Hudson Trading Group

Hudson Trading Group provides portfolio management services primarily to pooled investment vehicles and other institutional-type clients, preparing investment policy statements and, where authorized, exercising discretionary trading authority on client accounts. The firm reported zero discretionary and non‑discretionary assets under management as of April 2022.

Its investment process combines charting, fundamental, quantitative and technical analysis and principally recommends equities while also using ETFs (including precious-metal ETFs), fixed income, real estate funds, private placements and IPO allocations. Trading approaches include long- and short-term strategies and higher‑risk techniques such as short sales, margin and options, with client risk tolerances documented in each investment policy statement.

Distinctive features include the firm’s very small scale and single management person, its stated practice of not engaging third‑party sub‑advisers, and its willingness to accept performance‑based compensation under a high‑water‑mark arrangement. The firm recommends Interactive Brokers for execution, may receive research or other soft‑dollar benefits from brokers, and describes formal policies to allocate limited opportunities (for example IPOs) fairly among clients.
