1. Traders like Ed Thorp, James Simons of Renaissance Technologies, and many others have made fortunes by identifying and trading statistical anomalies.identifying and trading statistical anomalies.
2. Many of these statistical anomalies occur on a short-term basis in oversold conditions when fear is at it’s greatestbasis in oversold conditions when fear is at it s greatest.
3. On longer-term investments, stability (low volatility) outperforms high volatilityoutperforms high volatility.
4. Statistical anomalies still exist today in a number of mainstream strategies as we just learned looking at ETF gaps.
