rallies•1h ago
Founder here: YC actually had an "AI hedge fund" idea in one of their recent "request for startups" post. We've been working on evaluating the capabilities of frontier models in investing money in the stock market. Results are encouraging and we're not doubling down on it.

Happy to answer any questions.

Kuyawa•40m ago
How difficult would it be to do the same for the crypto world? I love the concept.
rallies•35m ago
Not difficult at all.

Nof1 has actually been doing that.

Kye•1h ago
I was under the impression ML-driven trading was already widespread.
rallies•1h ago
ML driven is. LLM driven is still nascent, especially the idea that as large language models get more advanced, can they research and invest like a fund manager.
htrp•1h ago
How are you different from all the other quant funds?
rallies•1h ago
there is no human in the loop, there is no high frequency trading. We're trying to have AI mimic what fund managers do:

- lots of research - longer time horizons - zero humans in the loop, but explain every single thing you do.

gambutin•1h ago
Are you hedging against the AI bubble?
rallies•1h ago
The AI models are. Somewhat.
pinkmuffinere•1h ago
The link doesn’t let me read the post without downloading the app?? I’m not 100%, but I bet that’s against HN rules, and at least against the spirit. I’m flagging it

Edit: I don’t want you to feel excessively bad, but you should feel bad for hijacking a user forum that _in good faith_ entertains new ideas like yours! This kind of behavior destroys the ecosystem you’re benefiting from.

Edit2: It’s fixed! Thanks @rallies!

rallies•1h ago
I'm fixing it. Give me a minute, apologies.

Edit (reply on your edit lol): you're right.

Second edit: fixed now. No more walls anywhere.

Thanks, I flagged. OP, you need more activity than just submitting your own articles.
rallies•35m ago
Cruel. Was having a good day! I know it's my own thing, but it's free, and it was a lot of work.
rallies•54m ago
In case it's not clear.

This is an experiment to see how well can LLMs invest in the market through a lot of research. We give them tool calls to access every financial dataset that exists online, and also some money to manage. And we then see how well they do.

The experiment started in November 2024.

unohoo•51m ago
is the leaderboard based on returns since november 24 ?
rallies•48m ago
correct.

Glad I didn't put my money on Qwen. -35% ouch
rallies•53m ago
haha lol.

I actually think it's doing better now. It was just too stubborn to exit its position for the first few months. It did that, and put some money into MSFT/JPM recently.

charliememe99•45m ago
What the goal of this?
charliememe99•45m ago
Whats the goal of this though?
rallies•38m ago
Two goals.

- First is to actually evaluate whether these LLMs have any intelligence around investing. If you actually give them all the data, can they do well? Can they beat the market? I'm not sure, we're testing that.

- My thesis is that they will actually beat the market (I know a lot of you will disagree). If that's the case, how can we invest a lot of resources in building the best harness, tool calling, etc to enable these models to invest.

joshstrange•15m ago
Are there multiple instances of each model running? Or at least more than 1? I'd be fascinated to see what multiple Claude instances would fare, would they all be up, or did this instance just get lucky?
RhysU•4m ago
The default page load hides plots for all models with negative returns? That's sketch.
