About
Daily, it checks if the S&P 500’s 6‑month trend is up. If so, it owns the 3 best‑performing ETFs from a diverse list (heavy on tech/growth). If not, it holds the stronger of Treasuries (TLT) or gold (GLD). Equal‑weighted; rebalanced daily.
Each day:
1) Check if the S&P 500 (SPY) made money over ~6 months.
• If yes: rank a mixed list of ETFs by 6‑month return and buy the top 3 equally. The list includes big US stocks (SPY), tech/growth (QQQ, FBCG, AI/automation/quantum funds), small caps (IWM), value (VTV), international (VEA), gold (GLD), nuclear (NUKZ), crypto‑industry (FDIG).
• If no: buy whichever did better over ~1 month between long US Treasuries (TLT) and gold (GLD). Rebalance daily.
Out-of-sample shows ~41.7% annualized return vs SPY's ~23.4%, with Calmar ~2; strong risk-adjusted upside. Note higher drawdown (~21% vs ~9%); suited for growth-minded, risk-aware investors.
