That does not mean buying copper is the same trade as buying AI.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The distinction matters because a physical input and a financial factor are different objects. AI can raise the long-run demand for electricity and conductive metals while this week&amp;rsquo;s copper return remains dominated by Chinese manufacturing, inventories, the dollar, mine supply and positioning. A power-equipment stock can capitalise years of expected scarcity rents; a nearby commodity future prices a much shorter and more specific physical balance.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>GIVE ALPHA</title><link>https://risklog.pages.dev/log/give-alpha/</link><pubDate>Sun, 02 Aug 2026 19:09:00 +0800</pubDate><guid>https://risklog.pages.dev/log/give-alpha/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Quant research has a face for every stage of the process. The expressions below form a complete research lifecycle: conviction, discovery, doubt, cleaning, robustness, production, and finally risk.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A good meme is a compressed post-mortem. One face can contain several months of preventable work.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="ᕙᕗ-serious-derivation"&gt;ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ Serious derivation&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The idea is still mostly algebra, intuition, and stubbornness. Nothing has been backtested, so the expected Sharpe ratio remains unconstrained by reality.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="ᕦò_óˇᕤ-high-conviction"&gt;ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ High conviction&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The economic story is strong, the mechanism sounds inevitable, and the researcher has begun saying “structural” before opening the data.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Do Stocks and Commodities Move Together? Evidence from China</title><link>https://risklog.pages.dev/log/equity-commodity-linkages/</link><pubDate>Sun, 02 Aug 2026 12:00:00 +0800</pubDate><guid>https://risklog.pages.dev/log/equity-commodity-linkages/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;What happens to stocks when commodities rise? There is no universal sign, but the question is not unanswerable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I use daily Chinese market data from 2 April 2018 through 31 July 2026: twelve commodity main-contract series, the CSI 300, and Shenwan level-one sectors matched to copper, gold, rebar, coking coal, crude oil, PTA, and natural rubber. After cleaning, the sample contains 2,022 trading days and 413 complete trading weeks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The short answer is:&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>About</title><link>https://risklog.pages.dev/about/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://risklog.pages.dev/about/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;by &lt;a href="https://github.com/yanpgwang"&gt;@yanpgwang&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Projects</title><link>https://risklog.pages.dev/projects/</link><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://risklog.pages.dev/projects/</guid><description/></item></channel></rss>
