Quantamental Investing: Utilizing Market Intelligence & Big Data to Achieve a Market Edge;

The World of Investing has increasingly become a competitive field with evermore resources being allocated to chasing fewer market opportunities. The experimental Quantitative Easing policies of Global Central Banks combined with a Global Zero-Interest Rate Policy for almost a decade has driven investors to hunt for returns using innovative approaches. The strategic deployment of Big Data has enabled investors to analyze extremely large data sets in revealing patterns, trends, and associations, especially relating to human behavior and interactions in markets. An astute investment strategy should have a unique perspective on the current market environment and wholly understand why certain patterns are occurring or which catalysts may derail an otherwise resilient strategy. By utilizing a hybrid combination of systematic processing of Big Data and pattern recognition along with a fundamental overlay approach of understanding the global macro and political economy, one can harness a market edge disparate from experts in each domain individually. That is the very definition of a “market edge” – finding a unique way of viewing the world and deploying a strategy that cannot be arbitraged away or replicated by a competitor. That is why we believe in Quantamental Investing as a superior strategy to navigate the increasingly hyper-competitive investment landscape and build robust returns. This book will reveal just a few insights ranging from seasonal patterns and statistical anomalies to market behaviors and characteristics that can easily be revealed through the utilization of Big Data. These simple studies contained in this book are just a small snippet of the potential power of Big Data, helping to build a savvy investor’s market intelligence, navigate an increasingly competitive financial landscape and capitalize on investment opportunities through the Power of Quantamental Investing.
