Because of this, new quantitative approaches are being used such as the stepwise regression. The idea behind this analysis, is to find the variables, or factors, that could best describe an investment thesis, in order to determine if there is an added value to any particular investment decision. By doing this, hedge funds gain a competitive advantage, as they can hand pick high performing investments that proved to generate alpha. This process is discussed in the present work, for a particular investment thesis, with a precise description of the process used
