The Role of News Analytics in Quantitative Modeling
from Boston Security Analysts Society 
This event has passed.
Thursday, December 18, 2008, 12:15pm - 2:00pm



Speaker:
Armando Gonzalez, Co-Founder, President and CEO
RavenPack

Returns during periods of market volatility cannot be explained by fundamentals alone. Factoring news, an inherently qualitative source of information, into market models is becoming a standard in quantitative finance. However, this requires fast and accurate conversion of the written word into reliable and consistent numerical data streams. Mr. Gonzalez will discuss the evolution of automated news analysis in quantitative modeling. He will also share insights on the various building blocks required to build successful trading strategies from news.

Prior to RavenPack, Mr. Gonzalez served as Managing Director of a private business consulting firm out of North America.
