oh oh, dilemma:

when the UN told the world, that Syria was using chemicals, certain countries fell for the narrative

Now the UN comes with this:

Leaked UN Report: Saudi Coalition Responsible For Mass Child Deaths In Yemen


Will above mentioned certain countries now deny the accusations made against them?

Inquiring minds want to know.....

"We Need More Suckers At The Table" - Quant Funds Stumble As Dumb-Money Disappears

I tend to say:

go, suck yourselves ROFL

snipset:




With all the geniuses in quant, high-powered computers, and enormous data, where are the "suckers" who are providing the juice for all of these absolute return quantitative strategies?

Simply put, the 'edge providers' have moved aggressively into passive index funds and broader market ETFs.

As such, we have a condition amongst the traditional quantitative strategies whereby we have robots trading against robots. Without a steady source of 'edge providers', these 'edge demanders' are just trading money back and forth with each other.

We believe increased quantitative trading coupled with passive indexation by retail, and, low levels of realized and implied volatility may be creating a feedback loop that has caused unusual price movements in a variety of securities that have challenged trading oriented strategies.




...the shift toward passive indexation by those investors who have historically been the 'edge providers' has no end in sight. While one might argue that fundamentals always win out in the end (and we agree), we need to make money over a much shorter horizon for our investors and cannot sit idle in a world where hedge funds are expected to produce regular returns and stay ahead of the curve even if fundamentals are irrational. Over my nearly 30 year Wall St. career, I am a firm believer in the adage that "the markets can stay irrational longer than we can stay solvent".




In order to exploit inefficiency, giant quant firms "need to be dwarfed by large, dumb money," Berger concluded by phone to Bloomberg.

"They’re waiting for the sucker to come to the table, but the suckers are fewer and far between."

I am digging deep into sentiment analysis. I am surprised how many companies are already there in the big data business looking out for sentiment data in regards to financials, and how many companies, funds, banks etc. already using this data.

try the following google search

Sentiment is really important

Obviously it can be affected by news events,
eg on Friday the UJ was coming of following sentiment. Then the Whitehouse announced that Bannon is being sacked and immediately ralllied
