Money managers are dealing with an enormous amount of uncertainty about the future. Many traditional metrics aren't nearly as reliable (or outright fail) within this environment and plenty of questions can be raised whenever conclusions are being formed based on these same metrics. Starting with ZIRP or, more dramatically, negative interest rates, much more caution (or hedging, if you wish) is being used.

As more "hedges" are seen as "viable investment or trading vehicles", larger problems surface. Instead of more patience, we seem to be observing more "restlessness". Chasing yield or ever grater returns on investment will likely cause poor investment decisions.

Steady, 12% gains per year (basically) double your investment money in 5 years. Too often, people lose sight of simple issues like this.
