Making Sense · The rise, reach and rallying power of the retail investor in Asia · 14 Jul 2026 podcast

And I think tracking where the retail investor is buying and where the hedge fund investor is buying is also really important because it allows you to see the extent to which there's major concentration and major overlap or not.

And it's always reassuring when you can see that the overlap isn't 100%.

But this is certainly an area we're exploring right now.

So Claire, you've spoken a lot about cash equity trading, but are there also changes in the derivatives markets?

I mean, this has been a hot topic this year.

Well, that is something that investors are clearly questioning on both the fundamental side in terms of the power of the earnings dynamics for these themes, but also on the market structure side.

Well, Claire, this has been such a fascinating conversation and such a critical conversation given the strength of markets and their high share of retail participation in Asia today.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share all of these insights today.

It's been great as always.

And thank you also to our listeners for tuning in to this Making Sense podcast.

And with that, we'll close.

Thank you.

Making Sense · A quant’s guide to finding alpha in commodities trading · 26 May 2026 podcast

Hi, and welcome to JPMorgan's Making Sense. I'm Eloise Goulder, and today I'm delighted to be sitting down here in New York with Kranthi Garde, who is Head of Global Macro QIS Product Structuring, to discuss the commodity space and macro overall. So, Kranthi, thank you so much for joining us here today. Thanks for having me. It's a pleasure. So, Kranthi, could you start by introducing yourself and your background and your mandate here at JPMorgan?

And it's worth noting QIS, standing for Quantitative Investment Strategies, is really about extracting systematic alphas from a given asset class. And we've spoken to many of your colleagues, Kranti, on this podcast series, including Rui Fernandez and Arnaud Jobeur.

So, Kranthi, could we dive into the commodity space? Because there's clearly been a lot of volatility in this asset class this year, with precious metals, both gold and silver, rallying hard into late January this year, and then the energy space rallying into, and in fact, since the geopolitical conflict in March. So, Kranthi, how do you go about extracting alpha in this asset class? And why do you find the commodity space so compelling?

And coming back to what we've seen this year, I mentioned earlier the rally in precious metals into late Jan and then the rally in the energy segment. These have obviously been very powerful trends, but on the other hand, they have had sharp reversals. So how have commodities trend strategies performed this year?

So you've explained trend, which is obviously a very well-known strategy within the commodity complex. After all, it's what CTAs were originally named after. But outside of trend, what are the other key systematic strategies that you attempt to harvest?

Absolutely. And it's really helpful to hear you articulate the rationale behind the systematic alpha that you can extract, whether it's across commodity trend or curve carry or index congestion, which, as you say, is very similar to an equities index rebalance strategy or indeed value skewness, volatility, etc.,

I guess my question is, to the extent that these strategies have become quite well known, do you believe this alpha could be eroded or arbitraged away? And to what extent do you need to continue iterating and enhancing these strategies in order to continue to capture some alpha?

And I can see that the strength of the platform is completely key because it allows you to run all of these different strategies across all of these different assets and all of these different commodities, which creates these diversification or sharp enhancing qualities, but also to the extent that the platform can allow intraday trading.
