    I've been wondering that too, it's been suffering more than most other stocks on my watch list and found it curious. I just found this Motley Fool article though:

    The Magellan Financial Group Ltd (ASX: MFG) share price dropped 6.3% to $23.35 as investors bet that equity market falls will take a toll on the fund manager’s funds under management (FUM). Most fund managers charge a percentage of FUM as their fee, so lower FUM means lower revenues. However, Magellan’s share price has now lost more than 16% year-to-date – double the losses on US and Australian share markets – suggesting it may have been oversold.

    I sold out at $26.36 several weeks ago because I needed the funds elsewhere. Glad I did now! Looking to get back in at some point when things look more stable.
