Long Short Market Neutral Investment Process Book

Hi everyone,

I am a regular reader of the different informative threads.

I work in the equity business of a LO but would like to move to a fundamental market neutral L/S (either at a MM or SM). I have been trying to find books specific to the topic (especially around investment process / trading implementation of the types of Strat) but so far only found one (''advanced portfolio management'' from Paleologo). I was wondering whether you had other books to recommend (or websites)?

Thanks!

There’s not a book that condenses the MM experience into text. It’s pretty antithetical to the model as you’d be giving up a lot of your edge and knowledge-base that took years to build up.

The Paleologo books are really good - APM a very good practitioners guide to risk while his new book is def more quant heavy but imo worth slogging through
