About
A daily-rebalanced, single-stock momentum bet on Gen IV nuclear energy names (OKLO, SMR, LEU, NEE). It picks the top performer over the last 20 trading days and holds 100% in that stock, with NuScale NM’s NRC-approved design noted as a guiding filter.
- Universe: four stock-like tickers tied to Gen IV nuclear energy: OKLO, SMR, LEU, NEE. A daily check is done.
- Momentum measure: for each ticker, look at its price changes over the last 20 trading days and compute the average daily return. This is a simple way to see which stock has been rising on average recently.
- Pick the leader: the ticker with the highest 20-day average return is chosen.
- Allocation: invest all available cash into that single winner (100% to the top ticker).
- Rebalance daily: at the end of each trading day, recompute, and if another ticker is the top, sell the current holding and buy the new winner. If the top remains the same, you simply stay invested.
- Special note: there’s a line highlighting NuScale (SMR) as having NRC-approved Gen IV design, which functions as a quality filter but doesn’t override the momentum rule. The aim is to ride short-term strength in a niche nuclear space, not to diversify.
- Risks: highly concentrated exposure, reliance on a single stock, potential liquidity issues with smaller names, and policy/regulatory risk impacting nuclear tech. This is a speculative bet rather than a broad market strategy.
Out-of-sample: ~40.6% annualized return vs SPY ~18.5% from a Gen IV nuclear momentum bet. High-conviction 100% winner exposure offers upside but ~65% max drawdown—suits risk-tolerant investors seeking niche alpha.
