About

Owns the 25 companies with the most U.S. patent approvals (2010–2017), equal-weighted and rebalanced quarterly. A simple innovation tilt: mostly chips/electronics with some industrial, consumer, and healthcare giants.
NutHow it works
It bets that big inventors win. It looks at U.S. patent approvals from 2010–2017, ranks companies each year, averages those ranks to smooth rule changes, and picks the top 25. Your money is split equally across them and reset every 3 months. Expect many chip and electronics names (Apple, Microsoft, IBM, TSMC, Qualcomm), plus a few industrial, consumer, and healthcare leaders.
CheckmarkValue prop
24.8% annualized vs 23.6% S&P, from a patent-heavy tech lineup. Equal-weight, quarterly rebalances curb mega-cap bias and deliver solid risk-adjusted performance (Calmar > 1), though drawdowns can be larger and Sharpe may lag 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.
