Death of Diversification - II

SAMEER SAYS
THE ABOVE IS A LINK TO A POST I MADE ON APRIL 1ST , 2011 THIS YEAR
PLS SEE BELOW WHAT I HAD SAID
THINGS ARE UNFOLDING EXACTLY AS I HAD SAID IN APRIL
====
Diversification is a MYTH
1ST APRIL , 2011
It is also DEAD
Since early 2009 - SPX , CRB , FOHF ie risky assets have all moved UP
DXY has moved down - so this makes sense too - it is a RISK OFF trade
10 YS US Rates haved moved UP so bond prices have moved down - This also makes sense
HY Spreads have moved down - so HY bond prices are up - so this makes sense too
But look at the way they have moved - in 3 steps UP
All in the same direction - in the same style - in 3 steps
Rising liquidity has lifted all risky boats - but this has to end at some point as this cant go on forever.
When we approach that TIPPING POINT - trust me - all these assets will head lower - not only lower - but they will crash
Only the DXY will be UP and this is the asset you MUST own
I am saying it again and again.
Also VIX is one thing that will rise as SPX collapses all the way to 666.
Fund of Hedge Funds will have a very tough time - in general.
The death of diversification has sown the seeds of destruction for the HF industry.
I am sure looking back from 2015 or 2020 - the HF space will look very different.
Let us wait and watch.
