Now we have the required components, we can create both a benchmark rolling futures strategy and our VIX ROC signals strategy. Use the SigTech API to create the rolling futures strategy. Use the SigTech API to create the signal strategy using our signals. Now, performance!

Next, grab the VIX data from the Fred API and compute the 10-day rate of change. Next, build the strategy using the SigTech API:

After the imports, set your API keys, and initialize the Fred API and SigTech client. (Get a Fred API key for free at fred[.]stlouisfed[.]org.)

SigTech. Here's a primer in case you're unfamiliar with SigTech: • Quant tech for institutional investors • Provides data and tools to hedge funds • Customers with $5 trillion in assets under management SigTech was built for institutions. Now you can have it too:

Get access to the SigTech API: • Access the same data as institutions • Free for individual users until November • Backtest multi-asset strategies in minutes sigtech.com/products/api/

With three lines of code, you: • Backtested a custom futures trading strategy • Built a benchmark with the E-mini futures contract • Compared the performance across dozens of statistics All using institutional grade data. So how do you get your hands on the SigTech API?

Your son is already operating at a higher level than most MBA graduates.But he needs to know that the job description is shifting rapidly. By the time he enters the workforce, writing Python execution scripts will be commoditized by LLMs. The future Quant isn't a coder; they are a Model Architect. The Alpha won't come from cleaner syntax, but from interpreting unstructured data. Understanding how Generative AI hallucinates patterns that don't exist. This video is highly relevant because it features a discussion between industry leaders (Oliver Wyman and SigTech), specifically covering how Generative AI is democratizing access to quant strategies exactly the transition your son needs to prepare for. youtube.com/watch?v=bvMfmsfC…

At the Bond Dealers of America conference on technology the last panel of the day was about AI, a sign both of how little AI is used now and the fact it's coming for the fixed income markets. Panelists included Krishna Nadella of Sigtech, Stephen Winterstein of SP Winterstein, Ksusha McCormick of OneAM and Miguel Jacques of Terrapin.

Amazon CEO Andy Jassy dropped a bombshell yesterday when he said the company would become the first mega cap to require all employees to work from the office five days a week. “We continue to believe that the advantages of being together in the office are significant,” Jassy said in a letter to employees. “If anything, the last 15 months we’ve been back in the office at least three days a week has strengthened our conviction about the benefits.” The decision, effectively reversing the flexibility to work remotely that was implemented during the pandemic, was met on social media with a considerable amount of discontent. That’s not a surprise given Amazon employees were vocal in opposing an earlier decision requiring them to return to the office three days a week. At that time, almost 30,000 employees signed a petition against the decision. In addition, there has been evidence that employees in general prefer flexibility. LinkedIn’s CEO Ryan Roslansky highlighted data in 2022 showing job applicants favored remote work. He said more than 50% of job applications on LinkedIn focused on the 14% of listings offering remote options. Jassy’s decision will likely result in a not insignificant amount of departures, particularly among people who moved during Covid and would be disrupted by moving back to Seattle and other offices. I asked SigTech’s Magic platform to analyze the situation. The software, which leverages AI to help build financial models, pulled from historical examples that included Google, Apple, Twitter and Deloitte. Magic identified these key Insights: –Google’s Hybrid Model: 15% expressed strong dissatisfaction with a three-day office mandate. –Apple’s Transition: Faced resistance but leveraged communication to reduce mass resignations. –Twitter’s Shift: Severe backlash with significant workforce reduction due to abrupt policy changes. –Deloitte and Accenture initially saw higher attrition with strict policies until flexibility was introduced. Based on those insights, the SigTech model gave three scenarios for departures at Amazon when it implements the policy in 2025: Conservative Estimate: 20% attrition rate Moderate Estimate: 30%-35% attrition rate Aggressive Estimate: 40%-45% attrition rate Those numbers seem high but it’s worth remembering that Twitter has continued to operate after a stunning 80% of the company’s employees either left or were fired after the acquisition by Elon Musk. It’s also hard to predict the state of the overall economy and whether other tech and retail firms are hiring or laying off. If someone moved to Boulder, for example, they may stay if they can get another job there. The actual attrition rate may also depend on how Amazon implements the strategy. Whatever the outcome, the decision will be closely followed by CEOs at other big tech and finance companies, many of whom have argued that returning to the office full time is important to boost productivity. @sigtech_ai @amazon
