Market neutral

Description

Market Neutral: State-of-the-Art Strategies for Every Market Environment goes beyond the recent hyperbole and drama to present insightful, reasonable, and well-researched articles on this valuable and necessary tool. Far from being new and unproven, the market-neutral investing structure has been around in one form or another for at least half of a century. From its use as the cornerstone of the A.W. Jones 1949 investment partnership, considered the first hedge fund by investment historians, through the critical 1995 IRS ruling that long/short investing does not create unrelated business taxable income (UBTI), market-neutral investing has consistently weathered investment storms to earn its badge as a leading, fundamentally sound investment technique. Debunking the myths and half-truths that surround this often misunderstood topic, Market Neutral: State-of-the-Art Strategies for Every Market Environment contains 12 highly readable and definitive dissertations, edited by asset allocation series editors Jess Lederman and Robert A. Klein. The discerning reader is left with a clear and unequivocal portrait of market-neutral investing, the technique considered by many investment experts and scholars to be the most important single investment development rising on today's asset-building horizon.
