About
A daily, rules‑based switcher that rides tech momentum in uptrends, flips into UVXY on overheated signals, and rotates among emerging markets, gold miners, bonds or cash when risk rises. Uses leveraged/inverse funds—expect very high volatility.
Every day it checks trend and “heat.” In strong uptrends it rides fast movers (3x tech/semis). If things look too hot short‑term (RSI, a 0–100 heat gauge), it flips into UVXY—a fund that jumps when market volatility spikes—or cash‑like T‑bills. Other sleeves tactically trade emerging markets, gold miners, KMLM (managed‑futures trend), or long bonds in weak markets.
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe ~3.61 vs SPY ~2.15; annualized return ~153% vs ~23.6%; Calmar ~34.6. A regime-switching, multi-sleeve approach with tactical hedges offers superior risk-adjusted upside vs the S&P 500.
