Managed
Futures
Managed futures
allow an investor to take advantage of the futures
and options
markets by employing Investment Managers and Commodity Trading Advisors (CTMs and
CTAs). These
professional commodity trading advisors make all trading decisions on your
behalf, as is the case with stock fund managers.
Managed futures accounts are means to diversify your portfolio
from today's volatile stock market. Independent studies point out, a stock and bond portfolio diversified with only 20% in
Managed Futures could increase overall performance as much as 50% with comparable risk.
If you are the type of trader/investor that does not have the time to track commodities but
you would like to take advantage of the opportunities commodities have to offer, then you
may want to consider a Managed Futures account. The dollar amount invested in the
managed futures industry has increased from approximately 20 billion dollars to
approximately 30 billion dollars in one year.
A Managed Futures account
can offer diversification from traditional asset classes such as stocks and bonds.
Managed Futures
offer investors not only an alternative investment approach to traditional
security-based portfolios, but also a high leverage, and ability to profit
from both up and down sides of the market.
