Tucker Balch
Workshop: Exploring Real-World Applications of AI, LLMs & GenAI in Trading
Join Tucker Balch for a 30-minute session exploring cutting-edge research on how different data modalities, natural language and price data can be used to predict relationships between stocks. This talk will compare NLP-based models that analyse news and sentiment with models that rely purely on historical price data, evaluating which approach better captures inter-stock dynamics. Attendees will gain insights into the strengths and limitations of each method, with real-world examples and implications for quantitative finance and machine learning in trading.
    The session will conclude with a live Q&A where participants can engage directly with Tucker.
