The Risks vs. Rewards of Hedge Funds (EP.610)
Description
Welcome back to Frankly Speaking.
There are a lot of myths surrounding hedge funds, particularly how much yield they create vs. how much it costs you to invest in them. Today I debunk some of those myths, and remind you of the risks vs. rewards of hedge funds. Remember, the better they do, the more risk they take with your money.
I also discuss some big changes coming to Curzio Research. We're getting ready to unveil some exciting new products… and share some special offers with our subscribers.
On today's episode, I also stress the importance of ignoring the market noise. Brexit... tariffs... it doesn't matter. You can always ride these waves with proper portfolio management.
