About
A daily switch: when major indexes are in downtrends and Consumer Staples lead, it moves to T‑bills, stable bonds, managed futures, and inverse/volatility hedges. Otherwise it holds broad U.S. stocks (cap‑ and equal‑weight) with a small dose of leverage.
Checked daily. If SPY (S&P 500) and QQQ (Nasdaq‑100) are both below their 200‑day averages (a long‑term trendline) and Consumer Staples (XLP) shows stronger short‑term momentum than SPY (RSI = a 0–100 recent‑strength score) and XLP is above SPY’s long‑term line, it shifts to Defense: 20% T‑bill ETFs, 20% the most stable bond ETF, 30% managed futures (DBMF), 30% two low‑vol inverse/vol funds (SH/PSQ/RWM/VIXY). Otherwise, it splits equally across SPY, QQQ, RSP, QQQE, plus small slices in 2× SSO and QLD.
Rules-based, diversified strategy that shifts to defense (T-bills, bonds, managed futures, hedges) in downturns and modest leverage in rallies. Out-of-sample Calmar ~3.47 signals strong risk-adjusted performance and diversification vs SPY.
