Uso de CFDs para Cobertura - ¿Opiniones?

Traducido automáticamente del original · Leer el original (English)

Estoy explorando la utilidad de los CFDs para cubrir una cartera de acciones físicas existente. Específicamente, vender en corto un CFD de índice como $NDX para mitigar el riesgo de mercado más amplio. ¿Alguien aquí usa activamente CFDs para este propósito? ¿Algún inconveniente a tener en cuenta?

I've used CFDs for hedging specific sector risks within my long-only portfolio. It can be quite effective for short-term adjustments without liquidating positions.

I'd be wary of the counterparty risk with CFDs, especially with smaller brokers. Something to consider if you're holding a substantial hedge.

I prefer options for hedging broader market risk. Less leverage involved and defined risk profiles. Have you looked into protective puts on an index ETF instead?

Yeah, I use NDX CFDs sometimes for tactical hedges against my tech heavy portfolio. Works well for quick downside protection, just keep an eye on margin calls.

Interesting idea, but aren't the financing costs on CFDs quite a drag, especially if you hold them for an extended period for a hedge?
