CEO and Founder, and Thought-Leadership in AI-Powered Alternative Sentiment Data and Global Macro Strategy at RunningAlpha.com Investments Inc. ( TheDailyDisruptor Crypto Podcasts at: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Y93tzh3ZUWouZ54n5aAJR )

Toronto, Canada

Running Alpha and it's founder, Efrem Hoffman, is rethinking the way we can collaborate with the underlying physics of nature to better exploit uncertainty for competitive advantage in world capital markets.

The founder has introduced a new financial curve beyond traditional alpha and beta; he calls it Activist Alpha;

Activist Alpha leverages principles of fractional calculus, quantum computing phenomena, and self-organizing complex systems for extracting and unlocking new insights about market asymmetries;

specifically how knowledge of the micro-structure of human and machine perception biases can be used for profiting from:

(i) sharp changes in the market landscape that could trip up quant systems on the wrong side of the trade;

(ii) the ways the best and worst investors ( smart and dumb money ) will be magnifying emotional biases
in their interactions during emergency situations;

(iii) timing the allocation of capital resources ( Monetary, IP, Human, M&A, Buybacks, IPOs, Debt ) and the release of critical corporate information; and

(iv) time-relevant smart-cuts for shape-shifting the market's forward sentiment jet-stream perceptions' and amplifying the half-life of sentiment-moving events,

in favor of high-impact performance outcomes that work for you and all your stakeholders involved in the resource allocation process.

Running Alpha is not simply focusing on Finding Alpha based on the prevailing market structure, but is opening new ground for predicting super-anomalies that are revealing otherwise invisible opportunities.

Seeing the future is one thing; being able to do something about it is quite another.

Dynamically Generating and Effecting Change to make past decisions come alive again,
through actively bringing the sum-non-linear observer interactions into the data analytics equation is the RunningAlpha Way!

Are you confident in the current market? Cryptocurrency and Equity market intelligence is nothing new in today’s arena.

Efrem Hoffman, founder and CEO of RunningAlpha.com cofounded TheDailyDisruptor.com to provide insightful data intelligence on the most disruptive moments that's not only capturing live real-money, actionable, high-conviction opportunities, and best ideas flying below the radar --

-- Inside the "World's Thinnest Uncertainty Windows ( where we can be most confident of one-directional market action )," but is targeting the longest and most sustainable runways for growth at a discounted price; serving as your New Timepiece that Doesn’t Just Keep You On Time, but Gets You To Your Destination Faster in 2021.

See how deep the rabbit hole can go as Efrem Hoffman takes you on a mind-bending journey that uncovers the newest mega trends and super outlier events in both the world of Vanilla and Exotic Digital Currencies, DeFi Tokens, and Alt-Coins, as well as Critical Calendar dates when Alt-Coin Seasons and North American and International Equity Market Melt-ups will ignite.

These insights are powered by The World’s First Sentiment and Perception-Aware Investment Insights that are Inspired by the Way Nature Encodes Information on a Quantum Scale: Cutting Through the Fog of Uncertainty Surrounding How the Market Will be Interpreting News Events.

Never be Kept in the Dark Again About When Bad News will be Climbing a “Wall of Worry” and When Good News will be “Descending a Slope of Hope.”

Precision Activism: How Running Alpha is Changing the Face of Financial Decision-Making Outcomes for Delivering Super-Human Investor Performance
Efrem Hoffman
March 17, 2019
Instead of Predicting Capital Market events from the Outside, which are in theory and practice virtually unknowable, Running Alpha leverages market event and investor uncertainty with never-before-accessible insights into the forward-looking market interaction effects of divergent and convergent investor sentiment and perception biases across all time-lines simultaneously, for monetizing future scenarios; thereby:

liberating investors and traders from:

feeling anxiety about not having a stake in the future -- by shifting their attention from inputting and acting on their own opinions to looking down from 30000 feet on the whole market player decision-making puzzle board; and

the complexities of consistently finding extraordinary opportunities at the intersection of value and exponential growth, without compromising the potential for comfort-adjusted absolute returns in all market environments and across all economic cycles.

Extracting Profits From Crypto-Currencies | Running Alpha Opens New Ground in Data-Driven Decision-Making: Introducing AI-Powered Quantum Machines
Running Alpha, Efrem Hoffman, CE and Founder
December 12, 2018
Running Alpha is the first AI-Powered Algorithmic Machine Intelligence Framework that was designed from the ground up to:

organically simulate how nature uses quantum computing principles for circumventing the constraints of processing exponentially big chunks of classical data ( visible information ) in real-time.

In-house proprietary technology is used for transforming data into an encrypted superposition of quantum entangled states — each representing the observed event from a unique viewing perspective; independent of human or machine observation.

Adapted from the founder’s U.S. patents on Autonomous Hierarchical Assemblies of Artificial Neural Networks — for giving early warning of tornado outbreaks from 3D atmospheric radar imagery — the parameters underlying the conversion process were discovered.

Up until now, conventional machine intelligence can only learn by example in sequence; and because they require a very large number of past examples to recognize variation and identify change, many of today’s newer data sets of finite length impose a roadblock to innovating data-driven applications.

Even in those situations where the data history is not limited, legacy classical algorithms are unable to leverage the capabilities offered by Running Alpha’s massively-parallel one-shot training process (self-generated), which takes into account gauge symmetries — the unchanging geometric relationships among the viewing perspectives (quantum states) that lead to emergent structure in the real-world; and as such, traditional AI platforms are ill-designed for detecting anomalies in data we have never seen before.

Momentum Crash Unleashed -- Capital Rotations Found in the Dark with Bottom-Down Intelligence and Sentiment-Aware Momentum Perception Maps
Hoffman Financial Storm Chaser on: LinkedIn Newsletter
March 16, 2023
Momentum-based strategies for capturing the forward sentiment bias across asset classes, are especially useful in high inflation environments, like we are experiencing today.

The underlying logic is that momentum in consumer prices leads to persistent reactions in both central bank and private investment decision-making, which in turn drives asset price action.

A combination of unexpected and sharp spikes in inflation and/or inflation expectations, cloud cover surrounding the duration and extent of supply-chain disruptions, and export restrictions and protectionist trade policies, give rise to situations,

where emotional reactions to these highly uncertain outcomes can get elevated to such untenable levels for economic capital allocators to reliably manage business expectations and purchasing decisions. Such situations lead to exaggerated momentum movements in asset values.

When asset prices get pushed too far in one direction too quickly and/or over a prolonged period, they can quickly start reverting from an extreme, when investors in the prevailing trend begin unwinding their concentrated bets; thereby sending asset prices moving at an even faster rate in the opposite direction.

Our research intelligence framework and Momentum Perception Map technology, is designed precisely for this task, namely,
telling us when these extreme reversion events are knowable, and in those special time windows when we can see them before they happen,

we alert our premium subscribers of these critical transition price points, which have high potential for triggering the onset of:

Momentum Crashes – when the relative performance of the stronger and weaker assets flip direction, momentum strategies that were working before the transition begin failing ( which is distinct from the notion of a stock market crash, which, Running Alpha also has a remarkable record of seeing before they happen ).
