About
A highly tactical “all-weather” portfolio that mixes stocks, bonds, gold, commodities, dollar funds, and crash hedges—getting aggressive in strong markets and defensive when fear or rising rates appear.
This strategy spreads money across 5 big buckets: growth stocks, bonds, gold/commodities, the U.S. dollar, and “panic insurance.” It constantly checks whether markets look strong, weak, overheated, or falling, then shifts accordingly.
In calm uptrends it leans into stocks—often aggressively with leveraged tech, semiconductor, and S&P 500 funds. In stress, crashes, or rising-rate periods, it rotates toward gold, short-term bonds, defensive stocks, the dollar, bond trades, and volatility funds that can jump when fear spikes.
An adaptive out-of-sample all-weather strategy that beat the S&P: 25.8% annualized vs 21.1%, Sharpe 1.54 vs 1.37, drawdown 13.8% vs 18.8%. It rotates across stocks, bonds, gold, and hedges to protect downside and pursue growth.
