Opalesque Industry Update, for New Managers - Synchronicity Futures, LLC, a licensed Commodity Trading Advisor (CTA) has launched the Commodity Long-Short Program* with a $10m commitment from the Dickson Family of Detroit, Michigan. The Program aims to maximize long-term absolute returns with low correlation to both commodity and equity markets through a diversified and liquid portfolio of commodity futures contracts that are systematically managed. The Commodity Long-Short Program* is designed to provide Institutional money managers, Registered Investment Advisors, and High-Net-Worth individuals with a diversified, liquid, and non-correlated product that can enhance the risk-adjusted returns of their existing portfolio holdings. The Program can invest across 22 liquid commodity contracts including grains, livestock, soft goods, precious and industrial metals, and energy. A unique aim of the Program is to systematically capitalize on rising and falling opportunities so that returns have very low correlation with commodity and equity markets. Synchronicity Futures began trading The Commodity Long-Short Program* on October 3rd with funding from the Dickson Family of Detroit, Michigan who have a long track record in commodities investments. An uncertain equity environment and an abundance of correlated products are combining to create real demand for high-return, low-correlation investment solutions, said Ben Upward Chief Investment Officer and Managing Principal of Synchronicity Futures. We believe our new systematic, low-correlation commodity program can be valuable to traditional and alternative-focused investors enabling them to achieve truly differentiated outcomes with greater transparency. Synchronicity Futures, LLC was founded in July 2015 and trades futures contracts on domestic and foreign exchanges in energy, currency, equity, interest rate, metals and soft goods sectors marketing to CPO and Hedge Fund, Institutional, RIA and High-Net-Worth clients. It is headquartered in Birmingham MI. The Dickson Family has memberships at the Chicago Board of Trade and Chicago Mercantile Exchange, and manages a portfolio of Commodity Trading Advisors and proprietary traders. *Open to Qualified Eligible Persons (QEPs) only Article source - Opalesque is not responsible for the content of external internet sites |
