That's a software. 6 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 2: It's on the terminal. You can only get it if 7 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 2: you're a terminal user, but the terminal is sort of separate, 8 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 2: and then you bring up this separate package which can 9 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 2: customize and show you any data you want in equities, bonds, currencies, commodities. 10 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 2: It's phenomenal.

It's got 14 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 2: red and green and it has a cadence. This morning 15 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 2: it was sleepy, third week of August, fourth week of 16 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 2: August cadence, and then it was not. And of course 17 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 2: that was a presidential tweet on China.

They're obsessed 29 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 3: with the big tech trade. They want to know which 30 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 3: is going to persist or is it something which has 31 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 3: maybe run its course. But if you're looking at it 32 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 3: again for a longer time perspective, you don't see that 33 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 3: invested in losing much interest. They're just looking for what 34 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 3: is a buying opportunity. When can we really buy the 35 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 3: dip if there is going to be another. 36 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,239 Speaker 2: Dip see michel A, Principal Asset Management.

He's an equity strategist, but 41 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 2: it's really wrapped around derivative dynamics and use of derivatives 42 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 2: to support a stock market belief. He's very big right 43 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 2: now on hedging where you own a stock and you 44 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 2: write a call, and right means you wr ite right 45 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 2: like with a pencil. You bring in premium which adds 46 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 2: to your return immediately, and the price of that is 47 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 2: you give up any ginormous upside value down the road. Here, 48 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 2: Greg Battle an option writing, I. 49 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 4: Think you have to think about what are the risks 50 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 4: that you are worried about.

I think the smaller midcaps, 57 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 4: so the Russell IWM, if you want to be nickel 58 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 4: short the market, then you have to be willing to 59 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 4: accept the risk that comes with For us, we think 60 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 4: there is better risk world profile and putting on hedges 61 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 4: on the downside owning optionality than there is naked short selling. 62 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 2: In tumultuous times.
