Key Book Excerpts

-From Chapter 9:

(In regards to managed futures lack of correlation to just about every market, including the markets in which the CTAs trade), "here is one of the most significant yet little-discussed truisms in managed futures: Regardless of the individual CTAs who may come and go, the core contract structure is the primary tool that crafts the product, and that tool is unique because of the contract structure and markets traded."
