When you are an accredited investor, you get offered a lot of these things. Stay away. The whole "risk adjusted" great returns are a red herring. No matter how well it does they will ALWAYS clip it and give you just enough. These things are seriously opaque.* When it does badly, they bail themselves out and leave you with a "market adjusted" loss. Bottom line unless you are into them for over 5 mil, you are a small fish and will get the "pedestrian" treatment because they don't care if you stick around. OTOH, if you got 5 mil to put into a fund like this, there are WAY better options because you are a 200+ mil person. *I had one where if you watched the time-sales, I actually saw my liquidation go off in some dark like pool, way off the spread. When they reported back you could see how they had a side fund they were using to buy and sell.
yes. they are but they net debit is less than the cost of the SPX. So you give the company $100,000 to invest in the SPX with this cap and buffer, but the structure really costs like 99,200.
What were you trading that you could see a listed trade? Most of these trade via OTC options and structures - often against the internal desk of the bank who then divvies up the risk and sells that off to hedgefunds.
Buy some SPX calls a little otm and bang out very short-duration calls against them. CF, at today's levels, should exceed well over 15%, Keep the balance of cash short term and appreciate that historical measures may not generate enough return. Tell you in a year.
It's just a bull spread, you can do it yourself. You would have to look at prices to understand if the 10% max los is doable for 15%, but can easily look that up.
It seems like such simple options at first glance, right? But just think about all the fees they might end up piling on us. It's like, imagine the little charges building up sneakily, turning into a big chunk of our budget before we even realize it! Definitely something to watch out for.
