Pan-Asia Tactical Market Calls (Quant-Driven), MRM Research

Senior Quantitative Strategist at Aethon Capital (crypto fund).

Quantitative Researcher, Algorithmic Trader and former Portfolio Manager at Capital Theory Investment Management, LLC (Austin, TX - USA). 

I specialize in systematic, short-term forecasting for US and Pan-Asian Stocks and Indexes. My methodology is centered on proprietary quantitative modeling (statistical study of trend persistence and mean reversion effects), leveraging probabilistic Bayesian models to predict tactical shifts over a 1-day to few-week horizon.

All models are explicitly human-built—no AI/machine learning—to eliminate black-box risk. This intensive, non-automated approach ensures that every Tactical Market Call is supported by a clear, explainable rationale.

The Nikkei 225 (NKY INDEX) appears very overbought according to our PRICE models. A quick rise in 2 weeks, continuining in the 3rd week. 
The most important catalyst in the next 2 weeks is the Bank of Japan interest rates decision: economists broadly expect the BOJ will raise to 1.00% on June 15.

Many scenarios could play out, hike is expected, but the BOJ's guidance and the yen's reaction are the unknowns that could trigger a temporary sell-off in Japanese stocks.
