I'd be surprised if other funds aren't using this sort of technique already and just not talking about it.

- joshu 15y agoI would be surprised. There's not a huge amount of trading based on text.
- gojomo 15y agoIs that because it has been tried and failed, or do you think there are exploitable opportunities in this area?

- joshu 15y agoIt's much harder to do and there's much less history. So there's a lot of effort and relatively little confidence. If you're rentech then you can probably do this but if you're a hedge fund that's JUST doing news/twitter/etc you are probably doomed. BTW, $25m fund is a TINY hedge fund. I've run stuff that big myself (within the context of a much larger platform.) Also if someone brings up the Hathaway thing I shall cry.
