FEDERATED GOVERNMENT Suggested Diversification Pairs
Pair trading with FEDERATED GOVERNMENT can help investors hedge some company-specific exposure by balancing a long view with an offsetting position. The key question is whether the second leg adds real hedge value instead of just creating a more complex version of the same risk.
The effect of pair diversification on risk is to reduce it, but we should note this doesn't apply to all risk types. When we trade pairs against FEDERATED GOVERNMENT as a counterpart, there is always some inherent risk that will never be diversified away no matter what. This volatility limits the effect of tactical diversification using pair trading. FEDERATED GOVERNMENT's systematic risk is the inherent uncertainty of the entire market, and therefore cannot be mitigated even by pair-trading it against the equity that is not highly correlated to it. On the other hand, FEDERATED GOVERNMENT's unsystematic risk describes the types of risk that we can protect against, at least to some degree, by selecting a matching pair that is not perfectly correlated to Federated Government Income.
