Make financial history part of everyday style with this Amaranth Advisors youth hoodie. The firm was founded in Greenwich in 2000 and evolved from a multi-strategy hedge fund into a business increasingly centered on natural gas trading. After reported energy gains in 2005, changing prices contributed to losses exceeding $6 billion in 2006 and the start of liquidation. The story offers a memorable look at commodities, risk, and the enduring curiosity around a vanished financial institution.
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.
