About
A very aggressive market-timing strategy that rotates among big tech stocks, leveraged Nasdaq bets, bearish tech trades, and defensive positions based on recent market strength, weakness, and volatility.
This strategy scans several mini-strategies built around big tech names like Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, and Tesla. It looks for stocks that have recently been weak or unusually jumpy, then keeps only the 2 mini-strategies with the strongest medium-term trend.
Depending on market conditions, it may buy a tech stock, a leveraged Nasdaq fund, a bearish tech fund, a volatility product, or short-term Treasury bills.
Dynamic tech-rotation strategy: out-of-sample ~33% annualized return vs S&P ~20%, with positive alpha and Calmar ~0.77. Higher upside potential and adaptive risk controls, but expect drawdowns up to ~43% in stressed markets.
