Rock Canyon Top Flight Long-Short Fund is built on the premise that in any given investment environment there is a unique set of factors that cause investors to prefer one investment style over another. Fund manager Jonathan Ferrell is trying to identify style trends that will persist for some time and create a return stream that has the ability to outperform in any market environment and has a low level of correlation with the market itself and with other traditional strategies.
