About
A three-bucket leverage strategy: 50% Daddy (55% UPRO, 45% TMF), 25% Dry powder (BIL), 25% Bangarang (90-day inverse-vol on TQQQ vs SOXL). Rebalance only when out of a 15% band. High risk due to 3x ETFs; intended for bold growth with a liquidity buffer and volatility-aware tilt on tech/semis.
- The portfolio is divided into three buckets: Daddy (50%), Dry powder (25%), Bangarang (25%).
- Daddy uses two 3x ETFs: UPRO (S&P 500) and TMF (long Treasuries) with a 55/45 split, giving a blended levered growth-and-safety sleeve.
- Dry powder is fully cash-like via BIL (short-term Treasuries).
- Bangarang employs a 90-day inverse-volatility approach on two 3x ETFs: TQQQ (tech) and SOXL (semiconductors). The weight is higher on the asset with lower realized volatility over the past 90 days; the other gets less weight. This creates a dynamic tilt toward the less volatile of the two levered tech bets.
- Rebalancing happens only when allocations drift beyond a 15% corridor (rebalance-corridor-width 0.15), reducing trading frictions but allowing meaningful swings between waves of risk on/off.
- The aim is to chase large market moves (via UPRO and the tech/semis bets) while preserving some liquidity (BIL) and applying a volatility-aware shield to the riskiest bucket. Caution: levered ETFs reset daily, so long-horizon results can differ greatly from simple 3x of underlying indexes. The “Crypto” label is misleading; this is traditional markets with a heavy leverage overlay. For a layman: think of it as three parts – a growth engine (levered stocks), a cash cushion, and a smart, chameleon-like bet on tech that changes with how wild those tech moves look.
Out-of-sample, this three-bucket levered strategy offers higher upside vs the S&P 500 (about 23.6% annualized vs 20.3%), with a cash buffer and volatility-aware tilt to tech/semis. Expect higher drawdowns (~40%) in exchange for potential gains.
