It should be noted that ecology is not the only source of useful metaphors for financial activity. See Erturk et al. (forthcoming 2010 Erturk, I., Leaver, A. and Williams, K. forthcoming 2010. Hedge Funds as 'War Machine': Making the Positions Work. New Political Economy, 15(1)[Taylor & Francis Online] , [Google Scholar]) for an interesting analysis of hedge funds understood through the military analogy of war. Although no detailed research exists on investable indices, see Schneeweis et al. 2005 Schneeweis, T., Karavas, V. and DuBose, R. 2005. "Investable Hedge Fund Indices: Creation and Management".
