Global Macro / G5 Equity & Bond Indexes, Currencies, Commodities
The strategy pursues tactical opportunities in G5 equity and sovereign bond indexes, as well as currencies and commodities.
* We focus on turning points in market narratives, as well as trades around important macro events
* The strategy is directional and is concentrated on 1-2 themes at a time
* Investment decisions factor in economic fundamentals, price action, investor sentiment and positioning, as well as potential price catalysts
Risk management was tightened in Q3 2021 to reflect expectations of growing economic uncertainty and market volatility. As part of that, trading became more catalyst-oriented with smaller trade sizes. As a result, portfolio volatility decreased substantially.

Net portfolio returns (inclusive of a monthly pro-forma performance fee of 20%) were compiled by Compliance Supervisors International Inc, (CSI) from monthly statements obtained independently by CSI from Interactive Brokers. The monthly returns rep resent those of one client that executed power of attorney with Anton Barinov, with NAV of $ 8.4 million as of November 30, 2024. In total, as of November 30, 2024, Anton Barinov maintained discretionary authority over 15 client accounts all of which are qualified as accounts of family and friends, as well as his personal account, with aggregate NAV of ~$19.1 million as of November 2024. Since March 2020, Anton Barinov has been operating pursuant to Section 4m (1) of the Commodity Exchange Act whereby an exemption from CTA registration exists for a person that has not furnished commodity trading advice to more than 15 persons and does not hold himself out generally to the public as a CTA. It is expected that at least some of those accounts will become part of Ahead Capital Management LLC trading program over the next several months.
