Dollars and Sense in Managed Futures Funding

Our newsletter is out for the week, and we’re digging into the nuts and bolts of managed futures funding. For the average investor, managed futures investments may seem like a pipe dream. The idea of $1 million as a minimum investment can be off-putting for some. Even the more seasoned investor may cringe at the idea of tying up $1 million as a diversification play.
