About

Mostly holds Pershing Square–style stocks, adds a 20% UVXY hedge when markets look overheated, buys short rebound trades after sharp drops, and otherwise flips to defensive bear funds or T‑bills using quick stock‑vs‑bond signals.
NutHow it works
Core: a Pershing Square–style stock basket (Alphabet, Hilton, Chipotle, Restaurant Brands, Howard Hughes, Canadian Pacific, Brookfield, Nike). It watches a “heat” gauge (RSI, 0–100). When markets look hot, it keeps 80% there and puts 20% in UVXY (a fear/vol hedge). After sudden drops, it splits: half stays, half tries a short rebound in leveraged tech/semis. If not bullish/oversold, it shifts to bear funds or T‑bills based on stock‑vs‑bond checks.
CheckmarkValue prop
Strong out-of-sample edge: Sharpe 1.18 vs 0.97, annualized return 46% vs 17%, max drawdown 15% vs 19%, beta ~0.79, and Calmar 3.11—delivering higher, smoother growth with less market risk than 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.
