I think many firms already have (faster) 'sentiment' tools that parse news messages and automatically trade on those. I don't think a LLM can compete on speed which such tools. But a LLM could build a knowledge graph that parses niche news messages and tries to understand the entire picture and make bigger predictions.

There's always anomalies like copying a politicians portfolio, following insider trades with early recognition, etc, etc.

The market is unfortunately not really efficient. Or well... too efficient at times (insider information).

I didn't get the impression this was about competing on speed.
