Everyone down, now everyone back up (except you commodities…). Seems like everything has been moving in tandem of late, with everything reversing their July losses for gains in August.

And meanwhile, managed futures has been hanging in there pretty well given how poor of an environment it’s been with the ultra-low volatility. {past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results}.
