An all‑weather mix: levered US stocks, gold, Treasuries, a VIX‑based crash hedge, plus a trend rule that owns global natural resources when rising and parks in short‑term bonds when not. Aims to work across growth, inflation, deflation, and crises.

Target weights, rebalanced daily: 28% stocks (UPRO = 3x S&P 500), 20% gold (GLD), 20% US Treasuries (10% TMF = 3x 20+yr, 10% TYD = 3x 7–10yr), 8% crash hedge (VIXM = VIX futures). 24% trend sleeve: own GNR (global natural resources) when its price is above its 40‑day average (average of last 40 days); otherwise own BSV (short‑term bonds).

All-weather, crisis-hedged mix (gold, long Treasuries, VIX hedge, commodity trend). OOS: ~6.6% annualized vs SPY 13.8%; drawdown ~31.7% vs 22.1%. It adds inflation/crisis protection and diversification to a pure S&P sleeve.
