okay so today I did something. I wrote a program to pull data from the investment fund website, do some rudimentary analysis, and spit out stuff worth investing in.
it's stopped gapped janky code but it works... I think. I checked some random data points it seems to parse the data properly.
the main challenge was converting raw downloaded data into something that can be analysed. here there's a shortcoming: I haven't yet bothered to figure out how to parse day-by-day data and went with yearly summaries.
anyway, what does one do with yearly summaries? I did least-squares exponential curve.
god now that I think about it, it's kinda basic. it's a page of code. I'm a math student so the coding is extra. but I'm not even good at math. this was useful but it's not cool.
but anyway that's what I did today
