In this article, we explore a couple of ways clustering can be used within the investment management process. This includes building a trading strategy comprised of a mix of securities from various sectors such as Technology, Healthcare, Communication Services, and Consumer Discretionary that have commonalities not easily found by traditional sector groupings. https://lnkd.in/g9TTT5HG

How companies are classified can have a big impact on how their risk is modeled, how they are compared to other stocks, and how they are included in portfolios. In our latest piece, we look at leveraging AI clustering techniques to better understand how companies can be grouped compared to traditional static industry groupings. https://lnkd.in/g9TTT5HG
