About

A defense-focused stock mix (e.g., Lockheed Martin, RTX, Palantir, Kratos, Rocket Lab) that tilts toward the calmest names over the past week and away from the jumpiest. Rebalanced weekly to try to reduce choppiness.
NutHow it works
Each week it looks at a basket of defense and security stocks (drones, missiles, space launch, software, training, maintenance). It checks how bumpy each stock’s price was over the last 5 trading days, then gives more weight to steadier names and less to jumpy ones, and rebalances.
CheckmarkValue prop
Defense-focused sleeve using inverse-vol weighting with weekly rebalancing aims to dampen choppiness and diversify away from the S&P. Out-of-sample Calmar ~1.12 suggests meaningful risk-adjusted upside over drawdowns, even with modestly lower raw returns than SPY.

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.
