Jim Simons, the founder of Renaissance, used to break Soviet codes at a classified defense institute under the Pentagon.
Then he wrote a letter to the New York Times against the Vietnam War. His boss called a general, and Simons was fired the same day.
He left and built Medallion. The best performing fund in Wall Street history.
In 1988 he made the decision that changed everything: trade by the models only. Blindly. No matter what you think in the moment.

How a quantitative framework pushed Oil to minus $37 and mathematically printed $660,000,000 in exactly 24 hours
In April 2020, retail traders bought the oil dip at $1, relying on human logic: "It can't go below zero." But institutional algorithms didn't care about human logic,they aggressively shorted the market into the abyss
The machines broke the zero bound, crashing the price to -$37.63. While a small group of quantitative traders extracted their $660,000,000 profit, the automated liquidation engines wiped out $1,400,000,000 from retail accounts, forcing over 60,000 regular people into massive debt
Do you still believe the markets are moved by the news, or do you finally see that cold math always beats human logic?
Bookmark & watch Bloomberg break down how this $660M trade was executed. Then read the thread below to see how these systems operate today
The PGA Championship begins this week.

Here's your official 5 best bets for The PGA Championship:
Salvador Dalí adorava jantar bem.
Grupos grandes.
Mesas longas.
Vinhos caros.
Os melhores restaurantes de Paris e Nova York.
E sempre insistia em pagar a conta.
Ninguém desconfiava.
Na hora de fechar, ele preenchia o cheque com o valor total, com calma e elegância.
Assinava.
E então, antes de entregar ao garçom, virava o papel e rabiscava um desenho no verso.
Um esboço rápido.
Elefantes.
Cavalos.
Figuras surreais.
Assinava embaixo.
E entregava o cheque ao estabelecimento.
Dalí sabia exatamente o que aconteceria a seguir.
O dono do restaurante não descontaria o cheque.
Colocaria numa moldura.
Exibiria na parede do melhor ponto do salão.
Um Dalí original, emoldurado, no restaurante.
Valia infinitamente mais do que qualquer refeição.
Os cheques com seus desenhos foram todos guardados.
E hoje valem uma fortuna.
Há relatos de que a prática aconteceu diversas vezes ao longo dos anos, em Paris e em Nova York.
Em uma das noites documentadas, no Café de la Rotonde em Paris, Dalí pediu ao garçom uma folha de papel, esboçou um elefante de tromba erguida, assinou embaixo e entregou com desenvoltura.
A conta estava paga.
E o estabelecimento havia lucrado com o negócio.
O que Dalí fez não era só excentricidade.
Era uma compreensão precisa de que o valor da sua presença e da sua assinatura já haviam superado o preço de qualquer cardápio.
Ele não precisava de dinheiro para pagar.
Precisava apenas de um pedaço de papel e de saber o quanto valia.
