NEW YORK/LONDON, May 1 (Reuters) - Global hedge funds ExodusPoint, Citadel, Schonfeld Strategic Advisors posted positive returns in a tumultuous April, when equities, bonds, currencies and commodities endured wild swings triggered by U.S. tariff announcements.

Michael Gelband's ExodusPoint gained 2.83% last month, while Citadel's flagship fund was up 1.3% and Schonfeld's Strategic Partners rose 1.1%, according to sources.

Man Group's multi-strategy fund also finished April up 0.52%, according to its website, while AQR Apex Strategy fell 0.7%, a person familiar with the matter said.

All five funds are in the multi-strategy category, which is able to trade across asset classes and geographies through many small investment teams within the firms.

Other Citadel funds also posted positive performances last month. The tactical trading fund rose 1.9%, while the global equities fund gained 2.2%, and the global fixed income fund rose 1.2%, a source said.
