About
An all‑weather “Dragon” portfolio. It spreads risk across US stocks, Treasuries, gold, commodity trend funds, and a volatility hedge, then uses simple signals to lean risk‑on or risk‑off. Goal: steadier returns across booms, inflation shocks, and crashes.
It splits money into five sleeves: Stocks, Bonds, Gold, Trend/Commodities, and a Long‑Volatility hedge.
Each sleeve shifts using simple gauges: trend vs. average price, size of recent drops, and “hot/cold” readings.
Stocks favor SPY/QQQ in uptrends; move to DIA, USD, or inverse hedges (SH/PSQ) when stress/rates rise.
Bonds hold TLT/IEF in uptrends; flip to TBF, USD, or gold when rates rise.
Trend/Commodities = DBMF, FAAR, COM.
Long‑Vol uses UVXY/VIXM only in panics; otherwise GLD/SHY/UUP.
All-weather, multi-asset strategy with standout out-of-sample risk-adjusted performance: Sharpe 2.17 vs SPY 1.36; max drawdown ~4.1% vs ~18.8%; Calmar ~3.93; near-zero beta (~0.05). Strong upside protection and diversification across regimes.
