Strategy Description

Investment Objective & Portfolio Management: To simultaneously provide the potential for capital appreciation and preservation by employing a market- neutral investment approach. Such an approach combines two opposing positions, such as a long put & long call, and may make money as one position’s gain more than offsets the other’s loss regardless of market direction. Under such combined call & put positions, a loss may be realized if the market remains stable; similarly, any position executed by Shield Plus may lose money. To enhance the likelihood of capital appreciation, the investment approach pursues market-neutral positions in volatile markets. This strategy focuses only on the volatility in natural gas. And to maintain protection of principal, the market- neutral approach uses only fully-covered U.S. exchange-traded options. As a means of achieving added protection, this strategy does not borrow uncovered cash/securities to lever returns and risk. Further, unlike a long/short equity fund, where the long and short positions have two different underlying companies and unlimited risk, this strategy’s market-neutral positions have the same underlying market and calculable limited risk. Emphasis will be placed on achieving protected, absolute returns over a rolling two-year horizon rather than superior performance relative to an index or other benchmarks.
