Fund Launches: There’s A New Way To Get Some Ping Jiang In Your Life

By Bess Levin

As you may have heard, Ping Capital’s Exceptional Value Fund ended 2010 up 105 percent. While impressed by the number (and Mr. Jiang’s comeback), some potential investors might have been slightly leery about monthly swings of 8+% and the unorthodox ways in which PJ was able to score such an eye-popping return. Well today is your lucky day.

We’re told Ping Cap has just launched the Ping Emerging Markets Macro Fund, which “targets a lower vol and focuses on short term trading.” The fund started trading January 1 (minimum investment is $500,000 with a one year lockup; PJ, having apparently learned nothing from the Big Guy, will be charging a mere 2&20). Break yourself off a piece of the new flavor today.

    so a guy walks into a bar, sits next to a good looking girl, and sets his watch on the table. the girl notices the watch has no face or hands on it, so she asks him, “what’s with this watch, it doesn’t even tell the time.” guy responds, “it’s a telepathic watch, tells me the time and some things about my surroundings.” girl responds, “so what’s it telling your right now?” guy responds, “well it’s telling me you’re not wearing any panties.” girl responds “looks like your watch is running about an hour fast.”
