How to protect your money from this stock market’s wild volatility (via MktwHulbert)
There’s a surprisingly easy and profitable trading strategy to use during extraordinary stock-market volatility like now.
We’ve been taught for years that avoiding the market’s volatility exacts too high a price. Aren’t the market’s best returns produced in the wake of high volatility, not low? This historical result, coupled with a separate characteristic of market volatility, is what makes this strategy straightforward and profitable. I’m referring to the tendency for periods of high volatility to be clustered. It’s because of this tendency that you can sidestep most of the market’s high-volatility sessions by hedging at their first sign.
