Can anyone explain to me what a hedge fund is in a simple manner?

Thank you all

It's just an investment fund, could be small/big or formal/informal -- but typically, when someone mentions a hedge fund, you assume that it is a legitimate investment fund trading large amounts of money (i.e. billions of dollars)
