Fusion Analysis:

An increasing number of portfolio managers have realised that fundamental analysis alone often does not make the best investment approach. They have increasingly included the benefits of technical analysis. Also, the volatile trading markets have focused increasing attention on the proper blend of fundamental and technical analysis for a broad array of investors with various time horizons. Some call this new popular trend - fusion analysis. This workshop reviews some of the basic tools of fundamental and technical analysis. It will be geared mostly for the equity investor, but will cover some other asset classes such as fixed income and commodities. It then attempts to blend the best of both approaches to a successful investment strategy. This course will stress three bodies of knowledge: (1) The major tools of technical analysis; (2) The major tools of fundamental analysis; (3) Generating quant stocks screens that provide promising stock ideas that technical and fundamental basis.
