Hedge Funds for Canadians (Softcover) by Peter Beck

Frustrated with mutual fund and stock market performance? Looking for alternative ways to invest your money? Hedge your bets with Hedge Funds!? It's no secret that stock market performance over recent years has been disappointing, to say the least-or abysmal, to be more realistic. And when the markets go down, mutual funds go down with them. So what are Canadian investors to do? Hedge funds are alternative investments that are designed to provide investors with strong returns during both bull and bear markets. Often misunderstood by the average investor, the popularity of hedge funds has been growing rapidly in Canada, thanks to regulatory changes and the continued poor performance of more traditional investment vehicles. More widely available than ever before, hedge funds can reduce overall risk and volatility, and improve performance regardless of the general stock market direction. Note this is the 2004 edition. Suggested price $26.95. Our price $9.95. Save 63%.
