About

A simple, long-term core ETF portfolio: mostly broad US stocks with extra tech/semiconductor, small-value, and quality tilts, plus international, REITs, gold‑tilted commodities, and a small BTC/ETH sleeve. Maintained by DCA and quarterly rebalancing.
NutHow it works
Pick target percentages for each ETF. Invest new money regularly (DCA) across them. Every quarter, bring each ETF back to its target weight—sell parts that got too big and buy those that fell behind. No timing or forecasts; just maintain the mix.
CheckmarkValue prop
Backtested out-of-sample results show this diversified, tilt-driven core portfolio can beat the S&P 500 on risk. Tech/semis, small-value, quality, plus gold/REIT/crypto diversifiers add resilience and upside beyond the market.

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.
