A two-sleeve, rules-based mix. In uptrends it favors stocks (incl. some 2x S&P). In stress it rotates to defensive plays (market‑neutral, short junk bonds, gold, energy), with a “tech oversold” rule that can temporarily shift heavily into tech.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Two equal sleeves decide.<br>Half A: If SCHD (dividend stocks) beats SJB (short junk bonds) over ~21 days, split RSP (equal‑weight S&P 500) and SCHD. Else, if QQQ’s RSI (oversold gauge; <30) is low, buy XLK (tech); otherwise split BTAL (defensive) and SJB.<br>Half B: If SPY’s 8‑day > 200‑day avg (uptrend), split SPLV (low‑vol) and SSO (2x S&P). Else, if tech is oversold buy XLK; otherwise split UGL (2x gold) and XLE (energy).
A two-sleeve, rules-based mix. In uptrends it favors stocks (incl. some 2x S&P). In stress it rotates to defensive plays (market‑neutral, short junk bonds, gold, energy), with a “tech oversold” rule that can temporarily shift heavily into tech.
Out-of-sample edge: ~17.9% annual return with Calmar ~1.41 and Sharpe ~1.22, while max drawdown is 12.7% vs SPY’s 18.8% and beta is lower (~0.67). Better risk control and diversification with solid upside, including tech oversold plays.
