Money laundering – the dark side of cash

The paper describes how illicit proceeds are disguised as legitimate money, to explain why cash and its regulation matter. It is a crime, not an investment strategy, and appears here only for completeness.

Why there is no chart

Not applicable.

The lab runs on daily prices for stocks, ETFs, indexes, futures, currencies, crypto and Treasury yields. This strategy from 151 Trading Strategies depends on data outside that set, so it is explained and formalised here rather than backtested.

Hypothetical backtests on daily closes with no slippage unless you add costs. Survivorship bias applies: the stock list is today’s large caps. For learning, not investment advice. Data: Yahoo Finance via yfinance.
