About
Daily, it times emerging markets with leverage. If conditions look healthy, it buys a 3x EM fund (EDC). If they look risky or overheated, it shifts to one defensive fund or pairs it with a 3x EM bear (EDZ), guided by simple trend and RSI-style risk signals.
It’s a switch that decides daily between: going long EM hard (EDC, a 3x EM fund), going short EM (EDZ), or hiding in one “safe” ETF (short/long U.S. bonds or Consumer Staples). It uses simple signals: trend (is EM above its 200‑day?), and RSI (a short‑term up-vs‑down “speedometer”: <30 = washed‑out, >80 = overheated). It also checks if bonds are stronger than stocks; if yes, it plays safer. Often it splits 50/50 between EM and one safe pick.
Out-of-sample: much higher risk-adjusted gains than the S&P—strong Sharpe, smaller drawdowns, and negative SPY beta. With about 236% annualized return, it offers bigger upside and better diversification.
