No strategy assures success or protects against loss. Market neutral strategy involves special risks, including significant losses, trade execution delays, forced liquidations of short or leveraged positions due to losses or failure to “match” long and short positions. Options are not suitable for all investors and certain option strategies may expose investors to significant potential losses such as losing entire amount paid for the option. There is no guarantee that a diversified portfolio will enhance overall returns or outperform a non-diversified portfolio. Diversification does not protect against market risk.
