A loaf of bread, a stick of butter, a managed account…
We don’t like the old school buy and hold stock approach, as many of you know. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t some smart people out there talking about stocks. Barry Ritholtz and Josh Brown, for starters. We respect them because they have long scoffed at the idea of “buy, hold and pray” as an […]
Weekend Reads
Just when you think things might settle down… the Fed twists everyone up, stocks swing like a pendulum on a mission, Europe’s game of “Let’s Pretend” loses its luster, commodities take a nose dive, the barbarous relic drops faster than stocks after an Obama speech… and we still have two weeks to go until the […]
Turns out E*Trade doesn’t like being called out…
Earlier this year, we criticized E*Trade for their “it’s-so-easy-a-baby-can-do-it” rendering of trading. In our mind, it’s definitely misleading material- at best. But we weren’t the only ones who thought so… CollegeHumor.com, known for their humorous videos and articles that rely on parody to get a laugh, put together a video called “E-Trade Baby Loses Everything.” […]
Silver Slaughter
We wrote earlier about Gold taking it on the chin, but what has been going on over the past two days in Silver (-12% today, -35% from 2011 highs, and going after 2011 lows) and, to a lesser extent, Platinum (-5% today and at new 2011 lows) is enough to make you scared to ever go […]
Disclaimers
Managed futures, commodity trading, forex trading, and other alternative investments are complex and carry a risk of substantial losses. As such, they are not suitable for all investors. You should not rely on any of the information as a substitute for the exercise of your own skill and judgment in making such a decision on the appropriateness of such investments.
The entries on this blog are intended to further subscribers understanding, education, and – at times – enjoyment of the world of alternative investments. Unless distinctly noted otherwise, the data and graphs included herein are intended to be mere examples and exhibits of the topic discussed, are for educational and illustrative purposes only, and do not represent trading in actual accounts. Opinions expressed are that of the author.
The mention of specific asset class performance (i.e. +3.2%, -4.6%) is based on the noted source index (i.e. Newedge CTA Index, S&P 500 Index, etc.), and investors should take care to understand that any index performance is for the constituents of that index only, and does not represent the entire universe of possible investments within that asset class. And further, that there can be limitations and biases to indices such as survivorship, self reporting, and instant history.
The performance data for various Commodity Trading Advisor (“CTA”) and Commodity Pools are compiled from various sources, including Barclay Hedge, RCM’s own estimates of performance based on account managed by advisors on its books, and reports directly from the advisors. These performance figures should not be relied on independent of the individual advisor’s disclosure document, which has important information regarding the method of calculation used, whether or not the performance includes proprietary results, and other important footnotes on the advisor’s track record.
The mention of general asset class performance (i.e. managed futures did well, stocks were down, bonds were up) is based on RCM’s direct experience in those asset classes, estimates of performance of dozens of CTAs followed by RCM, and averaging of various indices designed to track said asset classes.
The mention of market based performance (i.e. Corn was up 5% today) reflects all available information as of the time and date of the publication.
The owner of this blog, RCM Alternatives, may receive various forms of compensation from certain investment managers highlighted and/or mentioned within the blog, including but not limited to retaining: a portion of trade commissions, a portion of the fees charged to investors by the investment managers, a portion of the fees for operating a fund for the investment managers via affiliate Attain Portfolio Advisors, or via direct payment for marketing services.
Managed Futures Disclaimer:
Past Performance is Not Necessarily Indicative of Future Results. The regulations of the CFTC require that prospective clients of a managed futures program (CTA) receive a disclosure document when they are solicited to enter into an agreement whereby the CTA will direct or guide the client’s commodity interest trading and that certain risk factors be highlighted. The disclosure document contains a complete description of the principal risk factors and each fee to be charged to your account by the CTA.
