The Internet has made a huge impact on our lives. For instance, you can now hire a driver with just a single click while sitting at your home. Similarly, you can now rent homes with home-sharing apps. The same is the case with the P2P / Crowdfunding platforms. However, these platforms are supposed to provide an opportunity for small businesses that need funds to launch their business idea.

Welcome to The Systematic Investor series. It’s a great privilege for me to invite you to a behind the scenes conversation between some of my favorite systematic investors namely Jerry Parker and Moritz Seibert. We get on a “call” each week to discuss the events that took place through the lens of a Systematic Investor and how the trading strategies we work with are reacting. It’s a raw and honest exploration and we hope you will join and be part of…not least by sending us questions that we can discuss. Please send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.com
