Just a Commodities Correction - Not the End of the Bull (Part 1) http://seekingalpha.com/article/91593-just-a-commodities-correction-not-the-end-of-the-bull-part-1?source=feed#comment-233780 233780 Usually before big Dow Jones correction commodities markets and currencies must udjust to new reality and those are volatile days that every day trader loves and waits and dreams about.
As Dow Jones in few weeks is going to hit the wall at 9000-9500 we must adjust in our other positions,one can not make money on each trade,so we chose a short index strategyas a Klondike so losses on other mistakes will be fully covered by you being long stocks.
Keep all you stocks,don't sell a single share as market with the help of Bernanke is going to rally 50% till December,don't sell,only buy,buy,buy.
It was a joke.]]>

Hedge Funds Changing Investment Tack http://seekingalpha.com/article/91573-hedge-funds-changing-investment-tack?source=feed#comment-233751 233751 99.99% of hedge funds lose money,why Hennessy,Hedge Fund Research,Tremont Advisers databases looks good,it is because from 1000 hedge funds 500 lost 99.99% in one month and another 500 funds made more that 90-110%.
That's why it looks always that hedge funds are low risk/high return vehicles but this is lie that nobody will tell you as all who cover hedge funds make bread and butter selling it to you.
Hedge funds that were wiped out,the one QVT Financial LP I know very good,just went broke in New York and is liquidating it's trading OTC book,after bleeding to death they tend to change team here and there,change the name of the fund and go hunting for clients again.
Most often they buy the same their hedge fund that went broke,with different ownership so they have tax incentive.
NEVER INVEST IN HEDGE FUNDS,to explain simply what they do,so all can understand would look like this:
50% of capital they buy Crude Oil Decebmer 2008 call option 160$,other 50% of capital they buy Crude Oil December 2008 put 60$.
If you think this is appropriate risk,go invest or listen to what they do,and you will lose everything.
