      Using historical data and statistics helps understand the risk and the market's sentiment regarding a stock during certain times. The only way to look forward is considering the company's strategy and truly understanding its currently available resources. I work on a hedging team which is basically portfolio management and I would never use any of the hardcore math I've learned to select a single stock.

    • @soccerplayer2277
      @soccerplayer2277 4 ปีที่แล้ว +46

      @@kylelarson5074 I was and I am fundamentally disagreeing with him. It is not a forecast, these statistics are estimators and are just being assumed to carry forward into the future. Rho is not a bad estimator for some purposes but implied volatility proves much better than SD of historical prices as it is usually based on the market's forecasts of the stock. Volatility during these past 2 years has been through the roof, partially due to trade conflicts and the expanding global economy. Would I use these historical volatility estimates to develop a portfolio for the next 2 years, where trade agreements are likely settled and the global economy possibly begins contracting? No. What I would do is forecast stocks individually, select all my assets and then determine the optimal weightings of the assets to produce the largest sharpe ratio of the portfolio.

    I work in a front office investment control desk for one of Europe's largest asset managers. Found this very interesting, normally what you find is a degree of variance from the benchmark within equities, even then internal house rules will dictate only a minimal degree of variance. You'll find a lot of portfolios with have buckets for different asset classes (depending on the mandate), in particular, money market to sweep up excess cash to put the money to work whilst the PM picks securities. This presentation is really covering MAI funds. Great video and fantastic lecturer.

      @@SebastianRodriguez-hk2jiI’d say this would be a hard “nope” for me as a professional trader for one obvious reason: it is a fact that on a daily basis, the relationship between the S&P closing up or down for the day is 50/50… so 50% of the time the market closes up, and 50% of the time it closes down… even in a modest bullish trend… given this knowledge, yoloing your net worth on SPY calls is NOT a good idea because the overwhelming odds are that you very well may be the one sad bastard who bought/sold them when the SPY decides for whatever reason that it wants to make a little pullback from which it will then take 2 months to recover from. Happens all the time… often enough for me to make a great living lol (I trade ES futures).
      Writing this on November 23rd, 2023, after the S&P posted one of the craziest rallies ever recorded. Straight line up, no downwards action - 14 green days with only 3 tiny little wicky red days… after a month when people thought Black Monday was going to repeat itself… now I’m sure more than a few people yolod the SPY puts that week before we began this rally and they most likely lost everything they had in their account, and some likely lost even more than they had… so… that’s my 2 cents on this strategy. Keep the yoloing strictly for Wall St Bets degeneracy.

    Jake is wrong in a few regards:
    1) Cash has a zero to negative return based how much money the reserve bank prints each year or the CPI. Historically cash has devalued about 7% a year based on M2, or conservatively, at least the CPI. Cash, by definition cannot have a positive return.
    2) A lotteries expected return is based on the current jackpot sometime jackpots get high enough that they become value for money bets - so the return and standard deviation would be higher than 1 (100%).
    3) Analysis has shown that only the best VCs (top 25%) do better than ETFs, and that most VCs actually perform worse than the stock market. ETFs as a whole should perform almost exactly the same as stocks, though sectors may under/over perform the general market.
    4) The return on real estate has historically been lower than stocks.

Kids cant learn shit in schools in america pre college is cause teachers have a quota they have to meet and they pre write things on the board and rush through slides and the kids dont have a chance to understand anything thoroughly its just a memory game.
    This guy gets it about taking his time and writing through everything. I like him.

    For people wondering why variance and mean of coin flip is one. Let us assume a fair coin. P(Heads) = P(Tails) = 0.5. Assume you get +1 if you land heads and -1 if you land tails.
    Mean = 1*0.5 + (-1) * 0.5 =0. Variance = E(X- mean)^2. Variance = E(X^2) as mean is zero. E(X^2) = 1*1*0.5 + (-1)(-1)*0.5 = 1. Hence standard deviation is also 1.

      It's a real conundrum. Lectures you find online from MIT, Stanford, Harvord, etc, are so much better than the usual lecture you'd find at your own college. It's hard to even show up and listen. And in the end, why should you? Really goes to show that large components of the university system are obsolete.
