About
A rules‑driven, event‑based portfolio that leans into leaders in uptrends, buys Nasdaq dips, and hedges with cash or inverse funds when markets look overheated or weak. A 30% sleeve rotates between emerging markets and long Treasuries (or cash).
70% core: If stocks look very “hot,” park half in cash‑like T‑bills and half in a small bet against the Nasdaq. If they’re just strong, hold gold. On sharp dips, buy the Nasdaq (sometimes with leverage). In clear uptrends, own a handful of strong stocks; in weak tapes, hedge or sit in cash.
30%: Half flips between Emerging Markets and its inverse using simple risk checks; half owns long Treasuries when they’re strong or washed‑out, else cash.
Out-of-sample stats show the strategy beats the S&P 500 on a risk-adjusted basis: Sharpe ~1.90 vs ~1.03, annualized return ~33% vs ~18%, max drawdown ~7.5% vs ~18.8%, and beta ~0.54—delivering higher growth with far less downside.
