What I am reading: Feb 11, 2015

Recent articles that I found interesting and made me think.

S&P 500 Snapshot: Check out the ‘A Perspective on Drawdowns’ to see how shallow drawdowns have been overall since 2009.

This Is The Best Illustration Of History’s Bull And Bear Markets We’ve Seen Yet – A longer term look at the markets. Our current bull market does not look so great compared to others. I am sucker for pretty charts if you could not tell.

Missing What is Missing – A good TED talk about survivorship bias outside the trading world with plenty of application back to the trading world.

Mindfulness, meditation and investing – I thought that I would never do it but I started practicing mindfulness about 2-3 months ago and have been surprised by thoughts that jump into my head.

 

Good Quant Trading,
