Turnaround Tuesdays on Steroids

Quant Trading Rules • 79 implied HN points • 26 May 24
💰 Finance Performance analysis
  1. The Turnaround Tuesdays trading strategy is based on stocks rebounding on Tuesdays after a down Monday, with simple entry and exit rules tested over 31 years.
  2. Expanding the strategy to include Tuesdays and Wednesdays improved results, increasing annual returns and win rates while maintaining high simplicity.
  3. Utilizing leverage by applying the strategy to a leveraged ETF like TQQQ can significantly boost annual returns, although it may lead to more frequent and deeper drawdowns.

Better Descriptive Statistics for Low-Latency Profiling

Low Latency Trading Insights • 137 implied HN points • 06 Feb 24
🕹 Technology Statistics Data Collection Performance analysis Algorithm
  1. Better descriptive statistics are needed for low-latency profiling to accurately capture rare events and spikes.
  2. Descriptive statistics like mean, median, skewness, and kurtosis may be misleading in non-normally distributed data.
  3. Self-adjusting histograms with log-based ranges can provide more accurate data representation and efficient storage.

ChatGPT can predict analyst forecast changes

Klement on Investing • 4 implied HN points • 19 Nov 24
💰 Finance Investing AI Applications Market Trends Performance analysis
  1. ChatGPT can analyze earnings calls and predict how analysts will change their forecasts. This means it can assess important company factors like growth and risk.
  2. The Analyst Insight Score (AIS) created from ChatGPT's analysis is better at predicting analyst actions and stock prices than traditional methods. It's about two to four times more effective.
  3. There's concern that as AI like ChatGPT improves in its analysis, it might replace human jobs in finance. This includes roles like equity analysts and fund managers.
