Very enjoyable read. I quite agree that the more that thinking becomes formulaic, the more that process becomes ossified and performance weak. The mega-scale wealth management industry is going to struggle through this.

Interesting. I'm a Hedgeye subscriber, and their entire process is built on top of Mandelbrot's work. It's the best risk management process I've found available to me on a subscription basis, and has helped me navigate a number of critical market regime shifts. Can take a lot of work to follow though, and can lead to a lot of trades being placed. Their super-competitive CEO is also a marmite character - you either love him or hate him.
