PRESS RELEASE – C8 Announces new Cirdan Certificate C8 Multi-Asset Global Opportunities

London, 21 March 2022 – C8, the pioneering fintech platform that offers investors the ability to use direct indexing across all liquid asset classes and investment styles, today announces that Cirdan Capital has issued an Actively Managed Certificate (AMC), C8 Multi-Asset Global Opportunities
(GMAO), based on C8’s Diversified Risk Premia Index.

The certificate’s robustness and long-term continuity are maintained through diversification and the tactical allocation of capital into selected constituent portfolios. The index targets a Sharpe ratio of over 2. The certificate is available to both retail and accredited investors.
The product is made up of five uncorrelated constituent portfolios, active on commodities, rates, equity index futures, FX and US cash equities. These portfolios are diversified by investment style and theme, covering alternative risk-premia, equity risk-premia, ESG, macro and some technical aspects of price action.

Mattias Eriksson, Co-founder and CEO, C8 Technologies said: “In times of volatility and uncertainty, we recognise the need for portfolios with little correlation to traditional equity and bond products. We’re seeing increased demand for diversified risk premia products in response to the current, volatile global markets, driven by inflation concerns and geopolitical uncertainty.  C8’s GMAO is a portfolio of portfolios that carefully manages the risk allocation to each underlying portfolio, making it robust and ensuring its longevity. The C8 GMAO was built using the indices and innovative tools available on our C8 platform, then issued as a certificate by Cirdan Capital.”

The certificate is listed on the Frankfurt and Milan stock exchanges from today.

C8 Hedge – Currency Compass – Election Special – November 2024

The strong USD bias worked well for our FX models last month, with our dynamic hedge adding over 1% outperformance for EURUSD and GBPUSD, and over 3% for USDJPY.  We note, however, that our models have now moved to neutral for the USD against the EUR and GBP, though still look for higher USDJPY.  Reducing FX risk may well be sensible given the closeness of the US Presidential election, and doubts about the accuracy of polls. Though, as we note overleaf, late momentum now marginally favours Harris. Read more →

Thoughts From the Divide:  Tremendous

BY JON WEBB
While there is likely some argument within the Administration as to whether supply chain shocks are both necessary and sufficient or simply necessary (mirrored by the Fed’s own divergence in views), it’s clear that Yellen and the White House are not too concerned about the Philips Curve, nor seem to put stock in John Cochrane’s “fiscal theory of the price level”. After all, Yellen is still quoted as saying that the US is on a responsible fiscal path, despite the deficit (which is, as Mosler notes, the public’s surplus). Or perhaps they think that with some proper cajoling, the greedflation genie can be put back in the bottle (at least temporarily) as CEO’s find a renewed sense of civic virtue and community? We wouldn’t hold our breath. Read more →
