While some investors are concerned that exchange-traded funds with options overlays could limit returns, experts see a key benefit at play. I think most notably within the active ETF space are portfolios that have options-embedded strategies within the portfolios," she said in the same interview. "Thinking about those 75% of ETFs that were launched last year, 70% were either active equity or equity derivative strategies." Morgan Stanley's Rochte sees more investors moving money out of popular fixed-income products and into risk assets as a result. "We're seeing some managers that will license the Nasdaq-100 index providing that tech exposure with options strategies on top."

The Evergrande collapse is not China's 'Lehman moment,' but it does complicate an economic recovery, CFR expert said. "Unlike Lehman, Evergrande's insolvency is due to its excessive borrowing and aggressive use of leverage, not over-securitization." This has spurred on the question: is the Evergrande collapse China's "Lehman moment?" One famed hedge-fund boss said China's property crash was like the Great Financial Crisis from 2008 "on steroids." "Unlike Lehman, Evergrande's insolvency is due to its excessive borrowing and aggressive use of leverage, not over-securitization."

Embattled lender New York Community Bank disclosed a litany of financial metrics in the past 24 hours in a bid to soothe skittish investors. But one of the most crucial resources for any bank appears to be in short supply for NYCB lately: confidence. The moves spurred a 6% jump Wednesday in NYCB shares, a small dent in the stock's more than 50% decline since the bank reported fourth-quarter results last week. The sudden decline in NYCB, previously deemed one of last year's winners after acquiring the assets of Signature Bank, reignited fears over the state of medium-sized American banks.

AdvertisementThe increases hit the value of their fixed-income and commercial real estate portfolios. In particular, commercial real estate is under pressure from ongoing remote working, tighter credit availability as lenders have pulled back, and higher debt costs, all of which have weighed on asset values. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen told lawmakers this week she expects the commercial real estate pressures to "put a loss of stress" on property owners, although she expected it to be manageable, Bloomberg reported.

That dozens of funds — the firm currently has 28 different partner funds that feed data into the strategy plus a waitlist of five other managers — would share their holdings is novel. The average hedge fund was up 7.5%, according to Hedge Fund Research. The managers who have partnered with CenterBook, Stemerman said, have a long time horizon — think months instead of days — on their trades, so the edge isn't lost if CenterBook also makes the same trade in its book. CenterBook, if assets grow as expected, aims to bring on another 10 partner funds this year, the source close to management tells Business Insider. While the manager has only 18 full-time employees, its partner funds have more than 100 investment analysts working at them.

If the stock's price doesn't fall below it or forms a support line, it signals that the price could likely retrace and increase.
