Quantitative Live Trading Weekly Log Week 11 |2026-10-17| Equity this week: 2,287.32
This was absolutely the most brutal week since I started live quant trading—I got completely battered. I trade US semiconductor RWA quant strategies, and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell for five consecutive trading days this week. SOXL plunged 40% in just one week, while small-cap stocks like CBRS and AAOI also fell by more than 30%. MUU needs no further mention. So this week, I was holding losing positions across the board. This is when risk management is put to the test. Although it was brutal, I m

Warsh said AI is “the most profound economic transformation of my lifetime”—a statement many people overlooked
In his speech at the IMF today, Warsh spent considerable time discussing artificial intelligence. He said AI is the most profound economic transformation of his lifetime, and that AI’s impact on the demand side of the economy will become apparent before supply-side shocks. He also said AI will help central banks gain greater confidence in their assessments of economic data and monetary policy.‌
This may seem unrelated to monetary policy, but I think it’s important.
Why? Because if AI

On this trade war, the former trade minister apparently doesn’t even understand history. Back then, the department he headed pushed hard to avoid a war in Europe, in order to keep Germany from expanding eastward. The lessons of history are right there: in this tariff war, who will be the first to buckle? Where should we set the stop-loss? Those following this, take note.

$GT ‌The Battle for $10.00
GT/USDT is currently locked in a critical psychological battleground. After a sharp rejection from the $10.58 highs, the price has bled out, testing the $9.91 support zone. Right now, the asset is clinging desperately to the $10.00 mark. Is this the bottom for a bounce, or just a pause before a deeper flush? Let's dissect the charts.
🌍 Market Analysis
· Current Price: $10.03 (Spot) / $9.991 (Perp)
· 24h Change: -2.34%
· Market Sentiment: Bearish-to-Neutral. The market has clearly shifted from a bullish uptrend into a corrective phase. The drop below the $10.16-$10.

This wave in the auto industry is giving people chills when viewed on a timeline.
The Stelato V800 “brake pedal” incident had just ignited public opinion when People’s Daily turned around and took aim at “fast-track cars.”
Then Zhao Qiang, editor-in-chief and vice president of People’s Daily Online, resigned.
Three things colliding one after another like this… what a sequence…

The U.S. memory stock sector is experiencing expanding losses, bringing renewed attention to the semiconductor industry and the broader technology market. Memory chips are essential to modern computing, cloud services, smartphones, enterprise servers, and artificial intelligence infrastructure. When memory-related stocks come under sustained selling pressure, investors must reconsider not only individual company valuations but also the expectations driving the wider technology rally.
The memory industry has become particularly important as artificial intelligence companies invest h
