------------------------------------B. Agenda:
1) Guest Speaker: Arindam Kundu
"In the last decade, mathematical and computational engineers have devised
innovative strategies to generate consistent returns in the markets using a
combination of various academic methods employed in Statistics, Probability and
Computer Science. These strategies have low portfolio risk and work extremely well
even in financial meltdown scenarios.
Quantitative trading is a technical investment strategy in the financial markets
that relies on mathematical formulas and computations to recognize opportunities.
Employed by many advanced hedge funds and some mutual funds, quantitative
trading takes much of the human element out of investment decisions."
Student attendance at meetings is what's needed most for making the club vibrant
and full of ideas and activities.
