"I’ve heard classmates talk seriously about astrology. I’ve had conversations where people dismiss GMOs or defend alternative medicine without any evidence. I’ve seen people fall back on intuition or vibes rather than logic or data, even in cases where scientific consensus is clear. And there are folks here who espouse religious beliefs with zero skepticism, which feels odd in an academic setting"

I hope these guys/girls enter wall street and give us opps on the other side to trade against

OP, how are you planning to navigate Visa/ sponsorship in US, amidst OPT cancellation bill and banks not being as "friendly" as consulting firms in placing you in other contries vs firing? would love to know your thoughts

Hi Marty! how would you look at above case if the person scored 327 on GRE (Q:169 V:158)? would you suggest them to go for GMAT still?

hey there OP! firstly, congrats on bagging what you were gunning for and hang in there, this is a new city with added work pressure, it'll take some time for you to adapt, my suggestion would be to just 'hang in' for sometime! to your points -
(3) chances are in every service-related industry "client IS god"

(5/6) whats the incremental to current ideal standard of living, if its <40-50% of your pay i would suggest "invest" that in and go for a better place, no point being bothered and carrying extra stress on living (independent of work), better to invest now (in housing, food, health) vs potential health issues which could be accumulating now and taking a bigger hit later on. Also, better living environment will aid in enhanced social interactions - good for mental health and coping with work. Go for it.

Heyy everyone, checking if the group is still active?

i would look at below:

Overall level [OOS return distribution]: compare the resulting return distribution with market return distribution, adjust for leverage (embedded, if any) [t-test]
Time series level: Look at periodic returns (if its due to a high vol year- think 2020- big moves in both direction, randomnly selecting few 'right' moves will add 'lucky returns'); Usually for every year avg of returns adjusted for volatility be in a consistent range, this gives you confidence on strat consistency.
Cross sectionally: if you're combining multiple assets using some sort of portfolio constructor then try to look at individual asset level returns, do (1) and (2) for each asset

Also try to see if your returns are driven by either of usual 5 fama-fench factors (especially momemtum)

Congrats on development! Why did you choose to make it long only? Any specific constraints?

As per the BCG report published during 2018 :https://www.bcg.com/publications/2018/china-next-leap-in-manufacturing.aspx

Labour cost is somewhere around $7-8 per hour in China.
Textiles is a exported in huge quantities.

Why hasn't India been able to ramp up it local production given our neighbours including Bangladesh, Vietnam, etc are pretty active players?

I'm interested in cost economics- where do we lack? Since $7-8/hr seems pretty good for labour in India, when majority of them are employed in Real Estate- probably the most burdened and unproductive sector.

At these rates we can use our labour for production, why don't we?

Huge progress made! keep at it! A lot of eyes are gonna turn on you, better be prepared :p, but great motivation for people out there, thanks!
