Publication attachments

Periods of market stress and sharp price moves often create opportunities that traditional approaches may overlook. Quantitative Edge combines a strategic investment framework with a tactical signal engine designed to identify where sentiment and positioning may have moved too far, too fast... 

By blending long-term valuation analysis with shorter-term market dynamics, the model aims to uncover potential rebound opportunities across sectors, regions and global equity indices through a disciplined, data-driven process.

Model 1: Strategic Equity Allocation

  • Long-term relative value framework across sectors and regions;

  • Focused on valuation mean reversion and cross-market dislocations;

  • Designed to support strategic equity positioning and relative allocation decisions.

Model 2: Tactical Alpha Engine

  • Long-only tactical trade ideas with an average investment horizon of approximately one month;

  • Identifies potential rebound opportunities through price underperformance and technical oversold signals;

  • Designed as a tactical overlay to complement broader portfolio positioning;

  • Across more than 15 years of historical testing, the model has delivered consistently strong hit rates and attractive risk-adjusted returns across US, European and Asian markets. 

By combining strategic allocation with tactical signal generation, Quantitative Edge provides a transparent and disciplined approach for identifying potential market opportunities across changing market environments.
