How it works

A weekly rotation strategy that favors a commodities momentum sleeve when broad commodity trend is strong, and otherwise switches between equity and risk-managed sleeves based on short-term stress gates.

Objective
Capture commodity uptrends when present, and otherwise stay invested through a defensive or risk-parity path that reacts to short-term market stress.
Risk character
Can include leveraged equity and volatility products, which amplify both gains and losses and may experience compounding decay in choppy markets. Path can differ sharply from a static equity or cash benchmark.
