Systematic equity intelligence for alpha hidden in plain sight
In Plain Sight is a modular probabilistic ranking framework that produces model-ranked lists of securities using publicly available market, financial, and relative-strength data. The framework separates durable structural participation quality from tactical alpha opportunity and special-situation/regime behavior. It is designed for reproducibility, point-in-time integrity, conservative calibration, and testability against simpler baselines
IPS Investment Philosophy
IPS is built on a simple investment philosophy: durable performance comes from separating business quality from market setup. We seek companies with strong structural characteristics—consistent SPY-relative participation, resilient fundamentals, high-quality cash flows, and sound balance sheets—while also respecting tactical conditions such as valuation, relative strength, estimate revisions, and market regime. The goal is not to predict exact prices or chase narratives, but to estimate the probability of how a security may perform relative to SPY over the next 12 months using a disciplined, transparent, and conservative framework. IPS favors repeatable evidence over opinions, applies risk gates before ranking candidates, and clearly distinguishes long-term compounders from shorter-term regime opportunities.
