AlphaClone is a web-delivered investment research service that lets any investor intelligently apply the stock ideas of top hedge fund and institutional money managers. AlphaClone is the first professional equities research platform that backtests investing in the stock ideas of top managers at the time their stock ideas become public – a process called “cloning.” Independent academic studies have shown the potential for cloning to generate significant excess returns. Cloning also helps professional and self-directed investors validate existing investment ideas and find new ones. The fund managers in AlphaClone’s database are amongst the best stock pickers in the world, a fact reflected in the performance of our clones even during the recent financial markets crisis.
