<h2 id="GridCure:-Predictive-Modeling-Challenge">GridCure: Predictive Modeling Challenge<a class="anchor-link" href="#GridCure:-Predictive-Modeling-Challenge">¶</a></h2><p>In persuing some data scientist jobs, I stumbled across an interesting challenge associated with a Data Scientist job posting at <a href="https://www.gridcure.com">GridCure</a>. GridCure roughly "offers simple and customizable solutions to help utilities make sense of their data and implement data-driven change."</p>
<p>Since I'm working as an energy efficiency engineer contracting primarily to electric utilities, I thought my domain expertise might provide some unique insight.</p>

<h2 id="Question">Question<a class="anchor-link" href="#Question">¶</a></h2><p>If you receive a $100,000 windfall, what are the tradoffs between investing those funds immeadiately versus dollar-cost averaging the investment over time?</p>
<h2 id="Background">Background<a class="anchor-link" href="#Background">¶</a></h2><p>Dollar-cost averaging (DCA) and lump-sum investing (LSI) have long been debated. If you believe the market generally goes up, LSI allows you to gain exposure to the market as soon as possible. DCA on the otherhand, minimizes potential feelings of regret (i.e. you invest your lump sum right before a market crash).
