About
A rotating portfolio of 10 tactical mini-strategies that chases the 3 strongest recent approaches, while often retreating to bonds or other defensive assets when markets look stressed.
This is a ‘strategy of strategies.’ It watches 10 different mini-systems and each month/day (depending on platform settings) puts money into the 3 that have been doing best recently.
Those mini-systems mostly trade Nasdaq stocks, defensive sectors, Treasury bonds, gold, and emerging markets. They use simple market ‘temperature’ checks to either buy beaten-down assets, follow strong trends, or hide in bonds when markets look risky.
Out-of-sample, this strategy-of-strategies targets ~34% annualized return vs SPY’s -16.6%, with Sharpe 1.68 and Calmar 5.74, and beta ~0.36. It rotates 10 mini-strategies to chase momentum and defend in downturns, delivering risk-adjusted gains.
