| pjb64 | the same can be said of mutual funds, I don't know why CFA has it out for hedge funds. |
| Fabulous1 | Because this is the hedge fund chapter. It was also mentioned for mutual funds in a previous one. |
I just wanted to share the good news that I passed CFA Level I!!! Thank you for your help - I think the online question bank helped cut the clutter and made a positive difference.
