My guest today is Gary Antonacci. Antonacci focuses on two issues in the quant world: relative strength price momentum with trend following absolute momentum. He’s developed a strategy where he believes it’s best to combine both.
The topic is his book Dual Momentum Investing: An Innovative Strategy for Higher Returns with Lower Risk.
In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:
- Momentum vs. trend
