The Bloomberg quant research team has taken a deeper look at trading based on weather conditions. The research leveraged bespoke snowfall exposure indexes built using two data sets: one containing the GPS locations of all retail stores in the U.S. and the other being a historical database of snowfall measurements in the U.S. maintained by Weather Source. This information was then used to evaluate the effect of significant snowstorms on retail operations, taking regional norms for precipitation into account.
