The former generally made investment decisions based on earnings statements and, of course, company fundamentals. The latter were less concerned with the CEO\u2019s quarterly comments and more interested in what historical data could tell them about the price of a security going forward. Today, however, we are in a world in which long-understood definitions are no longer clear, and the lines defining investors, dealers, market makers, and investment analysis approaches are increasingly blurry.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>Case in point \u2013 some fundamental managers are now using machine learning to analyze earnings statements and examine market moves based on past company or macroeconomic news, an approach sometimes referred to as a quantitative overlay. Conversely, quantitative analysts now have access to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenwich.com\/equities\/putting-alternative-data-use-financial-markets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">alternative data sources<\/a>\u2014such as store traffic from mobile phones or social media sentiment\u2014that allows them to systematically make investment decisions on individual names. Furthermore, the majority of the world\u2019s leading asset managers have both fundamental and quantitative funds, providing their clients with access to the best of both worlds.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>So as the lines continue to blur, what\u2019s next? Enter quantimental investing.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>In a nutshell, quantimental investors are fundamental investors \u2013 those concerned with traditional success factors of the companies and assets in which they invest \u2013 that employ quantitative methods, tools and technologies to help make investment choices.\u00a0 Whether a technology firm\u2019s new gadget is going to sell or whether the components of a securitized product will perform still matters, but the process for determining how those events might play out and what they will do to asset prices is examined quantitatively.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>For example, fundamental managers are increasingly employing \u201cquantitative overlays\u201d to help inform their securities selection process. Even passively invested index-tracking funds will use quantitatively driven technology to rebalance portfolios, manage create\/redeems and determine which subset of a given index to hold while limiting basis risk. And let\u2019s not forget about robo-advisors\u2014a crystal clear use of quantitative modeling applied to passive investment vehicles.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>This new approach to fundamental investing is growing in large part due to huge advancements in financial technology \u2013 FinTech. The emergence of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenwich.com\/equities\/alternative-data-alpha\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">alternative data for investing<\/a>, such as satellite imagery and IoT (internet of things) exhaust, cheap access to storage and compute power via the cloud and sophisticated analytics to make sense out of what is often unstructured data have all brought technology once reserved for only the most sophisticated hedge funds to a wider audience.\u00a0 Inject a surge of innovation in\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenwich.com\/equities\/artificial-intelligence-coming-disruption-wall-street\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">artificial intelligence<\/a>, machine learning and data visualization, and institutional investors have entered a whole new world.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>The last decade has left many people believing that quantitative investing and trading is evil, and that the machines are ruining the market.\u00a0 But the truth is completely the opposite.\u00a0 Quantitative investors inject liquidity into the market, keep related asset prices in line and often act as the opposing view point when the majority of investors are all moving in the same direction.\u00a0 Each of these, along with the benefits quantitative techniques are bringing to fundamental portfolios, allow retail and institutional investors to get into and out of the market more easily and capture additional returns that would have otherwise remained hidden.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>Ultimately, quantitative tools of today and tomorrow present opportunities for nearly all investors \u2014not only for sophisticated hedge funds with teams of physicists and data scientists. The goal is not to eliminate humans from the process but to provide them with better and more actionable information than was possible with more traditional investment research tools. After all, markets are notoriously irrational, and investing in an irrational market is a team effort. It\u2019s not man versus machine, but man with machine.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n<div  class=\"bbg-row-container\">\n
