Show Notes

In this episode I speak to Seth Leonard, winner of the hackathon at the most recent Eagle Alpha conference.


In our conversation Seth and I talk through exactly how he won, combining multiple alternative datasets to forecast the next inflation figure. As a mild warning, this is more technical than other episodes.


In other news, I will be speaking at the HFM European Quant Summit on Wednesday 17th November alongside Rani Piputri of NNIP, where we’ll be discussing ‘Acquiring and Combining Alternative Datasets’: https://www.hfmeuquantsummit.com/agenda
