Jason Buck is a founding partner of Mutiny Fund, an asset management firm with a vision to make high-quality tail hedging solutions available to a wider community of investors. Their fund aggregates managers with different tail-hedge styles, including options strategies, VIX relative value, and short-term trend traders to manage tails of all shapes and sizes.
We cover:
- Why tail risk is best managed through the use of ensembles
- The so-called "Dragon Portfolio" as a risk-parity solution that adds an extra dimension of risk
- How to think about sizing tail-hedge strategies in portfolios
- How to make hay while the sun is shining while remaining positioned for a storm
- How to manage the behavioral challenges of strategic allocations to tail-risk strategies
Jason brought a lot more to this discussion than just a pitch for tail hedges. It's clear he's thought deeply about the investment problem in general and has a clear vision about how tail hedge strategies can fit into a broader portfolio structure.
