Price and Panic: The Algorithm That Found AI Alpha

The “Price vs. Panic” report documents how the INSTAT mathematical awareness tool successfully navigated the severe global market turmoil of April 2025, which was driven by aggressive new trade tariffs and geopolitical upheaval. The report explains that while the consensus suffered from the emotional paralysis of the Fear-Panic-Greed cycle, the system focused solely on pure price action across 1,500 securities to dismiss the catastrophic crash narrative. This analysis identified a critical market bifurcation, revealing a dangerous “Safety Trap” where investors clung to traditional consumer brands that subsequently significantly underperformed. In contrast, the aggressively sold-off AI infrastructure supply chain stocks were merely coiling before experiencing an average gain of nearly 189% following the panic low. Ultimately, the report champions the INSTAT methodology as a psychological shield against political noise and anxiety, proving that simple mathematics provides the only trustworthy signal for investors.
