You wouldn’t know it from looking at stock market indices, but this week has seen some MASSIVE moves beneath the surface - a “momentum crash” that is eerily reminiscent of the August 2007 quant quake. Here’s my FT take https://on.ft.com/2AaNqGI but it deserves a full thread. 1/n

That link has a very interesting article. I particularly liked this paragraph because...well, because those are the quants. My son tells me "you can't beat the quants" and I have to reply "which computer is getting its asss handed to itself today?"
On August 6 2007, the quantitative investing industry, whose computer scientists used trading algorithms to systematically mine markets for money, suddenly and mysteriously saw their models go haywire, racking up huge losses for many “quant” powerhouses from Goldman Sachs Asset Management to Renaissance Technologies.
"Mysteriously" - love that word.
"If you've heard this story before, don't stop me because I'd like to hear it again," Groucho Marx (on market history?).
“I've learned in options trading simple is best and the obvious is often the most elusive to recognize.”
"The god of trading rewards persistence, experience and discipline, and absolutely nothing else."
