About
A weekly switcher: if mega-cap tech is leading (QQQ beating equal-weight QQQE), own the strongest of Apple/Nvidia/Netflix; otherwise, own the steadier of Eli Lilly/Moderna. Single-stock, momentum when risk-on, lower-vol healthcare when risk-off.
Each week:
1) Compare the last 20 trading days’ average return of QQQ (mega-cap tech heavy) vs QQQE (equal-weighted Nasdaq-100).
2) If QQQ is stronger, buy the single strongest of Apple, Nvidia, or Netflix by a 40‑day RSI (a score of recent upward pressure).
3) Otherwise, buy the calmer of Eli Lilly or Moderna using 10‑day volatility (lower wins).
Hold for a week, then repeat.
Out-of-sample, this strategy targets ~52.8% annualized return with Sharpe ~1.32 and Calmar ~1.40, far above SPY's ~21.5% annualized return. It offers strong upside with disciplined risk—though max drawdown (~37.7%) is higher than SPY's (~18.8%).
