Citadel&#8217;s tactical trading fund, which combines equities and quantitative strategies, rose 6.1% during the same time, the person said.<\/p>\n<p>The fundamental equity fund returned 3.1% through the end of June, while its global fixed income strategy advanced 5%, the person said.<\/p>\n<p>Citadel declined to comment. The hedge fund giant had $66 billion in assets under management as of June 1.<\/p>\n<p>The stock market has proven resilient in the face of President Donald Trump&#8217;s aggressive trade war and conflict in the Middle East. The\u00a0S&amp;P 500\u00a0has rebounded from a near 20% sell-off in April, going on to score a record high on Friday and again on Monday. The equity benchmark is up more than 5% year to date.<\/p>\n<p>Griffin has been critical of Trump&#8217;s protectionist trade policy, calling tariffs a &#8220;painfully regressive tax&#8221; that hits working-class Americans the hardest. The billionaire also said Trump&#8217;s global trade fight risks spoiling the U.S. &#8220;brand&#8221; as well as its government bond market.<\/p>\n<p>Citadel&#8217;s flagship Wellington fund rose 15.1% last year. Since Citadel&#8217;s inception in 1990, the firm produced an annualized net return of 19.2% through the end of May.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"group\">\n<div class=\"RelatedContent-relatedContent\" id=\"RegularArticle-RelatedContent-1\">\n<div class=\"RelatedContent-container\">\n<div class=\"RelatedContent-nonCollapsibleContent\">\n<h2 class=\"RelatedContent-header\">Don\u2019t miss these insights from CNBC PRO<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2025\/07\/01\/billionaire-ken-griffins-hedge-funds-at-citadel-are-all-in-the-green-for-2025.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Citadel CEO Ken Griffin speaks during the Semafor World Economy Summit 2025 at Conrad Washington on April 23, 2025 in Washington, DC.
