Why are Algorithms better investors?
There are wild speculations on what percentage of trading is done by Algorithms.
Technically most orders are initiated by algorithms as brokers use algorithms to get you the best outcome. However, about half of all trades are initiated by Algorithmic trading strategies and another 30% are caused by rebalancing algorithms.
Twenty years ago that was close to zero. So how do we get such a shift? Algorithms must be better at trading than humans. Why would that be?

Algorithms don’t

have emotions.
Algorithms get a kick out of scanning millions of data points and make sense of that data soup. Humans are smart, but we cannot process as much information as computers can.
This means we will always be at a disadvantage when
taking fast decisions.
The biggest challenge is, of course, that if you want to trade on a stock exchange on the other side of the world, that they will be active when you are sleeping. Algorithms can work 24 hrs a day and never get tired.
