What The Creative Cloud SaaS Market Monopoly Means For You Creative/design/content creation software-maker Adobe (ADBE) scaled a new all-time high of $152.59 last August 22. I believe ADBE still has a lot of upside potential. I argued last year that Adobe’s invidious status as a monopoly in print/web/mobile design software makes it a long-term winner. My June 2016 thesis still holds true – ADBE remains a strong buy for investors because nothing can compete/threaten Adobe’s most precious jewel, Creative Cloud.Read more.
Should Google Challenge The Adobe SaaS Dominance? I am long Alphabet. However, I am not going to rate it as a buy right now. Google remains overly-dependent on its advertising business. Google’s cheaper subscription rates for G Suite wasn’t still enough to let it catch-up with Microsoft and Adobe in the enterprise Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) market. Google is only no.3 in Collaborative SaaS, and it isn’t yet a factor in Other Productivity Enterprise SaaS. Read more.
Why Facebook Is Interested In Competing With Amazon Facebook (FB) bought Virtual Reality gaming hardware producer Oculus for $2 billion three years ago. It was a strong hint that Facebook really wants to be a vendor of consumer gadgets. Advertising is not going to be Facebook’s sole business. Selling consumer hardware is a small but growing diversification move. Rumor has it that the next product from Facebook is a large-screen video chat gadget called “ Aloha.” It functions like Amazon’s new $229 Echo Show. Read more.
Artificial Neural Networks Are Helping Decode The Stock Market Artificial Neural Networks are computing systems modelled after the structure of the neurons in a human brain. This unique assembly of ‘nodes’ allows for a different kind of computing compared to the centralized processing computers that we use in our daily lives. ANNs don’t rely on a central processor, rather they are composed of many smaller, layered, decentralized processing nodes. Read More.

We recently published several articles on how artificial intelligence is being used in the investment world, specifically how new industries such as Econophysics continue to push the boundary of our investment understanding daily. Dr. Roitman worked on this article, sharing his knowledge of how the worlds of physics and economics intersect and how our further understanding of both have led us to developing the best possible AI-based investment technology.

Gold News: Regulatory Silence Props Up Gold Prices August 28 |Read More
Although there was a recent sudden drop in gold prices after a mysterious trade of more than 2 million ounces of gold on Friday, gold has since recovered and stayed strong following last week’s trends. This unexpected trade occurred 20 minutes before Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen addressed policy makers in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. At the meeting, Yellen made no reference to US monetary policy, choosing to keep a tight focus on financial regulations instead. Combined with later comments made by European Central Bank Chief Mario Draghi, which refrained from mentioning the euro’s strength and mentioned the ultra-loose monetary policy and the euro zone’s economic recovery instead, traders were given a reason to lift gold prices on monetary policy uncertainty according to OCBC analyst Barnabas Gan.
Naeem Aslam, chief market analyst with ThinkMarkets, believes that, since traders were made aware of the Federal Reserve’s position and the European Central Bank’s position, traders will now focus on the momentum instead. This will primarily involve examining movement which is driven by the dollar weakness. The dollar was recently weakened by the storm Harvey, dropping to severe lows and propping up gold.
