Quant X Tribe (Next Level): post #3310 — TG.ME

🙏 Thank you, Quant X Tribe!

Here's what we covered in tonight's session:

📉 The "Index Effect" is dead. Alpha decay killed it, the market now front-runs S&P 500 additions, and added stocks are often already held by mid-cap ETFs.

⚖️ Pension fund rebalancing is a live opportunity. Rigid 60/40 mandates create forced, predictable trades, and funds won't change them even knowing the market watches.

🌪 The strategy thrives in volatility. It behaves like a natural hedge, stronger in bear markets, modest in bull markets.

🛠 Resources shared. A backtest notebook and an IBKR paper-trading script so you can validate it yourself.

📹 Missed it? The recording will be uploaded here soon.

❤️ Thank you guys for attending! We’ll see you again at the next session on 8th September~
