partners will add two key executives to its investment committee and limit the size of positions its listed funds will take as it urges its backers to stick with a high-octane trading strategy after a double-digit loss.

The firm’s veteran stockpicker, Phil King, fronted a strategy forum on Wednesday, telling investors that while he was disappointed about the last month, he was confident about the future and longer-term returns.

King had already written to investors earlier this month to explain how a $220 million bet on speculative biotechnology play Opthea had failed spectacularly, forcing the fund to write down its entire position.
