In memoriam Andrew Rudd (February 23, 1950 - April 2, 2024). Andrew passed three months ago. I apologize for bothering anyone who already knew but I wanted to post this for those in the industry who like myself did not know until just now. I wish to thank the London Quant Group (LQG) for bringing this fact to my attention. Here is a notice of his passing from his alma mater, University of Sussex. https://lnkd.in/egJqeFgZ Key excerpts from the LQG notice: Andrew was a successful academic before becoming the visionary financial industry leader whose influence endures in risk models, systems and users.?He was an excellent public speaker, inspiring many, both with what he said and how he said it. With his wife, Jinny, Andrew supported and funded chairs at several universities.?They also generously funded research centres at UMass Amherst and at Sussex University (now moved to Cambridge University) to research best practices for adoption and those in care systems. Andrew last spoke at the LQG Autumn Seminar in 2011 on two topics:?Memorably he discussed his risk model to determine the likely success of a film, a talk which highlighted just how risky the film business is, He also spoke formally on “Deterministic vs. Adaptive Strategies - Who Wins? Who Loses? And Why?” Andrew had a great sense of fun and was highly competitive – qualities much in evidence during the LQG punting challenge when he used a super soaker water cannon to considerable effect. The links below offer additional insights: https://lnkd.in/egJqeFgZ? https://lnkd.in/eE7Zatrm https://act.alz.org/site I enjoyed Andrew's company very much and arranged for him to speak at QWAFAFEW New York in three occasions and add three other QWAFAFEW chapters as well. He was a true giant in Quantitative Risk Attribution and Advisor Software. I shall miss him.

Hetty Green: Wall Street’s Long-Forgotten Queen **************************************** "People who are honest nowadays are accused of being mad." HETTY GREEN **************************************** Her enemies referred to her as the witch of Wall Street, which was a moniker that could not be further from the truth. The reality was she was among the most talented investors in US history (if not the most talented). She was also modest, honest, and charitable, which was so foreign to stock operators in the lawless markets of the Gilded Age that it was mistaken for witchcraft. For those who missed the webinar, please feel free to join in. In the second half, Michelle Seitz explains how she resurrected many of Hetty Green’s virtues to drive her rapid ascent in the investment profession.

Please join us in congratulating our Saver of the Year for the 2023-2024 school year, Osmar Chantre-Rivera! Osmar takes part in our student savings program at Cleveland Academy of Leadership, where students are able to make weekly deposits in real savings accounts and practice good savings habits. The Saver of the Year is determined by the consistency of deposits, not the amount, teaching students that consistency is key to building healthy money habits. #financialeducation #SpartanburgSC #CreditUnion #financialliteracy @CarolinasCreditUnionLeague @SpartanburgSchoolDistrict7

#politics #unitedstates #NobelPrize The newspaper Financial Times says Donald Trump raises eyebrows with off-colour remarks about Arnold Palmer’s anatomy (X, https://lnkd.in/edxtbdjE). Arnold Palmer’s anatomy - My variation on Teddy Roosevelt: Speak softly but carry a big (golf) stick. The stick, the phallic symbol, the Washington monument, from Egypt to Rome, across from The White House, is NOT United States Department of Defense across the Potomac. The big Bertha is my mind. It is the most erotic, man or woman or transgender. TAMIRISA, One World, Some thoughts, https://lnkd.in/g7NHRc7J.

I have a monopoly on it which even Lina Khan at Federal Trade Commission and U.S. Department of Justice cannot break by antitrust. It is getting a second president elected after people took offense to it since 2003. The first was @BarackObama, and he screwed it up. The second could be @realDonaldTrump, again. Between the two of them I do not want to be held responsible for America’s and the world’s destruction because of it. Y’all screwed things up. Understand? I will help you fix it.

?? Exciting News! ??
