Cc: Paul Morris; Stewart Oldfield; Vahe Stepanian; Ariane Dwyer; Richard Kahn Subject: RE: Idea for US equity hedging... [C] Classification: Confidential Most investors are familiar with the usual negative correlation between bonds and equities, often relying in bond/equity portfolio allocations as a hedge. They believe their portfolios to be protected because they have observed equities sell- offs being followed by bond rallies and vice versa. We wanted to follow-up on the hedges below in light of the recent price action. Last week we observed two trading days with sell-offs in both bonds and equities in the US. We think this is scenario worth noting given (i) the upcoming Fed lift-off, (ii) the potential reversal of a secular bull market in bonds, which started in the 1980ies, (iii) elevated equity valuations, a potential result of monetary policy stimulus. With the hedge below, an investor can get up to 5x their premium in the event of a shallow sell-off in both equities and bonds. Happy to discuss in further details.
