Ask HN: disrupting fund management
in April 2011 IBM released a repirt that the fund management industry destroys $ 1.3 trillion globally each year - through bad advice, high fees, underperformance...etc. The report was pulled 4 days later...I've been in this industry 
myself for a very long time and know that this figure is probably correct.That prompted me to create a platform that will allow a user to select from a number of academically and empirically researched investment approaches one or more that suits him/her, test it on the instrument of his/her choice and subsequently invest accordingly.
At the moment it is very patched up with no interface etc. Looking for pot. coder/CTO to turn this into a highly automated app through which at a second iteration a user can immediately invest automatically if so desired. 
Any other ideas in this context very welcome.
