Dealing with people like tenants, employees, contractors, government issues and then with unpredictable events like 911 that you mentioned, new bylaws, illiquidity when wanting to sell etc. is too much headache. What happens when one of the units has a drug dealer living as a guest and there...

May be some viability in this strategy but it is also taking "leverage" to very high levels. RE tanks or economy goes into slowdown and you are talking several months of vacant properties. Also in real estate ownership one does not know the "invisible expenses" that are incurred while...

One thing with stocks is it can dip by upto 100%. That's not true with real estate. You can have bad tenants or even no tenants for few months. Real estate can also be a "headache" to get rid off unlike stocks which can be done with a single click on the computer. Long run, real estate pays...

Expect more such news to create major down ticks on the market. Establishment is hell bent of impeaching Trump and Flynn development is just a beginning.

Can ninja connect to interactive brokers for automated orders? Thx.

Get an auto and mate inside it then exchange some currency.............automated trader strikes again !!

That is only one of the several risk related factors of the HFs. If running off to Brazil is one of the major factors then SEC will quickly put in the rule whereby HFs only have trading access to the funds but no ability to withdraw funds and disappear to Brazil or other countries. Another...

I would disagree here a little. Most MNW invest in hedge funds because they can stand and sustain the "extra risk" that these types of funds bring on the table while promising "little extra" returns. That is why SEC's rules allow HFs to accept only accredited investors with above average risk...

This metric should be broken down into funds from 0-500M in AUM 500-1B in AUM 1B and above Once the AUM reaches certain point it becomes hard to take quick positions and exit them. Greedy bastards refuse to hire more analytical support to dive into more stocks and instruments. Also hedge...
