Several advancements and challenges have occurred in the world of
quant investing. A notable change in leadership took place at Two Sigma's techniques squad known for quant research, with a major player departing for Cubist. The exchange between quant and fundamental investing is increasingly becoming important in trading insights, as indicated by Matt Jones from Fidelity. Meanwhile,
Quant Mutual Fund significantly expanded its portfolio by investing Rs 2,000 crore in
Adani Enterprises QIP, and even emerged as the largest investor in the process. Multiple experts, including SA quant grades, SA analysts, and Wall street ratings, seem to agree on a similar set of stocks. Furthermore, Quant Mutual Fund has reportedly exited IRCON in Q2, and FII also cut stake, indicating a shift in quant investing strategies. On another note, Bloomberg launched a fully customizable Intraday Quant Pricing Solution offering more advanced tools for investment research. From a more negative perspective, the sector saw some challenges with three companies and 15 individuals having been charged with cryptocurrency fraud. Moreover, China's short-sale curbs dealt a fresh blow to Quant Hedge funds. In the healthcare sector, Universal Health services, DaVita, and HCA Healthcare emerged as top Quant picks prior to Q3 earnings.
