One year ago, in our article “Can We Finally Use ChatGPT as a Quantitative Analyst?”, we explored the feasibility of leveraging ChatGPT for quantitative analysis. Since then, a lot has changed: newer models are now available (from OpenAI and also other vendors), and the ecosystem around AI-assisted analysis has evolved significantly. Back then, we encountered numerous challenges, ranging from model hallucinations and faulty code generation to excessive overfitting. In this article, we revisit these issues to assess what has improved and what remains unresolved, with the goal of finally answering whether we can use LLMs to assist with quantitative analysis tasks.

Most systematic trading strategies are pro cyclical by nature. They perform best when markets trend higher and volatility remains contained. During broad market expansions, equity risk premia, momentum and trend following approaches tend to generate stable positive returns.
