About

A five-fund, all-weather mix: 40% U.S. stocks (broad market + small-cap value), 40% Treasuries (long + short), 20% gold. Rebalanced yearly to smooth the ride while still capturing growth in good times.
NutHow it works
Hold five funds at 20% each: VTI (entire U.S. stock market), VIOV (smaller, cheaper U.S. companies), VGLT (long-term U.S. Treasury bonds), SHY (short-term U.S. Treasury bonds), GLDM (gold). Each shines in different economies. Rebalance once a year back to 20% each.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: higher risk-adjusted returns (Sharpe 2.22 vs 1.44), smaller drawdowns (6.96% vs 13.72%), and Calmar 3.59. A 5-asset all-weather mix delivering steadier growth with downside protection vs 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.
