Here’s how 2019’s top-performing hedge fund has made a killing this year

His approach is NOT for the faint of heart.

In 2016, Chong Chin Eai raised $24 million from friends and family and launched his Singapore-based Vanda Global Fund. Then Trump won the election, and, according to Bloomberg, the hedge fund suddenly was off more than 50%.

“A lot of fund managers would’ve just given up after six months to start a brand new track record,” Chong told Bloomberg in an interview. “But I wanted to show investors the flow of the fund and the growth of the fund, both in terms of the performance and also in myself.”

Key yield curve inverts even further as 30-year yield hits new record low

At around 03:20 a.m. ET, the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note, which moves inversely to price, was lower at around 1.4593%, while the yield on the 30-year Treasury bond hit record low to trade at 1.9072%.

A 10-year rate below the 2-year yield is viewed by fixed income traders as an important recession prognosticator, marking an unusual phenomenon as bondholders receive better compensation in the short term.

Caterpillar Inc Stock Chart 8-28-19

Many key stocks are trading below the 200 simple moving average. It's getting hard to find confident swing trades (something we can hold for 3-10 days)

This chart of CAT clearly shows the same, but it's hovering near long-term support. I'm considering building a new "position" trade with 30% of my intended position.

Stop loss is tight and risk is lower with proper allocation. Definitely not a trade with order flow but I won't short support. Trade shows $28 upside risking on $2.
