#019 – Gary Antonacci: contrarian investing approach based on excessive exuberance and dire pessimism

System Trader Show

Almost two years ago, I hosted Gary Antonacci, who specializes in investing using momentum anomalies, and that episode was very popular among listeners. Partly due to the fact that such investment model can be straightforward, and in a way, because it is also not very time-consuming. Which, for the sake of clarity, doesn't mean that the investment process itself is mentally simple.
Today I am pleased to host Gary again, but we are talking about an approach to investing that is at the opposite extreme of the momentum anomaly. While momentum takes advantage of long-term trends, today, Gary will tell us how to take advantage of short-term, counter-trend market anomalies in a situation where the market is extremely overbought or oversold.
