GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Founded by Nicholas M. Maounis in 2000, Amaranth Advisors built a multi-strategy hedge fund in Greenwich before its attention turned increasingly to energy trading. The fund reportedly gained about $1 billion in 2005, then faced losses exceeding $6 billion in 2006 as natural gas prices moved against its positions. This heavy knit quarter-zip sweatshirt connects a comfortable wardrobe choice with a consequential financial story, suited to collectors who follow hedge funds, commodities, and market history.
Amaranth Advisors LLC was an American multi-strategy hedge fund founded in 2000 by Nicholas M. Maounis and based in Greenwich, Connecticut. The firm initially relied heavily on convertible arbitrage, a strategy Maounis had worked with before founding the company. From 2004 to 2005, Amaranth shifted toward energy trading, where Canadian trader Brian Hunter focused on natural gas. In 2005, the fund reportedly earned about $1 billion as energy prices rose after Hurricane Katrina curtailed production. Natural gas trading increasingly dominated the portfolio, and assets under management reached as much as $9.2 billion. When natural gas prices moved against its positions, the fund suffered losses exceeding $6 billion in 2006. Amaranth disclosed major losses to investors on September 18, then transferred its energy portfolio to Citadel LLC and JPMorgan Chase. Its founder notified investors of a trading suspension on September 29, 2006; the fund hired Fortress Investment Group to liquidate assets on October 1. After the collapse, Maounis founded Verition Fund Management, which hired several former Amaranth employees. The name Amaranth came from a flower described as retaining vivid color after death.
