28Dr. John Lintner of Harvard University, wrote
that "the combined portfolios of stocks (or
stocks and bonds) after including judicious
investments ... in leveraged managed futures
accounts show substantially less risk at every
possible level of expected return than portfolios
of stocks (or stocks and bonds) alone."
