Full Text of JOE Listing:

DeepMacro is a Fintech company that provides early, independent assessment of global macroeconomic conditions, based on data collected from the internet, and applies these assessments to financial markets. We believe there is great demand for alternatives to the market echo chamber to assess the global economy and its implications for asset prices. We also believe that economics and market research is too dry and emphasize new and engaging ways of conveying views about economies and markets.

DeepMacro applies insights from our global macroeconomic system to financial markets. As a portfolio strategist, you would be in charge of constructing asset portfolios on the back of the automated system DeepMacro has created to monitor the global macroeconomy and its features that are important for asset prices: growth, inflation, sentiment, and sectoral developments.

DeepMacro is a “Fintech” company that is applying technology to idea generation. As such, you would be working with the firm’s chief economist, and with its growing data science team.

The emphasis will be on incorporating macro information into portfolio construction across multiple asset classes.

The DeepMacro founding team combines many years of expertise in global macroeconomics, systematic portfolio strategies, Internet data acquisition, unstructured data mining, and the entrepreneurial delivery of Internet growth analytics and Intelligence as a Service (IaaS).
We are currently acquiring and analyzing large amounts of data to deepen our understanding of the global economy. If you want to learn more, please contact us!
