Shocked that companies and mutual funds would invest OPM (Other People's Money) in high-risk investments, the Shocked Investor was originally on a mission to find out if our money ended up in these dubious instruments. This blog now also discusses other financial topics, such as straddles, options, gold, natural gas, agri/food stocks, and the collapse of the US Dollar.
Bonds have dropped considerably, TLT lost 7% since August 31, when we posted the straddles. Below is the current status of our straddles on TLT. +44% ROI, not bad for 13 days.
This is why we do straddles as opposed to try to predict market direction using all kinds of funny analyses.
