About
Own the two big‑tech stocks that rose the most over the past month, from a set of Apple, Microsoft, Google, Meta, Amazon, Nvidia, Adobe, and PayPal. Rebalanced monthly and split 50/50 across the two winners.
Once a month, it looks back one trading month (~20 days) at eight big‑tech names: Apple, Microsoft, Google (Alphabet), Meta, Amazon, Nvidia, Adobe, and PayPal. It picks the two with the biggest gains and invests 50/50 in them. Next month it repeats.
Out-of-sample edge: ~29% annualized return vs ~14% for the S&P, Sharpe ~0.90 vs ~0.82, and positive alpha, by riding monthly mega-cap tech momentum. Higher drawdown risk, but strong upside in tech rallies.
