Axcom Trading Advisors was an early alternative investment management company founded by Elwyn Berlekamp and based in Berkeley, CA. It was acquired by Renaissance Technologies Corp in 1992, whereafter its investment instruments were either subsumed into (or essentially renamed as) Renaissance's flagship Medallion Fund. The name may derive from that of the mathematician James B. Ax.

“His farm was “grounds,” and not a farm at all;
His house among the local sheds and shanties
Rose like a factor’s at a trading station.”
