This is the last straw for me. It's time to shut down academia until we can figure out once and for all what these monsters are teaching our children.

A large part of what we do focuses on trading flow within the U.S. equity derivatives market, with a strong bias towards being long volatility and making money when markets become volatile. Our approach is built around understanding how different types of flow interact,

Remember that HyperLiquid whale that shorted the market and made $190m because of Trump tweets a few hours later? A polymarket account linked to it called "bigwinner01" placed bets that CZ would be pardoned. Looking like obvious insider knowledge. 👀

To all the haters commenting on this, you guys just don't get quant finance. It used to be that when you dug the soil for gold, you would be able to unearth entire gold bars. The game has changed. Now when you dig the soil for gold, you get only gold dust particles. Quant
