  • December 4, 2020 Dear Investor: Skybridge Multi
    _ December 4, 2020 Dear Investor: SkyBridge Multi-Adviser Hedge Fund Portfolios LLC - Series G (“Series G”) had another strong month in November and was up estimated 3.38% net after posting positive months in both September and October when equities and bonds were both negative. November’s performance for virtually every asset was driven by a reversal in conservative risk positioning going into the election (the VIX hit 40 briefly in late October as the S&P 500 was down over 6% in September - October) driven initially by a win by Biden with Republicans holding the Senate, and then amplified by the news of not one but two vaccine candidates that both have demonstrated efficacies north of 90%. These two key drivers, along with the continued heavy lifting of the Fed behind the scenes, drove equities to new all-time highs (after slowing down to mid to low single digit growth rates over the summer, money supply growth reaccelerated up to low teens to high 20% annualized growth rates as the Fed’s balance sheet has begun to meaningfully re-expand). Interestingly, however, is the fact that even after last month’s record rally, the S&P 500 TR is “only” up 3.9% the past 3 months from the previous record highs in late August/early September, as markets have entered a regime of continued gains with more two-way volatility, both down and up. We believe this type of price action will continue as equities are now at multiples (approximately 22x - 23x 2021 earnings), exceeded only in the late stages of the internet bubble and the late 1920’s.

  • May 11, 2020 Dear Investor: Skybridge Multi
    _ May 11, 2020 Dear Investor: SkyBridge Multi-Adviser Hedge Fund Portfolios LLC - Series G (“Series G” or the “Fund”) generated a +0.70% net return in April. While Series G’s portfolio of underlying funds gained +2.27% for the month, the Fund’s return was adversely impacted by secondary market sales of the Hildene Opportunities Funds. Importantly, these sales, along with prior sales of Series G’s interests in the EJF Debt Opportunities Funds (as of March 31), essentially eliminated Series G’s exposure to bank trust preferred collateralized debt obligations. Capital raised by these sales was re-allocated into new investments with Bridgewater and Oaktree and a follow-on investment with Third Point. These large, well-known managers have built their track records by capitalizing on substantial market dislocations, and we are excited to add them to Series G’s portfolio. Why the Sales The decision to sell Series G’s interests in EJF and Hildene was based on risk management and investment considerations. Because of suspended redemptions at EJF and a fund restructuring at Hildene, investors, including Series G, are presently unable to redeem capital from these two funds. As a consequence, absent action, these two positions would grow in size after Series G satisfies pending redemptions for June 30th. As a reminder, redemptions for June 30th are a manageable 9.3%. While EJF and Hildene were amongst Series G’s top performers over the last three years, they operate in a niche market, bank trust preferred collateralized debt obligations. In more benign market environments, identifying niche opportunities represents part of Series G’s value proposition.
