About
Monthly momentum in mega-cap tech: from Apple, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Meta, Nvidia, Adobe, and PayPal, buy the 3 best performers over the last month, with an extra 40% in the top name. Rebalanced monthly.
Each month it looks at 8 big tech/tech‑adjacent stocks: Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), Google/Alphabet (GOOG), Amazon (AMZN), Meta (META), Nvidia (NVDA), Adobe (ADBE), PayPal (PYPL).
It checks which ones went up the most over roughly the last month, then buys the top 3. The #1 gets 40%, and the other 60% is split evenly across all three. That makes the top name about 60% and the other two about 20% each. It rebalances monthly.
Mega-cap tech momentum offers outsized growth: ~28% annualized out-of-sample vs ~18% S&P, with Calmar ~1.04 and Sharpe ~1.03. Higher upside potential, but expect larger drawdowns in volatile markets.
