Inside a Hedge Fund Manager’s Mind: Risk, Shorts and Absolute Returns | Paisa Vaisa

تفصیل

Traditional long-only investing is generally focused on finding securities that can increase in value. A hedge fund manager must also search for risks, weaknesses and opportunities on the short side. In this episode of Paisa Vaisa, we explore long–short and absolute-return investing from an Indian-market perspective. The conversation explains what hedge fund managers do, why they are “paid to be paranoid,” and how short positions can help express a negative market view or manage portfolio risk. We also examine the tortoise-versus-hare approach to investing: progressing steadily, avoiding damaging losses and focusing on consistency instead of chasing spectacular short-term returns. At the heart of the discussion is a simple philosophy take care of risk first, and allow returns to become a byproduct of disciplined decision-making. A useful introduction to hedge funds, short selling, market objectivity and professional risk management.From decoding your personal finances to demystifying business models, Paisa Vaisa delivers candid, insightful, and jargon-free conversations.Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, JioSaavn, Gaana & moreWatch full episodes right here on YouTubeExplore more at ivmpodcasts.comConnect with Anupam Gupta: Twitter: @b50Instagram: @b_50 LinkedIn: Anupam Gupta Follow IVM PodcastsWe’re @ivmpodcasts on Facebook, Twitter & InstagramSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
