Method and system for analysis, display and dissemination of financial information using resampled statistical methods

A method for providing statistical analysis of investment data over an information network, comprising the steps of:

• (a) storing investment data pertaining to at least one investment;
• (b) receiving a statistical analysis request corresponding to a selected investment;
• (c) receiving a bias parameter, wherein the bias parameter determines a degree of randomness in a resampling process;
• and,
• (d based upon investment data pertaining to the selected investment, performing a resampled statistical analysis to generate a resampled distribution.

A system for providing statistical analysis of investment information over an information network comprising:

• a financial data database for storing investment data;
• a client database;
• a plurality of processors collectively arranged to perform a parallel processing computation, wherein the plurality of processors is adapted to:
• receive a statistical analysis request corresponding to a selected investment;
• based upon investment data pertaining to the selected investment, perform a resampled statistical analysis to generate a resampled distribution;
• and,
• provide a report of the resampled distribution.
