FYI: The S&P 500 gained 13% in the first eleven months of 2014, and the bull market in stocks has made some investors entirely forget about the financial crisis and subsequent stock-market crash just six years ago. But for many, the pain of ’08 remains a vibrant memory, and that’s one reason for the explosive growth of liquid alternatives, even as alternative investments have underperformed – as expected – during the S&P 500’s historic rise.
