How it works
A monthly stock-rotation strategy that ranks Nasdaq-100 constituents by momentum and concentrates into the strongest names in the index universe.
Risk character
Concentrated single-stock equity risk within a growth-heavy universe. Individual names can gap and underperform the index; drawdowns may exceed those of a diversified ETF benchmark during sharp rotations.
