INVESTING INVOLVES RISK, INCLUDING POTENTIAL LOSS OF CAPITAL.
MFUT: This fund is new and has a limited operating history. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its investment goal. Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Commodities Risk: Exposure to the commodities markets may subject the Fund to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. Fixed Income Securities Risk: The prices of fixed income securities respond to economic developments, particularly interest rate changes, as well as to changes in an issuer’s credit rating or market perceptions about the creditworthiness of an issuer. Foreign Securities Risk: The Fund may invest in foreign securities. Such investments involve certain risks not involved in domestic investments and may experience more rapid and extreme changes in value than investments in securities of U.S. companies. Leverage Risk: The derivative instruments in which the Fund may invest provide the economic effect of financial leverage by creating additional investment exposure to the underlying instrument, as well as the potential for greater loss. If the Fund uses leverage through purchasing derivative instruments, the Fund has the risk that losses may exceed the net assets of the Fund. Derivatives Risk: Derivatives are financial instruments that derive value from the underlying reference asset or assets, such as stocks, bonds, commodities, currencies, funds (including ETFs), interest rates or indexes. Short Selling Risk: If a security sold short or other instrument increases in price, the Fund may have to cover its short position at a higher price than the short sale price, resulting in a loss. Commodity-Linked Derivatives Tax Risk: The tax treatment of commodity-linked derivative instruments may be adversely affected by changes in legislation, regulations, or other legally binding authority. Non-Diversification Risk: Because the Fund is “non-diversified,” it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer or a smaller number of issuers than if it was a diversified fund.

Meb--- Thanks for having Jerry on the show (he's one of my trend following heros!)... Always learn and come away with something when Jerry is on

[@benchpress200]

great interview; would love to hear Rob Carver's perspective on the same topics 🙏

[@chriso.8551]

Anyone able to find that AQR data going back to ~1900? I couldn't. Meb mentions it in first few minutes.

[@yanivpete]

I've been tracking this fund as well as Simplify's version (CTA). To date CTA has performed MUCH better. MFUT hasn't been around long so maybe not fair to compare, but it is concerning.

[@bradarcova7636]

I noticed that too. To be fair, you have to compare the funds currency/bonds/equities/commodities ratios. They're probably both long or short on the same opportunities but with different ratios, volatility, leverage and expiry. To my knowledge, they're both formula/model funds rather than "manager's discretion" funds. There's no such thing as a "correct" allocation/expiry/volatility model. Some will do better in some economic environments than in others. I value a fixed rules-based model rather than manager discretion. Trend following has pretty much sucked over the past 2 years because markets have been pretty directionless except for the MAG 7. Nevertheless, I'm 25% trend-following. I think markets are poised to take a very decisive direction. This if from somebody who's been 90/10 equities/fixed incomefor the past 40 years. Because of valuations, interest rates and potential inflation, 90/10 is likely to be a dog for the next10 years. I like Cambria, I'm keeping this fund on my watch list.

[@benchpress200]

Damn MFUT has been down only since inception, -20%

[@yanivpete]

I guess they're following the wrong trend. They need to adopt the Costanza method (whatever your instinct is, do the opposite)

[@timwerner7620]

@@yanivpete My instinct is to avoid MFUT. I'm also wrong about everything. Should I buy it or is this an "irresistible force meets an immovable object" type of situation.

[@user-hn9xm5ix5j]

I know…somehow I wonder if this fund is getting all the attention it deserves. Perhaps Jerry is spread too thin

[@togoni]

Everyone should check out Cambria TAIL fund performance before trusting these two 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@rosssmith1062]

Instead of a tail hedge fund like, TAIL, a better comparison is the other trend funds advised by Chesapeake, TFPN and EQCHX

[@togoni]

@@rosssmith1062 Yes, check the TFPN and EQCHX performance for one year. What is there to brag about?? Heavily underperforming S&P? Where is the positive side?
