Here are the ones I've seen mentions of:

in http://online.wsj.com/article/.....lenews_wsj

- "Platinum Grove Asset Management, the $6 billion hedge-fund firm run by LTCM alumnus Myron Scholes, has lost 13% this month on credit trades, putting it 10% down for the year, according to a person familiar with the fund. "
[This one has been added to the site]
- "Also, Farallon Capital Management LLC in San Francisco, which manages about $36 billion, has lost 5.6% this year through last week in its flagship Farallon Capital Partners fund. "
- "And Steven Cohen's SAC Multistrategy Fund is down about 3% this year through last week, according to investors. The Stamford, Conn., firm oversees $16 billion."

- "London-based Capula Investment Management"
- London Diversified

("both lost 4-5 per cent, investors said. None returned calls seeking comment.")

Anyone know more?
