Hedging Extraordinary Risk

Markets are exhibiting extraordinary risk. Here's how to hedge.

We have extraordinary risk, OK? Anyone telling you otherwise is blind, trying to sell you something, or just plain stupid.

It’s a result of the mispricing of assets globally, and that is 2 parts globally coordinated central bank policies which are skewing the cost of capital and 1 part market perception and reaction to market events.

I spend quite literally hours upon hours speaking with some of the sharpest investors on this ball of dirt and the overwhelming consensus is the same: asset prices have never been this distorted… ever.

The question is, how to hedge this?

I decided to cover this topic in a very short podcast I recorded for you.

I did this since it is in large part the shortened version of a conversation I had with 3 traders, all of whom can’t be divulged due to their respective positions at major institutions.

But seriously, all investments carry risk. Some of what I discuss arguably carries great risk. Investments which can lead to you losing 100% of your capital and maybe more if you are stupid and use margin. If you invest more than you can afford to lose, or borrow money from Joey down at the tavern, Master Card or Visa to make your investments, then you need to go and read a different website.
