Paul Singer is the brain behind Elliot Management, one of the oldest hedge funds with over $50 billion in assets under management. The hedge fund started investing in convertible bonds and arbitrage before branching into distressed investing.

Last year alone, the hedge fund is believed to have gained 5.9% as the overall market turned bearish and the S&P 500 fell 19%. The impressive performance stems from Singer's aggressive investment strategies that tend to outperform the overall market.
