This chapter explores the role of managed futures in alternative investments, highlighting their potential long-term returns and low correlation with traditional assets during market downturns. The discussion also includes portfolio rebalancing strategies and how managed futures can align with overall asset volatility.
In this episode we answer emails from Steve, Grant, and Alexi (a/k/a "the Dude"). We discuss investing in managed futures and property and casualty insurance companies, rebalancing mechanisms and fitting those into a portfolio, Grant's various gambling problems with leveraged funds and assorted Metaverse doom-scrolling, and the recent annoying changes with Portfolio Visualizer. And our charitable push for our charity, the Father McKenna Center --get the match!
