About

A focused bet on rising interest rates: long big US financials plus a 3x inverse long‑Treasury fund (TMV), with a sizable cash cushion. Buy-and-hold; high risk if rates drop or financials sell off.
NutHow it works
45% goes to three finance stocks, split evenly: JPMorgan (big bank), BlackRock (asset manager), State Street (custody bank). 55% goes to a rates bet: only 60% of that buys TMV—a fund that moves about 3x opposite to long‑term US Treasuries—so 40% of that slice stays in cash. Net start: ~15% each in JPM/BLK/STT, ~33% TMV, ~22% cash. No rebalancing. It benefits if rates rise; it’s hurt if rates fall.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~23% annualized return vs ~22% for the S&P, with Calmar ~1.12 and 22% cash buffer for downside protection. Slightly higher drawdowns, but strong upside when rates rise and banks benefit.

FAQ

A Composer symphony is an automated trading strategy that executes trades based on parameters of your choice. Some symphonies are similar to holding one ETF in normal conditions and rotating to a different ETF when market conditions shift, for example a 5% drop in the S&P 500, while others use complex rules with dozens of triggers. However, complex doesn’t always mean better. A simple, well-structured symphony can be just as effective as an intricate one. Learn more about how symphonies work here.
