Will quant trading die?
Now the quants are at the heart of yet another technological revolution in finance: trading at the speed of light. What are the risks of treating the economy and its markets as a complex machine? Will we be able to keep control of this model-based financial system, or have we created a monster? Can they surive with all the new regulations around? Most will say yes! That is what Goldman Sachs is all about!!!

People would like to trade faster. In other words, they would like to buy/sell within seconds, rather than minutes or hours.

I think the risk are more bubbles. If U call bubbles a risk, Goldman Sachs only sees it as opportunities.

Quant trading is becoming immensely advanced very quickly. We're talking about split second trading, where the distance to the stock exchange servers are measured in nano seconds and physical meters, because the longer the network cabel the order has to go through, the slower it will reach the stock exchange and be processed.
I think it will work for a bit, but then when everybody does it, all arbitrage will be edited out and it will be a zero sum game. A few years down the road, I assume it will be banned or disappear because it will cost more than it generates and erodde all human stock market activity.
