Empowering individuals to become more independent and financially astute — so they can pursue their goals with clarity, confidence, and the right tools in hand.
About Rich Correia, CFA
Rich Correia is a CFA charterholder with experience spanning investment management, portfolio analysis, financial modeling, and AI/ML-driven research. The CFA designation represents one of the most rigorous and respected credentials in the investment profession — requiring mastery of ethics, portfolio management, equity valuation, fixed income, derivatives, and alternative investments across a multi-year examination process. That foundation in rigorous financial analysis, combined with a strong engineering and analytical background, created a natural fit for developing the deep learning models that power the portfolio strategies on this platform. The ability to think in systems, build quantitative frameworks, and stress-test assumptions across thousands of scenarios is where the disciplines of engineering and investment analysis converge — and it is precisely that intersection that drives the work here.
Correia Investment Solutions was created out of a conviction that institutional-quality financial analysis should not be reserved exclusively for large institutions and wealthy clients. Building deep learning portfolio models that can identify high-conviction investment opportunities across the S&P 500 — models that incorporate fundamental data, valuation frameworks, Monte Carlo simulation, and macroeconomic signals — requires both the quantitative rigor of an engineer and the market intuition of a seasoned analyst. That combination is what this platform is built on. With the right tools, frameworks, and education, individual investors can make better decisions, build stronger portfolios, and plan more effectively for the financial futures they want.
"The most powerful investment an individual can make is in their own financial knowledge. When you understand how markets work, how to value assets, and how to plan for the long term, you stop reacting to noise and start making decisions grounded in evidence and discipline."
What Drives This Work
Financial independence is not just about accumulating wealth — it is about having the knowledge, the tools, and the confidence to make informed decisions at every stage of life. Too many individuals hand over their financial futures to advisors or institutions without truly understanding what is being done with their money, why certain decisions are made, or what trade-offs are being accepted on their behalf.
This platform exists to change that. The goal is not to replace professional advice but to give every individual investor access to the same analytical frameworks, quantitative tools, and research-grade thinking that professionals use — so they can ask better questions, hold advisors accountable, and make more independent, informed decisions about their own financial lives.
Whether you are 25 and just starting to invest, 45 and building toward retirement, or 65 and managing distributions — the principles of sound portfolio construction, disciplined risk management, and evidence-based decision-making apply at every stage. This site is built to help you apply them.

Portfolio construction, asset allocation, equity selection, and performance evaluation grounded in fundamental and quantitative analysis.
Valuation frameworks including DCF, FCFE, and Monte Carlo simulation applied to equity pricing and retirement planning.

Scenario-based financial planning tools that stress-test retirement outcomes across savings rates, withdrawal strategies, and life events.

What Correia Investment Solutions Provides
This platform is built around three core offerings designed to move individuals from passive observers of the market to active, informed participants in their own financial futures.
AI-Driven S&P 500 Analysis — A proprietary model trained on quarterly fundamental data generates probabilistic price forecasts for S&P 500 companies across 3-month and 6-month horizons. The model incorporates net income, revenue, margins, ROA, ROE, capital investment, valuation multiples, and industry-relative rankings — giving users a research-grade view of where fundamentals suggest prices are headed.
Two Model Portfolios — A quarterly fundamental portfolio selected through deep quantitative screening, and a tactical rotation portfolio refreshed every two to four weeks based on macroeconomic and technical signals. Both portfolios include built-in share calculators so users can size positions appropriately for their own capital.
Retirement Planning Workbook — An Excel-based financial planning tool with built-in Monte Carlo simulations that answers the questions every investor eventually faces: When can I retire? How much do I need to save? What happens if I make a major withdrawal before retirement? The workbook is fully adjustable and designed to grow with the user's situation over time.
