La Jolla, CA (PRWEB) May 5, 2009 -- Jon Sundt, President and CEO of Altegris Investments, appeared on CNBC's Power Lunch to discuss the performance of managed futures and equities in today's volatile markets.
Mr. Sundt suggested that managed futures may represent an excellent option for investors seeking to diversify their existing portfolio. "The key for the investor is the non-correlation to equities," Sundt said. "Managed futures have the potential to do well regardless of how the stock market is doing."
Mr. Sundt also suggested that based on their risk tolerance and suitability, investors may wish to consider allocating a portion of their portfolio to managed futures. "The important thing is to have an allocation that is significant enough to affect your portfolio," Sundt said. As the broadcast discussed, the addition of managed futures to a diversified portfolio may help limit portfolio risk and increase overall returns. However, as with any investment, there is always a risk of loss.
