Equity Strategist vs Equity Analyst
Would you say an Analyst is more of a quantitative-role than a Strategist?

For sure....
Why is it more quantitative?
Is there a reason why someone would pick a Strategist role over an Analyst?
bump... I was trying to put together some research on a stock for a work sample for recruiting, e-mailed somebody that CapIQ said covers the stock, the person responded that she is an Equity Strategist (CapIQ with a whiff). I would like to keep the conversation going and maybe get some good networking out of this, so it would definitely help to be literate on what she does and be able to ask some intelligent questions.
Can anybody give a synopsis of what Equity Strategists do? Relative to what Equity Researchers do?
Thanks,
ping
I always think of equity strategists as top down guys. So, which sectors to over/underweight, small cap vs. large cap, which regions/countries, high beta or low beta, etc.
so they're more at the macro- or market-level rather than individual equities?
Si señor.
Alright I'll try to sound intelligent. Thanks for the info.
@SirTradesaLot: Since you're a HF guy, you would be a good person to ask, but I can't PM, so here goes. Is a functioning model and an amateur equity research piece on a given stock going to move the needle at all with hedge fund people as far as getting me an interview? I know I need to make sure it's a fund with the right kind of strategy, but is that sort of work product from somebody without actual on the job research experience valuable? Feel free to PM me to move this offline if you want
