Adds EDL Capital AUM in paragraph 5

By Nell Mackenzie

LONDON, March 10 (Reuters) - Hedge fund EDL Capital, which trades assets such as currencies and bonds based on global macro economic outlooks, has returned nearly 17% so far in 2025 to March 7.

The fund run by star trader, Edouard de Langlade, a former member of Moore Capital, had finished February up 5.9% bringing its year-to-date performance to a 6.7%, said the source.

But the fund then returned another 10% so far in volatile March markets, when 10-year German bonds suffered their largest weekly yield sell-off since 1990, the euro jumped with its largest gain since March 2009 and the S&P 500 saw its biggest weekly fall in six months.

The broader hedge fund industry is up 1.3% this year to the end of February, according to hedge fund research firm, PivotalPath.

EDL Capital managed around $1.3 billion as of the end of February.
