Numerai crypto up 41% after JPMorgan’s $500m commitment

With its latest JPMorgan deal, crowdsourced quant hedge fund Numerai will more than double its assets under management.

Summary
  • JPMorgan commits $500M under management by Numerai
  • Numerai is a crowdsourced quant hedge fund powered by crypto
  • Quant traders have to stake NMR tokens to make predictions

The crowdsourced quant hedge fund Numerai, backed by legendary investor Paul Tudor Jones, got another major backer. On Tuesday, August 26, Numerai announced that it had secured a $500 million commitment from investment banking giant JPMorgan. The deal more than doubles the quant firm’s assets under management, which are currently at $450 million.

JPMorgan’s commitment adds both institutional legitimacy and a potential new source of revenue for Numerai. For one, with more assets under management, Numerai can expect greater revenue. For this reason, the NMR token rose 41.03% after the announcement and is currently trading at $11.65. Despite the latest surge, the token is still trading below its multi-month high of $25.58 in December 2024.

How the Numberai quant hedge fund works

Numerai is a crowdsourced quant hedge fund, powered by its own native crypto. It enables freelance quant traders to submit their prediction models by staking numeraire (NMR) tokens. Winners earn rewards, while losers lose their staked tokens. What is more, Numerai adds the best-performing models to its master fund, which trades in equities.

JPMorgan committed its funds after the fund achieved a 25% return in 2024, recovering from a loss it suffered one year earlier. Paul Tudor Jones, a world-famous hedge fund investor, is one of the investors in the fund.

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

The post BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BlackRock is steering $185 billion worth of model portfolios deeper into US stocks and artificial intelligence. The decision came this week as the asset manager adjusted its entire model suite, increasing its equity allocation and dumping exposure to international developed markets. The firm now sits 2% overweight on stocks, after money moved between several of its biggest exchange-traded funds. This wasn’t a slow shuffle. Billions flowed across multiple ETFs on Tuesday as BlackRock executed the realignment. The iShares S&P 100 ETF (OEF) alone brought in $3.4 billion, the largest single-day haul in its history. The iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) collected $2.3 billion, while the iShares US Equity Factor Rotation Active ETF (DYNF) added nearly $2 billion. The rebalancing triggered swift inflows and outflows that realigned investor exposure on the back of performance data and macroeconomic outlooks. BlackRock raises equities on strong US earnings The model updates come as BlackRock backs the rally in American stocks, fueled by strong earnings and optimism around rate cuts. In an investment letter obtained by Bloomberg, the firm said US companies have delivered 11% earnings growth since the third quarter of 2024. Meanwhile, earnings across other developed markets barely touched 2%. That gap helped push the decision to drop international holdings in favor of American ones. Michael Gates, lead portfolio manager for BlackRock’s Target Allocation ETF model portfolio suite, said the US market is the only one showing consistency in sales growth, profit delivery, and revisions in analyst forecasts. “The US equity market continues to stand alone in terms of earnings delivery, sales growth and sustainable trends in analyst estimates and revisions,” Michael wrote. He added that non-US developed markets lagged far behind, especially when it came to sales. This week’s changes reflect that position. The move was made ahead of the Federal…
