Diversification from traditional stock and bond investments is critical. We have all seen how crazy the markets can be. Many people find value in having a professional Commodity Trading Advisor (or CTA) manage day-to-day responsibility and trading of their account. Foremost provides an excellent venue for participation in a variety of structured, consistent-return, low-volatility products including futures, options, foreign exchange, and base commodities.
We do not suggest just any managed futures program or Commodity Trading Advsior that we find to our customers. We select only those managers who we believe have the best performance history and lowest volatility. We believe in these hand-picked managers so much that we have company accounts trade each of them using our own money! When you ask us about a particular CTA, most of the time we can give you a first-hand testimonial.
What Is A CTA?
Be sure to check out the page What Is A CTA?. There you will learn the basics about what CTA’s are and how you can participate.
How Can I Research Various CTA’s?
There are many different CTA’s available, each with their own risk-reward profile. At Foremost we can help direct you to the CTA’s which match your style of investing along with your goals. In fact, we’re happy to provide an easy-to-use tool which you can use to search for CTA’s matching your personal investment style. You can even see how multiple CTA programs traded simultaneously would have performed in the past!
