Investor's passport to hedge fund profits: unique investment strategies for today's global capital markets

Chapter 1 discusses the importance of international investing in today's markets, and chapter 2 discusses the macro relationships between the different asset classes within a given country, and shows readers how to view those asset classes (i.e., stocks, bonds, currencies, and commodities) as a complete picture of what is happening in the investing world. In this way, the book helps readers avoid the classic mistake of overlooking the early signals frequently given off in ancillary asset classes that serve as an important cue to bigger changes coming in primary markets. After the overview of the first two chapters, the authors then address the application of strategies to international portfolio development and management. The books remaining chapters are divided up over three parts: the first section, entitled Profiting like a Hedge Fund in theGlobal Marketplace, contains chapters on investment in stock, bond, and moneymarket/CD instruments. The section clearly defines the markets (something notalways done very well on behalf of internationally-curious traders), and discusses how they can best be accessed and traded. The section that follows, Turbocharge Your Global Investing through Unique Alternatives, features chapters on currency trading, investing in foreign real estate, and such things as swapsand futures trading. And the last section, entitled Pulling It All Together, features a chapter on portfolio management strategies that also delves into effective risk management.Sean D.
