A fast-moving strategy that chases the strongest of 4 stock areas, but only stays aggressive when that area looks stronger than KMLM; otherwise it shifts into the strongest defensive asset.

Each day, the strategy looks at 4 market areas—US tech, the S&P 500, emerging markets, and energy—and picks the one that has done best over the last 10 trading days. It then asks: is that area showing more short-term strength than KMLM, a trend-following fund often used as a defensive alternative? If yes, it buys a leveraged fund tied to that area. If not, it moves into whichever defensive option has the strongest recent trend, such as KMLM, long-term Treasury bonds, gold, the US dollar, or a hedged stock fund.

Dynamic sector rotation with a defense overlay leverages the strongest trend and pivots to safety when momentum fades, to diversify risk. Out-of-sample: 4.15% annualized vs SPY's 14.74%, with higher drawdowns—best as a diversification sleeve for regime markets.
