TRYING TO CATCH A FALLING KNIFE – Read the full article here!
For many investors, managing currencies is the imponderable factor. They can go up and down, often erratically move against each other and there is little apparently that you can do about it! Or if you do try and do something about it, the actions can be quite expensive and not always succeed.
The phrase is often used (and often by me as a limp excuse) about trying to forecast currency movements as being more like trying to catch a falling knife. For many private investors trying to have your own currency hedging policy can be pretty pricey and certainly time consuming. Even for most advisers, the opportunity of running a currency hedging and a management programme is often beyond the capability of their systems and platform – as well as their own personal experience.
