About
A very aggressive market-timing strategy that usually bets on big tech going up, but can switch into a fund that rises when big tech falls, long-term Treasury bonds, or a volatility hedge when conditions turn risky.
This strategy makes an all-in bet on one fund at a time, usually concentrated in big tech. It first asks: is the overall U.S. stock market healthy? If yes, it usually buys FNGU, a very aggressive fund tied to a small group of giant tech companies.
If the market looks weak, it checks whether stocks have fallen so fast that a bounce may be likely. If so, it buys leveraged tech funds. If not, it shifts to either FNGD, which profits when those big tech stocks fall, or TLT, a long-term U.S. Treasury bond fund, for defense. It also uses UVXY during unusually overheated conditions as a crash-protection trade.
Potentially higher upside than the S&P: out-of-sample annualized return ~21% vs ~16%. Tactical, tech-focused strategy with hedges and dynamic risk control. Note: max drawdown ~56% and higher volatility—suitable for risk-tolerant investors.
