Trading Site of the Day -- KQuant: Pointers to Who's Who and What's What
K|Quant is a nice, eye pleasing site
introducing one to the world of Quantitative Finance. Stereotypically, it is Rocket
Scientists, also known as Physicists, who are known to be comfortable in this type of
work.
However, the site's maintainer, Rico Blaser, does a great job of introducing the niche
field to the aspiring quant. He has a page describing some good books for getting
introduced to the mathematics of the field. He also has some good links to the
pages of
well known researchers, authors, and personalities of the field.
The one drawback is that it doesn't appear to be updated very frequently. On the other
hand, it is a good source of basic information.
