NutHow it works
It buys 30 very large, established companies (each worth $50B+). Each starts as the same-sized slice (~3.3% per stock). It then holds them; there’s no set rebalancing, so weights drift over time. Sector mix: Healthcare ~33%, Tech ~17%, Energy ~13%, Consumer Discretionary ~13%, Staples/Telecom/Industrials ~7% each, Materials ~3%. Examples: Johnson & Johnson, Exxon, Home Depot, Cisco, Marriott, Caterpillar.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: higher risk-adjusted return (Sharpe ~1.50 vs 1.31) and Calmar ~1.67, with far lower drawdown (~12% vs ~19%) and beta ~0.62. Diversified 30-name exposure offers 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.
