Winning IMC Prosperity

Last week four friends and I competed in the 2024 IMC Prosperity Global Trading Competition, the "world's most elaborate trading challenge." Yesterday, our team Puerto Vallarta was excited to be named the competition's champions. Today, I want to say a tropical thank you to everyone who made our victory possible.
