Let me share 5 valuable sources that I referenced while learning about factor investing.

I’m finding that the deeper I explore quantitative finance, the more difficult it becomes. This past week I was working through a subsection of the DataCamp course “Introduction to Portfolio Risk Management in Python” about factor investing.

The practices were simple enough, but the course suffers from a persistent lack of context throughout the material. After completing the exercises, I found myself wondering “What does this model even tell me, and why do I care?”

That led me down the rabbit hole. I ended up researching over forty different sources in my attempt to establish a thorough understanding of factor investing. I distilled this information into my latest story, “Diversify Your Risk Exposure With Factor Investing”.

It’s a long story, but I wanted the detail of my explanations to match the difficulty I perceived in approaching the subject as an uninformed novice. If you don’t feel like taking the time to read all of my research, let me cut some time out by sharing five of the key sources I referenced while learning factor investing.
