About
Switches between a concentrated big‑tech/growth basket and an inverse S&P 500 ETF (SH) using simple trend checks on the S&P 500 and short-term tech weakness. Aims to ride uptrends and hedge when trends weaken.
1) Check SPY (S&P 500 ETF) vs its 200-day average price (average of the last 200 days). If above: Risk-On. If below: Risk-Off.
Risk-On: if SPY falls under its 150-day average, hold SH (an ETF that rises when the S&P 500 falls); otherwise hold a concentrated big-tech/growth basket (e.g., NVIDIA, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, Alphabet, plus QQQ).
Risk-Off: if tech (XLK) dropped over 2% in 10 days or SPY is under its 5-day average, hold that same growth basket; otherwise use SH.
Out-of-sample: ~17.5% annualized return, Calmar ~0.93, max drawdown ~18.7%—vs SPY: ~19.2% return with similar risk. Tech-growth tilt plus SH hedge targets upside while dampening losses for better risk-adjusted results.
