Alpha, higher-than-expected returns generated by an investment strategy, is the holy grail of the investment world. Achieve alpha, and you've beaten the market on a risk-adjusted basis. Quantitative Strategies for Achieving Alpha was borne from equity analyst Richard Tortoriello's efforts to create a series of quantitative stock selection models for his company, Standard & Poor's, and produce a "road map" of the market from a quantitative point of view.

With this practical guide, you will gain an effective instrument that can be used to improve your investment process, whether you invest qualitatively, quantitatively, or seek to combine both. Each alpha-achieving strategy has been extensively back-tested using Standard & Poor's Compustat Point in Time database and has proven to deliver alpha over the long term. Quantitative Strategies for Achieving Alpha presents a wide variety of individual and combined investment strategies that consistently predict above-market returns. The result is a comprehensive investment mosaic that illustrates clearly those qualities and characteristics that make an investment attractive or unattractive. This valuable work contains:

  • A wide variety of investment strategies built around the seven basics that drive future stock market returns: profitability, valuation, cash flow generation, growth, capital allocation, price momentum, and red flags (risk)
  • A building-block approach to quantitative analysis based on 42 single-factor and nearly 70 two- and three-factor backtests, which show the investor how to effectively combine individual factors into robust investment screens and models
  • More than 20 proven investment screens for generating winning investment ideas
  • Suggestions for using quantitative strategies to manage risk and for structuring your own quantitative portfolios
  • Advice on using quantitative principles to do qualitative investment research, including sample spreadsheets

This powerful, data intensive book will help you clearly see what empirically drives the market, while providing the tools to make more profitable investment decisions based on that knowledge--through both bull and bear markets.

Perfect Fit!
This silicone fits like a glove and keeps that slippery and fragile Apple remote from slipping right out of your hands. Great value and well made product!

An Elegant and Secure Solution for Remote Control Storage
Color: Red
One of the first aspects I noticed was the impeccable fit of the case. It cradles the remote with precision, ensuring a snug and secure hold. This tight fit protects the remote from accidental drops and minimizes the risk of misplacement—a common concern in busy households or shared spaces. The peace of mind this provides is genuinely appreciable. The case's construction is made of lightweight and durable material. Despite its slim profile, it offers reliable protection against daily wear and tear, keeping the remote pristine. This balance between portability and sturdiness is a testament to the quality of its design. Another thoughtful feature is the minimalist aesthetics. The case seamlessly complements the Apple TV remote’s sleek design, blending harmoniously with modern decor. It’s a small yet impactful detail that enhances the overall visual appeal of my entertainment area. Moreover, the case is straightforward to install and remove. This user-friendly approach ensures I can switch between setups or clean the remote with minimal hassle—a convenience that should not be overlooked.

Perfect remote case!
Color: Red
100% worth every penny for this! Apple seemingly makes their remotes from sheets of aluminum foil, if you fart to close to one, the wind will dent them. That being said- This case solves that. The fit and finish is apple quality (the quality of their other products, not the remote made of play doh), it doesn’t add much bulk, easy to use and snaps right in place, and has an almost soft feel with some grip so it won’t slide off the arm of a couch or recliner. The red band of color is great for making it stick out and easier to find as well. 10/10 would recommend!

Exceeded expectations.
Color: Blue
This simple yet effective case covers the back with a clear plastic window and fully encases the remote's edges. My kids dropped the old remote far too many times, and being made of aluminum, it dented and the IR piece in the front broke. I even bought a new remote, BUT, once I put this case on the old one (gluing the IR window back on), I discovered I no longer need the new remote, as this will last a long long time. I wish I had bought this from the start. Why didn't I? because I thought it would make it bulkier. Sure it's a little wider, but feels pretty good in the hand, and the weight difference is negligible.
