In this episode of Retire with Style, Wade Pfau and Alex Murguia explore the complex world of hedge funds, focusing on strategies like global macro, event-driven, and managed futures. They explain the role of derivatives, the impact of forecasting, and how these approaches can complement a broader investment portfolio, especially in the context of retirement planning.   Takeaways Derivatives are contracts whose value depends on an underlying asset. Global macro strategies rely on macroeconomic trends and require strong forecasting skills. Event-driven strategies aim to profit from corporate actions such as mergers and acquisitions. Managed futures use trend-following techniques to trade commodities, currencies, and other assets. Understanding the distinction between futures and options is essential for informed investing. Hedge funds typically require accredited investor status due to their complexity and risk profile. Hedge fund performance can vary widely depending on market conditions and strategy selection. Managed futures often have low correlation with traditional stock and bond markets, offering diversification benefits. Investors should evaluate how hedge fund strategies align with their broader investment objectives.   Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Hedge Funds and Market Trends 02:34 Understanding Derivatives in Investing 10:14 Exploring Global Macro Strategies 20:29 Diving into Event-Driven Strategies 30:36 Managed Futures: Trend Following Approaches 40:05 Conclusion and Future Discussions   Links  Explore the New RetireWithStyle.com!

I'm frequently asked for the best marine weather apps. Cruising the Florida coast and Bahamas, I've found a few favorites. Summary Apps are helpful. But don't forget to look out the hatch to see what's happening in your area.  If you need more information, here's what we relied on while cruising Florida and the Bahamas. Windy Windy is great for a color-coded, big-picture view of the wind, wave, and rain forecasts. The motion feature shows changes over the hours and days. We've found Windy pretty accurate. It does require internet access to use. RADAR Radar programs come and go. So I can't recommend a specific one. I prefer ones that show how fast the storm cells are moving and in what direction. Hurricane Tracker Everything Hurricane Tracker offers is available on the (US) National Hurricane Center website. What Hurricane Tracker does brilliantly is to make the information easy to access. This is critical if you either have slow internet or pay by data used. For each storm (and Invest and Potential Storm), Hurricane Tracker has all the NHC maps, satellite images, and the official forecasts and analysis. It's quick and easy to tap or click from one to another. Its ease of use is why I'm willing to pay for lifetime access. Marine Weather Center Marine Weather Center is the “proper” name for what most East Coast and Caribbean cruisers call “Chris Parker's weather.” Chris and his staff are full-time marine forecasters for this area and provide subscription forecasts by SSB and email. Subscribe via SSB to talk with him during his designated times for your location. But we use email for time to digest the information. Chris is a former cruiser who understands weather as it applies to boats. And he's trained other forecasters to do the same. Forecasts are quite accurate. They tend to err on the side of caution.  To read and for cost information for the apps or information about apps for other cruising grounds, visit Favorite Weather Apps or listen to the complete podcast.
