Cognitive finance outthinks volatility.
A fin tech start-up, Alpha Modus, is already changing the way investment managers manage funds with cognitive technology. By working with Watson, they’re able to build investment tools that can understand and analyse not just organised data, like stock tickers, but also invisible, unstructured data like tweets, news articles and CEO webcasts—improving their predictive accuracy using imbalances by over 500%.
Alpha Modus’s work to save investors from a price-gouging industry is just beginning. On November 9th they will host AlphaHack, a hackathon in New York City in conjunction with IBM Bluemix, where developers will take their own crack at developing innovative investment applications. With this combination of talent and tools, traditional investment models are in for a shake-up. True to its name, Alpha Modus is delivering alpha where it belongs, in the hands of investors.
