Historical Summary
This publication documents an Argo Futures Group collaboration with NDX Capital Management, a commodity trading advisor promoted in the original material through its historical rankings, program results, and multiple managed-futures strategies.
The publication introduced prospective investors to NDX Capital Management's Shadrach, Abednego, and Methuselah programs and presented the advisor as a potential source of portfolio diversification during a period of heightened interest in professionally managed futures.
The exhibit reflects Argo's broader managed-futures model: identifying professional trading programs, presenting their historical records and methodologies, and helping qualified investors evaluate whether a particular advisor or strategy was suitable for their objectives and risk tolerance.
Historical Significance
The NDX collaboration illustrates how Argo Futures Group communicated the distinctions among professional commodity trading advisors and their individual programs.
Unlike the Steve Kapptie collaboration, which developed organically from an existing Argo client relationship, the NDX material documents Argo's role in evaluating and presenting an established outside CTA and its multiple trading programs.
