About

Weekly style rotation. If VUG beat VTV over ~6 months, hold an equal-weight basket of big growth stocks; otherwise hold big value names. Concentrated in megacaps; Alphabet appears twice on the growth side, giving it double weight.
NutHow it works
Weekly, compare ~6‑month returns of VUG (US growth) vs VTV (US value). If VUG wins: equally own Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet/Google (listed twice—double weight), Tesla, Nvidia, Visa. Else: equally own Berkshire Hathaway, JPMorgan, Johnson & Johnson, UnitedHealth, Procter & Gamble, Bank of America, Exxon Mobil, Intel, Verizon, Comcast. Rebalance weekly. Tilts: Growth=tech/web; Value=banks/health/energy/staples/telecom.
CheckmarkValue prop
Weekly growth-vs-value rotation aims to ride leadership, delivering out-of-sample annualized return ~29.8% vs ~23.2% for the S&P 500 (SPY), with a Calmar ~1.05. Captures trend strength with disciplined weekly rebalances; drawdowns can be larger than SPY.

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.
