Our guest on the Morning Mail today is Institutional Derivatives Adviser Mike Saba.
Our weekly publication The View from the Outer was released yesterday. Included in this edition are thoughts from Mike on equity market index protection (a method of how to hedge or “insure” your portfolio against price downside for a defined period of time). We discuss how this mechanism works, the potential cost of putting it in place and how to assist funding this cost via investing in a basket of high yield stocks that more than offset the cost of the insurance to give yield and full upside to the stocks.
Note that The View from the Outer this week has been compiled by Research Analyst Jodie Baker who is currently based in the United States. It provides great insight into the retail sector for investors here in Australia.
