this would have been more understandble, at least for anybody (whow is just about everybody) who does not know what Black Sholes is.

Q. Some black-box companies claim to outperform the market. Do they use fractal investing?

A. Many claim to, but when I talk to them I have no evidence that they even understand the concepts. Not very reputable. Some large institutions understand.
