About
A tactical switch: when a defense ETF (ITA) shows short-term strength, hold the three strongest defense names/ETFs; otherwise hold an equal-weight energy basket (OIH, XLE, UUUU, VLO, XOM). Simple momentum drives the rotation.
Watch a broad defense ETF (ITA). If its last 3 days beat its last 7 days, defense is heating up. Then buy, in equal parts, the three defense-related stocks/ETFs with the best ~3‑month gains. If not, hold an energy mix in equal parts: OIH, XLE, UUUU, VLO, XOM. Adjust only when the signal flips or weights drift by ~3%.
Out-of-sample, this strategy targets ~47% annualized return vs ~25% for the S&P, with solid risk-adjusted metrics (Calmar ~1.18, Sharpe ~1.34). It rotates between defense momentum and energy to ride trends with disciplined risk.
