I don't do stock trading. I'm not a fan of the low volatility and the fundamental research for equities is... well... boring. I deal primarily in crude oil derivatives. Lots of leverage, lots of volume and lots of executions. It's far more hands on than the buy and hold type deals that many other investment management firms do with stocks and mutual funds. The YTD performance that we have managed with oil could not even be achieved with equities... but the stress level is through the roof.
