About

A Buffett‑style, set‑and‑forget mix: 90% VOO (S&P 500) for growth and 10% VGSH (short‑term U.S. Treasuries) for stability, rebalanced once a year. Simple, broad, low‑cost exposure to big U.S. companies with a small safety cushion.
NutHow it works
Put 90% in VOO (a Vanguard fund tracking the S&P 500—big U.S. companies like Apple and Microsoft) and 10% in VGSH (a Vanguard fund of short‑term U.S. Treasury bonds). Once a year, reset to 90/10 by selling what grew too much and buying what’s short. Stocks drive growth; bonds steady the ride.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers higher risk-adjusted returns (Sharpe ~0.846) and smaller drawdowns (~20.2% vs ~22.1%), blending S&P 500 upside with a smoother, more durable ride for a calmer long-term path.

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.
