Kathryn Kaminski, AlphaSimplex - When You’re A Systematic Investor, Your Process Makes The Decision | #310

In episode 310, we welcome our guest, Kathryn Kaminski, Chief Research Strategist at AlphaSimplex, where she’s also the co-portfolio manager for the firm’s Managed Futures Strategy.  In today’s episode, we’re talking all about trend following and managed futures. You may have heard the phrase “crisis alpha” before, and Kathryn is the person who coined that phrase. We start with hearing what it was like for her to study at MIT under the legendary Andrew Lo. Then she explains why trend following works during a crisis and uses last year as an example.  As we wind down, Kathryn explains some misconceptions about trend following and talks about why it’s so important to have a process driven investment approach.  All this and more in episode 310 with AlphaSimplex’s Kathryn Kaminski. --- This episode is sponsored by Masterworks.
