About

I'm a seasoned Lead Buy Side Analyst at DE Shaw, specializing in US specialty finance, REITs, and homebuilders. My forte lies in conducting thorough fundamental analysis, leveraging both reported and alternative data points to identify pivotal catalysts that drive stock rerating. I'm passionate about utilizing advanced analytical techniques like price series analysis, cointegrated pair analysis, and alternate data analysis to uncover lucrative investment opportunities. My journey in the finance realm began at Goldman Sachs, where I honed my skills in equity coverage, particularly focusing on sectors such as real estate, oil and gas, consumer discretionary, cement, and building materials. I excelled in bottom-up analysis, adept at identifying high-quality businesses at attractive valuations while strategically capitalizing on sector-level structural changes. An MBA graduate from IIM Bangalore, I also bring hands-on experience from my involvement in a student-led investor and trading club, where I delved into the intricacies of trading futures and options in the Indian stock market. This experience has equipped me with a strong proficiency in trading FnO. In addition to my valuation expertise, I'm constantly enhancing my skills in Python for data analysis and strategy backtesting, enabling me to make data-driven investment decisions and optimize portfolio performance.
