The stock market moves in two directions... It’s a fact of life. The key to being on the winning side regardless of which way it moves—UP or DOWN—is hedge funds. That’s right, hedge funds have a history of making profits in both rising and falling markets, and therefore play an important role in the diversification of investment portfolios. We at ISG will be delighted to sit down with you and discuss how these unique investment tools could bring added value to your financial planning efforts.
The graph shown above illustrates how a hedge fund can provide benefits to a traditional investment portfolio through diversification. Shown is a comparison between the results of a hedge fund and regular markets as they reacted to the IT bubble in 2000.
The hedge fund performed well during the upward market trend from 1995 - 2000, but the major difference is evident when the bull market ended in mid-2000. If you want the opportunity to hedge your portfolio, the place to be is alternative investments.
