As it is generally stipulated that short selling is not allowed in the same fund, the purpose of hedge funds is to hedge the risk of market decline by shorting. However, up to now, the operation mode of hedge funds has been quite different from its intention. On the contrary, it is aimed at pursuing the maximum return, and most of them use short selling to trade with derivative financial products to increase rather than reduce risks.

The risks of hedge funds include leverage risk, short selling risk, high-risk preference, lack of transparency, lack of regulation and risks brought by option volatility.

The early hedge fund can be said to be a form of fund management based on the conservative investment strategy of hedging and preserving value. However, after decades of evolution, hedge funds have lost their original connotation of risk hedging, and the title of Hedge Fund is also in name only.
