About
An all‑weather “Dragon” portfolio that balances stocks, Treasuries, gold, commodities/managed futures, and long‑volatility. It uses simple trend and overbought/oversold checks to tilt risk and adds volatility hedges during panics.
The portfolio is split into five sleeves: stocks, Treasuries, gold, commodities/managed futures, and crash protection.
- If stocks are trending and calm, it owns SPY/QQQ/DIA; if shaky or rates rise, it shifts to Dow, cash‑like bonds, the US dollar, or mild shorts.
- If volatility surges, it adds VIX funds (UVXY/VIXM).
- Treasuries (TLT) are owned when trending and not overheated; otherwise it hedges via dollar/short‑Treasury or pairs TLT with gold.
- Managed futures/commodities (DBMF, FAAR, COM) run steadily in the background.
Out-of-sample, the Dragon portfolio delivers higher risk-adjusted returns (Sharpe ~2.17 vs SPY ~1.36) and far smaller drawdowns (≈4% vs ≈19%), with Calmar ~3.93—thanks to diversified stock/bond/gold/volatility hedges.
