Description

In today’s episode, Richard Brennan takes us on a tour around the Australian economy and how the investment landscape is changing. We also discuss how different investment philosophies demand different interpretations and why the “one size fits all” approach does not exist, how cross-sectional momentum differs from absolute momentum. Lastly, we discuss why Richard uses an ensemble of trend following systems and why he always strives for maximum diversification, and why I feel we should not introduce divisiveness in the trend following industry and much more.-----EXCEPTIONAL RESOURCE: Find Out How to Build a Safer & Better Performing Portfolio using this FREE NEW Portfolio Builder Tool-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT’s TRUE ? – most CIO’s read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “The Many Flavors of Trend Following” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Rich on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps:01:04 - What is happening in Australia at the moment?07:53 - The investment landscape is changing09:57 - Best UCITS Managed Futures Fund revealed13:17 - Industry performance update16:25 - Why does OJ keep rising?19:54 - There is no "one size fits all" approaches26:44 - How does cross-sectional momentum work?31:12 - The importance of correlation40:26 - Nuancing "treating all markets equally"48:00 - The use of continuous signals53:03 - How does absolute momentum works?59:13 - Discussing sample size01:01:30 - The principle of no selection bias01:04:16 - Why Rich uses traditional risk measures01:06:56 - Letting profits run to their conclusion01:08:03 - Single asset level risk vs portfolio level risk01:08:59...
