About
A rules‑based tactical strategy: if big‑tech momentum is weak or stressed it holds defensive ETFs; when conditions are calm it buys 12 “buy‑the‑dip, turning‑up” names from a wide list. Equal‑weighted, with two market risk checks.
Trend check: if QQQ is below its 200‑day average (long‑term trend), hold defensive ETFs: cash/T‑bills, Treasuries, inflation‑linked, buffer/buyback funds, small volatility trade.
Danger check: if QQQ is above trend but its recent worst 1‑mo drop is big (gauged with PSQ, an inverse‑QQQ ETF), shift to a more defensive basket: cash/T‑bills, Treasuries, dividend/low‑vol stocks, convertibles, volatility hedge.
Stock picks: otherwise, equal‑weight 12 names that are short‑term “cold” by 10‑day RSI (a hot/cold score) yet show strong 21‑day returns.
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe up to 1.37 vs ~1.32 for the S&P, Calmar ~3.16, and outsized annualized return (~74.5%) from a rules-based, regime-adaptive system that shifts toward defensive or equities as conditions warrant.
