Recently, the reporter interviewed industry insiders and learned that since June of this year, brokerage servers have gradually been withdrawn from the stock exchange computer room, and many brokerage firms have prepared new server addresses near the stock exchange data center, and some quantitative private equity firms have also leased cabinets nearby. Due to the significant increase in demand, cabinet rents in relevant locations have risen significantly, and the rent for mainstream 4,000-watt standard financial cabinets has increased by as much as 40% to 50%. A number of private equity sources revealed that due to the “price first, time first” matching principle, there is indeed a need to reduce physical links in quantitative private equity. However, what really relies on speed competition is a small number of “ultra-high frequency” strategies, rather than quantifying private equity as a whole. Leading institutions that focus on medium- and low-frequency strategies currently do not have “roll speed,” but continue to invest in the abundance of sources of excess revenue.
