Hey, Michael from Prodigy Research (YC S26) again
Our launch has made the rounds and produced a lot of discourse. Much of it is around a few particular questions: if you have alpha, why raise money at all? and why do YC in particular? Iβll tackle these in order.
First, why raise money at all if you have alpha?
The short answer is that we are raising money for the same reason any business raises money.
There is a lot of what I would call βmagical thinkingβ about trading. Many people have a mental model where a profitable trading strategy is like a magic faucet. You turn it on and unlimited money comes out, simple as. If this were the case, it would be irrational for the owner of such a faucet to raise money. If more money is needed, simply get it out of the faucet.
But in fact, it takes capital to convert alpha to dollars! Prodigy is training models and building the machine that generates alpha. Capital allows us to convert alpha to dollars faster and more efficiently, do bigger and better training runs with more compute, conduct more model inference and research, build infrastructure that allows us to do more demanding kinds of trades, and generally grow the pie faster in a win-win way.
So we could recast this question as: βif you have the core of a really profitable business, why raise money?β
You will notice that this is an argument against raising money in general. A business can be profitable today (as Prodigy is) and yet have extraordinarily high-return opportunities in which to invest marginal dollars. If a dollar spent on compute today can create far more than one dollar of long-term business value, then it is much more rational to raise that dollar than to deliberately grow more slowly to avoid fundraising.
That brings us to our second question: why raise from YC in particular?
Prodigy can build and grow much faster with more compute, and raising equity capital gives us the flexibility to do that. We could have raised outside of YC, but YC offers us things like access to incredibly ambitious founders, partners who know an enormous amount about building companies, and many other resources from which we have already derived a huge amount of value.
Weβre heads-down building right now, and weβre super excited about scaling quant trading beyond human limits.

Luigi Mangione pleaded guilty today to federal stalking charges resulting in the death of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
The federal murder charge that carried a potential death penalty was dismissed earlier this year.
The remaining charges carry a maximum of life without parole.
New York state murder charges remain separate for now.

The US job market is losing workers at an alarming pace:
The US labor force participation rate fell -0.1 percentage point in July, to 61.4%, the lowest since May 2020.
This metric measures the proportion of working-age Americans either employed or actively looking for work.
Excluding the 2020 pandemic, this is the lowest reading since March 1976.
The decrease also marks the 7th monthly decline over the last 8 months, bringing the cumulative drop to -1.1 percentage points.
This comes as -264,000 people left the labor force in July, following June's -720,000 decline, the 2nd-largest monthly decline since 2020.
Since November, the US labor force has shrunk by more than -2.4 million workers.
The US job market is much weaker under the surface than the headline data suggests.

Why are there thousands of women on my timeline defending and identifying with Lindsay Clancy?
She murdered her 3 babies in a prolonged, deliberate act of strangulation. Those children spent their final minutes fighting for air, watching their mother, the one whose primary vocation was to protect and care for them, kill them one by one while they witnessed their siblings die the same way. Absolute betrayal. Absolute evil.
There is no amount of βmental health,β postpartum narrative, or soft language that turns the systematic killing of three helpless children into something that deserves sympathy or identification. They are erasing the victims and treating the murder of toddlers as a complicated feeling instead of an unthinkable atrocity.
This was not a tragedy that βhappened toβ her. It was something she did to them. The only just punishment is execution. Anything less spits on the graves of three children who died terrified and betrayed by the person who was supposed to love them most.
