Prologue

In the world of finance, it is widely known that big money can generate even bigger profits. Hedge funds and investment banks operate with vast sums of money, often working with nine-figure amounts. Their ability to generate substantial profits stems from various activities such as credits, short and long-term investment projects, initial public offerings (IPOs), and trading on capital markets. Among these activities, trading plays a significant role in driving their profits, as revealed in annual reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

However, the landscape of trading has evolved significantly in recent years. The traditional image of traders working at terminals in Wall Street investment banks has been replaced by sophisticated trading algorithms. These algorithms execute hundreds of trades per minute, accumulating small profits from each trade and transforming them into substantial returns. To gain further insight into this transformation, we recommend exploring Michael Lewis' book or watching the Netflix movie "Flash Boys," which delves into the realm of high-frequency trading (HFT).

This shift towards automation and algorithmic trading has also made its way into the cryptocurrency industry. Many are familiar with the concept of trading bots, APIs, and automatic trading systems prevalent in the crypto market. Additionally, decentralized finance (DeFi) projects like Yearn Finance (YFI) and DeFi offer automated strategies that generate attractive annual percentage yields (APY). However, it is important to note that MULA Invest does not engage in cryptocurrency trading for several reasons.

Firstly, the crypto industry remains largely unregulated, lacking the strong regulatory oversight found in traditional financial markets. Secondly, cryptocurrencies lack the solid fundamentals typically governed by central banks or governments. As a result, accurately predicting their price movements becomes challenging, even when attempting to establish correlations with other assets like the S&P 500. The inherent risks associated with cryptocurrency trading and the lack of acceptable risk-reward ratios within our risk management model deter us from participating in this market.

MULA Invest takes a different approach, focusing on regulated financial markets and employing a multi-process investment strategy. By combining macro fundamental, systematic, and relative value analysis, we aim to generate consistent and superior risk-adjusted performance. Our trading infrastructure, powered by AI and predictive analytics, enables us to make accurate predictions and execute trades efficiently. With a proven track record, robust risk management practices, and a commitment to delivering value to our investors, MULA Invest seeks to provide a secure and profitable investment experience within the realm of traditional financial markets.
