The Investment Fund Division of J&D Strategies follows a structured, multi-sector approach to equity and bond investing, aimed at delivering consistent, risk-adjusted returns through disciplined research and diversified exposure. Operating across eight sectors — Technology, Energy, Industrials, Financials, Consumer, Healthcare, Real Estate, and Fixed Income — each sector is managed by a Sector Head supported by a team of analysts. Together, they conduct fundamental research, identify growth catalysts, and formulate high-conviction investment ideas grounded in both industry trends and global macroeconomic developments. All investment decisions are reviewed and approved by the Investment Committee to ensure consistency with the fund’s strategic outlook and risk controls. Each position is managed with institutional precision under defined parameters, including a maximum drawdown of 8%, a daily loss cap of 2%, and a target Sharpe ratio above 1.2. Portfolio diversification is maintained across multiple sectors at all times, ensuring stability and balance across changing market conditions. The Investment Fund represents the cornerstone of J&D Strategies — combining structured research, disciplined governance, and global perspective to transform analysis into measurable performance.
Our investment fund provides exposure across U.S., U.K., European, and Asian indices—including the S&P 500, NASDAQ 100, FTSE 100, DAX, HSI, and NIKKEI 225. This sector forms the core of our long-only and hedged portfolios, allowing us to implement effective trading strategies and enabling directional and relative-value positioning through quantitative research, index ETFs, and futures.
This investment fund concentrates on high-growth areas such as semiconductors, artificial intelligence, and cloud infrastructure. Volatile and data-rich by nature, this sector offers strong signals for momentum and adaptive mean-reversion trading strategies, which can be enhanced through quantitative research.
Our investment fund covers banking, insurance, and fintech equities that respond directly to global rate and credit cycles. Through quantitative research, our models exploit cyclical rotation and inter-bank spread dynamics to identify alpha during policy shifts, enhancing our trading strategies.
This investment fund encompasses sovereign and corporate debt instruments across major markets. Positions are structured through bond ETFs and yield-curve derivatives, leveraging quantitative research to provide diversification and a defensive balance against equity volatility, while incorporating effective trading strategies.
This investment fund targets oil, gas, metals, and renewable energy equities. It leverages quantitative research to provide exposure to commodity-linked inflation trends and macro-hedging opportunities across varying economic regimes, employing effective trading strategies.
This investment fund focuses on producers of discretionary and staple goods, leveraging quantitative research to understand the behavioral and seasonal patterns within this sector. These insights support effective factor rotation and cross-sector pair trading strategies.
This investment fund allocates to pharmaceutical and biotechnology equities, combining defensive characteristics with innovation-driven upside potential. Through quantitative research, this sector stabilizes portfolio variance, particularly in risk-off environments, and enhances trading strategies.
Covers FX, volatility indices, and commodities within an investment fund that enhance diversification and support regime-adaptive positioning.

The Growth Fund at J&D Strategies operates as an unconstrained, research-driven portfolio focused on capturing alpha through innovation, adaptability, and conviction. Unlike the Core Fund’s structured, sector-based approach, the Growth Fund functions as an open framework designed for flexibility and speed.
This division empowers analysts to pursue high-potential opportunities across any market, asset class, or theme. From post-earnings momentum and event-driven trades to small-cap breakouts and macro-driven strategies, every idea is evaluated based on merit, timing, and risk-adjusted return potential — not predefined constraints.
Analysts within the Growth Fund work collaboratively across Quant, Trading, and Macro teams to develop and test ideas using both fundamental research and data-backed methods. The result is a dynamic environment where initiative, independent thinking, and analytical precision are valued as much as performance outcomes.
This fund embodies J&D Strategies’ pursuit of active alpha — an arena where creativity meets discipline, and unconventional thinking drives measurable results.
As an investment fund, we actively trade major currency pairs such as EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, and USD/CHF.

Extraction of predictive features from historical and real-time datasets using correlation, momentum decay, and clustering analysis is crucial for an investment fund's success. These techniques are part of quantitative research that informs effective trading strategies. Signals are stress-tested through walk-forward optimisation and Monte Carlo simulations to ensure reliability under live trading conditions.
Quantitative research focuses on the assessment of drawdowns, exposure overlaps, and dynamic leverage scaling through multi-asset risk engines. The findings from this research directly inform capital allocation and position-sizing rules that are applied in both the investment fund and trading strategies.
Continuous enhancement of the investment fund's research stack involves integrating Python-based pipelines, cloud data storage, and backtesting frameworks to accelerate quantitative research and the development of trading strategies. This enables rapid conversion from concept to executable trading logic.
