Wall Street Icon: “You must get on the right side of this thing” (Ad)

I created one of the first quantitative analysis-based stock picking systems long before "quants" became a thing on Wall Street… leading Forbes to call me "King of the Quants." I'm writing to you today because my system has recently uncovered a market phenomenon I haven't seen in 30 years.

This market shakeup is going to be much more intense.
