Market Risk Warning
Blair Jensen | Jun 26, 2016 01:29AM ET
Just a quick note, my Market Risk Indicator is warning today. As a result, the portfolio allocations are now as follows:
Volatility Hedged portfolio: 50% long and 50% hedged with mid term volatility (and ETF/ETN similar to NYSE:VXZ)
Long / Short Hedged portfolio: 50% long high beta stocks and 50% hedged with mid term volatility
Long / Cash portfolio: 100% cash
I suspect it will take a couple of weeks to see what the fallout of Brexit will be. Until the market has less risk the portfolios will remain hedged or in cash.
FYI, the market risk warning takes precedence over my core market health indicators.
