Global Macro Trading for Idiots

Global Macro Trading for Idiots (GMTFI) is CitriniResearch’s free educational series teaching subscribers how to implement a truly cross-asset approach and find unique and asymmetric opportunities to hedge their equity curves and neutralize implicit macro exposures in equity portfolios by utilizing classic global macro trades like FX, STIR, Bond Futures, Curve Trades and Sovereign Credit Spreads. The focus of this series is not on teaching you macroeconomics - you can find plenty of other places to learn about that - but rather it is focused on teaching you how you can interpret economic data and utilize macro trades to work for you. Furthermore, for those without the mandate to make these trades, it highlights how monitoring them can provide signals for your own view on other asset classes.
