HEDGING OVERLAY
HEDGING STRATEGY
The goal of the hedging strategy is threefold:
1. Minimize the portfolio’s drawdown
2. Lessen the portfolio’s volatility
3. Generate alpha
HEDGING TACTICAL PROCESS
There are 3 tactical steps in the execution of the hedging process:
1. The neutral market position is set at 20% of the stock portfolio, ex-cash
2. The hedging position will deviate from the neutral market position to underweight or
overweight, based on macro fundamental, technical, and capital flow factors
3. The combination of various futures instruments ( for example, S&P 500 futures,
Nasdaq 100 futures, and Russell 2000 futures) is determined by a proprietary
hedging model
HEDGING P&L IMPACT
The hedging strategy is an “insurance” policy in anticipation of an adverse market event
The hedging tactical process limits drawdowns, and potentially generates alpha

2020 CORRECTION
CASE STUDY
*BSD’s Global Technology Hedge Fund benchmark is a 50/50 Nasdaq/Russell and any references to other indices are made for information purposes only; including the S&P/TSX Composite Index (Canada’s primary exchange) which is the 9th largest stock exchange in the world, based on the market capitalization. It is the equivalent of the
S&P 500 market index in the USA. Since the S&P/TSX is comprised of Canada's largest and most prominent companies, it is often used as a barometer for the health of the Canadian economy. Used here, the S&P/TSX has two primary functions: to provide an easily understood snapshot of how Canada's public companies are performing, and
to provide a benchmark against which fund managers can compare their results to assess their success.
