NEW YORK, April 4 (Reuters) - Hedge fund Citadel's
flagship Wellington fund gained 1.38% last month when the
failure of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank triggered a
sharp market selloff that sparked fears of a broader financial
crisis.
The Citadel fund is now up 4.19% for the year, according to
an investor in the fund.
Its other portfolios also reported gains, the investor said.
Citadel's Tactical Trading fund is up 5.46% for the year and its
Equities fund is up 4.56% for the year while the Global Fixed
Income fund reported a gain of 1.77% for the year, the person
who is not permitted to discuss performance publicly said.
A Citadel representative declined to comment.
