An active “all-weather” strategy that aggressively trades U.S. stocks—especially tech—while using bonds, gold, commodities, and even bearish funds as protection when market trends weaken.

This strategy splits money into two parts: an aggressive stock-timing side and a safer diversifier side. On the stock side, it mainly trades the S&P 500 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq. When trends look strong, it owns them—sometimes with extra-aggressive 2x funds. When markets look overheated, it shifts to long-term U.S. government bonds. When markets weaken, it may move to bonds, very short-term Treasury funds, or funds that rise when stocks fall. Separately, it only owns commodities, gold, and medium-term Treasury bonds when each of those is in an upward trend; otherwise it parks that money in short-term Treasuries.

Out-of-sample edge: a trend-following, bear-protected multi-asset strategy that beats the S&P on risk-adjusted basis with smaller drawdowns. OOS Sharpe 1.60 vs 1.32; OOS return 20.28% vs 20.16%; max drawdown 12.28% vs 18.76%; Calmar 1.65.
