About

A stagflation defense mix: inflation‑linked bonds, gold/commodities, real estate/infrastructure, plus a 20% sleeve that flips between value/defensive stock sectors or cash‑like bonds based on whether TIPS are trending up. Includes small EM/FX diversifiers.
NutHow it works
Built to cope with high inflation + weak growth. • 30% TIPS (inflation‑linked US bonds: TIP/VTIP). • 25% real assets: gold (GLD), broad commodities (DBC), agriculture (DBA), oil (USO). • 15% property/infrastructure (VNQ, NFRA). • 20% switch: if TIPS trend up (1‑mo avg > 3‑mo), own value/defensive stock sectors (VTV, XLE, XLB, XLP, XLU); else hold cash‑like bonds (FLOT, BIL). • 10% diversifiers: EM stocks (EEM), foreign gov bonds (BWX), Aussie dollar (FXA). Rebalanced monthly.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe 1.47 vs SPY ~1.18, Calmar 4.58, max drawdown 2.09% vs 5.07%. Inflation-hedged mix delivers steadier, lower-risk growth with upside protection versus the S&P 500.

FAQ

A Composer symphony is an automated trading strategy that executes trades based on parameters of your choice. Some symphonies are similar to holding one ETF in normal conditions and rotating to a different ETF when market conditions shift, for example a 5% drop in the S&P 500, while others use complex rules with dozens of triggers. However, complex doesn’t always mean better. A simple, well-structured symphony can be just as effective as an intricate one. Learn more about how symphonies work here.
