Rules-based rotation: ride mega-caps when they lead; otherwise choose defensive or a milder stock/cash mix based on short-term rates (via BIL). Seeks more upside in big-tech booms and less downside when leadership fades.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Step 1: Is QQQ (Nasdaq‑100, tilted to giants) beating QQQE (same stocks, equal‑weighted) over ~1 month? If yes, buy MSFT, AAPL, NVDA plus amplified Nasdaq funds QLD (2x) and TQQQ (3x).<br>If not, check BIL’s 1‑yr return. If ≥1.75% (rates high), go defensive: SGOL (gold), BIL (T‑bills), TIP (inflation‑linked Treasuries), USDU (long USD). Otherwise, go mild risk: SCHD (dividends), VOO (S&P 500), and BIL.
Rules-based rotation: ride mega-caps when they lead; otherwise choose defensive or a milder stock/cash mix based on short-term rates (via BIL). Seeks more upside in big-tech booms and less downside when leadership fades.
Out-of-sample edge: ~40.9% annualized return vs 21.0% SPY; Sharpe ~1.44 vs ~1.31; Calmar ~2.26; max drawdown ~18.1% (vs 18.8%). Captures mega-cap leadership with leverage, plus a rate-regime filter to curb risk.
Uses the top heavy QQQ against its equal split version to determine the movement of mega caps. Then uses BIL as a semi-canary to determine rates. Ideally you catch more upside of mega cap when they are rolling and less downside when they aren't. Should be all new logic. Not optimized at all. Love you guys.
