No?

not perfectly, but some quant HF's have been doing very well with their algortithms. much better than 99.99% of humans. you don't think most of the stock volume is humans do you?

this. Wall Street is essentially automated.

I'm just worried about majoring in these kind of fields. I feel like we're in the midst of another kind of revolution

that's where I think you're overeacting, much of stock volume may be automated but wall street isn't. traditional brokers, wealth managers and consultants may take a hit as algotrading is consistently netting higher ROI even with high comissions charges. but, most of wall street extends beyond trading. computers can't facilitate deals, get clients, and create research reports.

algotrading is very reactive, not proactive. so it'll react to much it can't do. the future of wall street is fine for most roles outside of trading, but a math degree (or any quantitative degree such as engineering, physics, CS) will probably make you a more competitive candidate than just a finance degree as long as you have a connection to finance (minor, dual major, connections, interships)

Good points.

what do you think are going to be the big money making positions after automation of those said jobs?

Just get into sales if you're worried about automation

>>1428372
As well as analysts can.

really? I think everyone will be buying shit online in the next decade. I think online marketing (whatever degree that is) will be better than sales.
