Risk & MarketsWhy fat tails matter: the limits of the bell curve
Traditional models assume extreme market moves are vanishingly rare. History says otherwise — and portfolios should be built for the market we actually have.
Risk & MarketsAntifragility: building portfolios that benefit from disorder
Robust portfolios survive shocks. Antifragile portfolios are positioned to gain from them. The difference lies in the shape of the payoff.
Portfolio ConstructionTail-risk hedging and the hidden volatility tax
Losses hurt more than gains help. Understanding this “volatility tax” explains why a small, deliberate hedge can improve long-term compounding.
