Quant Radio: A Risk Parity Approach to Leveraged ETFs

In this episode, we tackle the intriguing world of Risk Parity Portfolios with Leveraged ETFs. Learn how a balanced approach to portfolio management can aim to spread risk more evenly across diverse asset classes, moving away from just high-return chasing to a more strategic risk management approach. 

We'll explore:

• The Concept of Risk Parity: Discover how this strategy aims to balance risk instead of maximizing return, likening a portfolio to a well-rounded team where each asset class contributes stability.
• Leveraged ETFs: See how these tools can amplify both gains and losses and why they require careful handling. We'll discuss key leveraged ETFs like TQQQ, SVXY, VXZ, TMF, EDZ, and UGL and how they contribute to a diversified portfolio.
• Advanced Risk Management: We cover beyond-the-basics risk measures like Conditional Value at Risk (CVR), volatility drag, and the importance of negative correlations among assets. You'll also hear why variance alone might not capture the full risk picture with leveraged ETFs.
