About
A daily, rule‑driven “risk on/risk off” strategy. In uptrends it buys high‑octane funds (often 3x tech/semis). When markets overheat or fear rises, it quickly shifts to cash‑like T‑bills, hedges, bonds, gold/commodities, and managed futures (e.g., KMLM) to defend and diversify.
Think of it as a thermostat for markets. Each day it checks: 1) trend (is the market above its long‑term average?), 2) temperature (a 0–100 “heat” gauge of speed/pressure), and 3) fear (VIX products). If calm and rising, it buys fast‑moving funds (often 3x tech/semis). If overheated or fear jumps, it brakes into T‑bills, hedges (BTAL, VIXM), bonds (TMF/TMV), gold/commodities, or managed futures (KMLM/DBMF/CTA).
A rules-based risk-on/risk-off strategy that diversifies beyond stocks. Out-of-sample: 17.6% annualized return with Calmar ~0.98 and Sharpe ~0.82. Uses cash, bonds, gold, and managed futures to cushion volatility vs the S&P 500.
