The thing you’re missing: Would you rather have net profits of 20, -10, 15, -5, -10, 25, -5 year over year, or profits of 4, 4, 4, 5, 4, 5, 5?

- brudgers 6d agoIn what sense is “profits” not referring to money?
- brookst 6d agoDid you reply to the wrong comment? I said nothing of the sort. Your hung up on money, everyone is trying to explain that the exact same money is better when it is predictable versus erratic.
- brudgers 6d agothe exact same money Yes, it is about the money.
- mhh__ 5d agoYou may have liabilities or income that exist outside of financial markets e.g. if I have 500t of wheat due to be harvested I might want to hedge enough to guarantee I can pay my staff - ive locked in the price of wheat, I might make less money as a result but my risk is lower.
