About this strategy

Dynamic and defensive, the strategy mainly holds leveraged equity funds (TQQQ, UPRO) when short-term Treasury returns are positive but the Nasdaq has not yet gained 3% in a year. If the Nasdaq has already risen, it switches to a short-term Treasury (BIL) or a short-QQQ (SQQQ) to protect against a downturn, keeping risk low when Treasury performance is weak.
