About
Absolute Value is a systematic investment firm that develops and trades quantitative strategies across public markets.
Our advantage lies in a quantitative research infrastructure combined with modern machine learning designed to continuously generate, test, and evolve investment strategies as markets change. This is a fund built for the advent of Artificial General Intelligence.
What We Do
We trade short-term U.S. equities using systematic, quantitative strategies. All research, portfolio construction, and execution are automated. The firm operates a proprietary research system that continuously allocates capital across evolving signals as market conditions change.

Patrick Flanagan is the founder of Absolute Value. He studies artificial general intelligence at Stanford University and focuses on the intersection of self-improving systems, agentic engineering, market structure, and systematic investing.
Absolute Value was founded on the belief that investment strategies should evolve with markets, and that the firms best able to discover new edges over time will outperform static models.
