Frequently Asked Questions

We are a community-based investment fund and strategy endeavoring to aid underrepresented groups of people that have never been able to access the privilege of investing in the stock market.  

If you have ever felt like, or made the statement: "I don't have 'extra money' to invest in the market" -- Then you are who we want to serve.  We offer access to a low-entry Hedge Fund that uses the power of collective buying power to leverage the strength in numbers as a pooled entry into the market.

A hedge fund is an unregulated alternative investment vehicle that uses a wide selection of strategies and financial instruments (unavailable to regulated pooled funds) to achieve strong returns independent of market performance.

A pooled fund collects money from many individual investors with the intention of using the accumulated capital for investment purposes. Investors share the profits, should any be earned.

• Regulated pooled funds, like mutual funds, are open to retail investors – but, owing to this, they must adhere to the rules and restrictions laid out by the relevant regulatory authority
• Unregulated pooled funds, like hedge funds, aren’t constrained to the same degree, and are not available to retail investors. This relative freedom from regulation allows hedge fund managers to engage in high risk tactics like taking short positions and trading with leveraged derivatives

A major advantage of hedge funds comes from their ability to mitigate market risk by diversifying an investment portfolio. Market risk is the risk that the stock market as a whole will experience a downturn. If this happens to a portfolio containing many stocks, the value of the portfolio will likely decrease in step with the market.

As alternative investment vehicles that can look to opportunities outside of the stock market, and by using derivatives to take short positions in the market, hedge funds stand to earn positive results even when the market is falling.

The minimum investment needed to join our Hedge Fund is typically $5,000 with an aggressive quarterly return.

We have many options to join a smaller group as a way to collectively meet the $5,000 minimum investment.  You also have the ability to create your own group of friends and family members to get to the $5,000 minimum.

We currently offer an open enrollment window that begins accepting applications June 1st and closes June 30th. If you are seriously considering making an application during the next open enrollment, start talking to the folks you would invite to be part of your investment group now.
