Содержание слайда: Role of data analysis in modern finance
Investment shops are fighting over mathematicians and engineers
FinTech
“Half of the books about finance are written by authors who have not practiced what they teach. They contain extremely elegant mathematics that describe a world that does not exist. The other half of the books are written by authors who offer explanations absent of any academic theory. They misuse mathematical tools to describe actual observations”. (Lopez de Prado)
Data analysis fills the gap between theory and practice
№6 слайд
Содержание слайда: Big data in action
Parking lots traffic
In 2015 certain hedge funds utilizing satellite data sources noted rising traffic in the parking lots of J.C. Penny stores
This was a clear sign of increasing sales
JCP’s stock jumped more than 10% when public reports of JCP’s increased store traffic came to light in August.
Crop estimates
In 2015 some investment firms examined infrared satellite images taken of over one million corn fields
They correctly predicted that U.S. corn production was 2.8% smaller than prevailing government estimates
Successful market guessing requires data analysis skills!

Содержание слайда: Decision-making process
What is rational decision-making?

What is the winning strategy?

Содержание слайда: Decision-making process
If everybody is rational, then you should pick 0!
Financial markets are much harder to predict
Gather information: stocks prices, what stocks move together, what is the probability of crash, etc.
Decision-making (economics): optimization of the objective function and finding stocks that fulfill your goal
Decision-making (neuroscience): social background, cultural biases, amount of sleep, stress, how good was your cappuccino today – everything is important
