About

An aggressive twist on the “Permanent Portfolio”: 3x stocks (UPRO), 3x long Treasuries (TMF), variable‑rate preferreds (PFFV), and gold (GLDM) held in roughly equal parts. Built to balance growth and crisis hedges, but expect big swings and deep drawdowns.
NutHow it works
It splits money across four buckets and holds them: about 25% UPRO (3x the daily move of the S&P 500), 27.5% TMF (3x long U.S. Treasury bonds), 25% PFFV (variable‑rate preferred stocks for income), and 22.5% GLDM (gold). UPRO seeks growth, TMF helps in recessions, GLDM hedges inflation, PFFV adds income. There’s no set rebalancing schedule.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers higher growth with balanced risk: 33.49% annualized vs 29.29% S&P, Sharpe 1.70 vs 1.41, Calmar 2.57, and a slightly smaller max drawdown (13.05% vs 13.73%), with lower beta (~0.75)—more upside, controlled downside.

FAQ

A Composer symphony is an automated trading strategy that executes trades based on parameters of your choice. Some symphonies are similar to holding one ETF in normal conditions and rotating to a different ETF when market conditions shift, for example a 5% drop in the S&P 500, while others use complex rules with dozens of triggers. However, complex doesn’t always mean better. A simple, well-structured symphony can be just as effective as an intricate one. Learn more about how symphonies work here.
