Wall Street is once again showing a prosperous scene as the stock market continues to hit new highs, and investors' risk appetite is also rising. Alternative investment strategies have also been successful. Both the S&P 500 Index and the Nasdaq 100 Index closed at historic highs this month, thanks to the strong profit performance of large tech companies and the momentum of Apple's earnings forecast. Despite optimism in traditional asset markets, a different scene is emerging in the field of alternative investment strategies. According to data from the Hedge Fund Research Institute, hedge funds attracted a total of $45 billion in the first quarter of this year, setting a record for the highest quarterly inflow since 2007 and bringing the industry's total assets to a historic high of $5.2 trillion. According to data from Societe Generale in France, trend-following quant funds have seen a year-to-date increase of about 10% in May, outperforming the US stock market.
