    HELPING YOU MAKE SENSE THROUGH THE NOISE
    Whether you have a large portfolio or are just getting started, the IEI provides you education and tools to help build your wealth, make better decisions and reach your goals

Make confident and informed decisions

The IEI is on the cutting edge of research and market studies, developing computerized quantitative models that can assist you in eliminating your emotions and staying ahead of changing market conditions. We consider information disseminated by wall street and the media to be myths, half-truths and noise. We reject the investment profession’s common wisdom that passive, buy-and-hold and diversified strategies are the optimal approach. We believe that you can do better if you don’t follow the herd and have a solid framework for making your decisions.

Diversification is protection against ignorance. It makes little sense if you know what you are doing.
