For most of this new episode of your Money Today, I visit with Co-portfolio Manager Brad Lamensdorf of the Advisor Shares Ranger Equity Bear ETF (NYSEArca-HDGE).
HDGE has been shining so far in 2025, UP about 15% for the year against about a 7% decline in the S&P 500 through late this week.
More important, HDGE does not employ the money-burning options and related strategies of the typical inverse ETFs that focus robotically on shorting various indices/sectors; so in relative terms there is less risk with HDGE.
You’ll learn why HDGE is our single biggest portfolio weighting in ETFs. Its active strategy focusing on a few key factors is one I expect will continue to perform well for us as this secular bear market unfolds. Further, I suspect you will find as I have over time that the clinical, NON- “religious” approach that Brad and his partner John Del Vecchio take makes GREAT sense!
