Summary
Hedgeye Risk Management has released "Master The Market: A Hedge Fund Manager's Guide to Process and Profit," a 52-page eBook written by the firm's Founder and CEO, Keith McCullough, according to a PR Newswire release. The company says the guide sets out the investment strategies McCullough has developed over decades on Wall Street, aimed at both novice and experienced investors seeking to protect portfolios and capitalize on opportunities in any market environment.
The eBook covers using market signals to time trades, managing risk in volatile environments, and avoiding severe drawdowns. Its central framework is a back-tested system called the "Four Quads," which delineates the economic cycle. In the foreword, veteran hedge fund manager Mike Taylor, who has worked as a PM at Citadel and Millennium Management, writes that the framework explains what to buy, when to buy, and when to sell. Taylor says the Hedgeye process helped him navigate the 2008 market turmoil and continues to shape his own strategy.
The book also includes an endorsement from Dan Rasmussen, Founder and Portfolio Manager of Verdad Capital, who describes McCullough's quantitative macro research as the best on Wall Street. The eBook recounts McCullough's career as a Portfolio Manager at Dawson Herman Capital Management, Magnetar Capital and Carlyle-Blue Wave, and his founding of Hedgeye during the 2008 financial crisis.
The release is promotional in nature. The company describes Hedgeye as serving large institutional investors managing more than $10 trillion in assets, with a team of over 40 analysts covering more than 1,000 stocks and ETFs. The eBook is offered free of charge. Its claims about Hedgeye's track record, including the firm's prediction of U.S. market crashes and its buy/sell hit rate, are the company's and its endorsers' own characterizations and have not been independently verified in the release.
