What is Quantamental Analysis?

Quantamental is a word formed from the words “quantitative” and “fundamental”.  Quantamental refers to an investment methodology that combines the following: 1) Quantitative approaches that use factor-based statistical analysis;  2) Technical analysis that generates macro and stock-level entry and exit signals;  3) Fundamental methods that analyze the health of individual companies by examining sales & earnings growth, cash flow, profit margin, level of outstanding debt, return on equity, among others.

In general, fundamental analysis tells us how healthy the company is; technical analysis tells us when to enter and exit a stock; quantitative analysis provides the probability that a stock will breakout and trend in the desired direction, and to what magnitude.
