We believe the rapid rise of quantitative investing has created compelling opportunities in the market. By focusing on crunching historical data series, these quant strategies are ill-modeled future economic paradigms, such as rising interest rates. Our experience has affirmed that future market developments do not exactly replicate the past. Our philosophy aims to construct a portfolio that can tolerate the volatility of unexpected developments. Moreover, as quant funds focus on rapid short-term trades, we believe smaller companies with more limited trading float or that are not included in ETFs have been overlooked, leading to investor inattention and under-valued opportunities.
