About this strategy

A dynamic, risk-aware strategy keeps a core of dividend-focused equity (SCHD) while it pivots between leveraged tech (TECL), energy (ERX), utilities (UTSL) and a short-S&P (SPXU) when market volatility rises or the VIX exceeds 70. It protects itself by shifting into long-term Treasury (TMF) or short-Treasury (TMV) and VIX-short (UVXY) when Treasury returns turn negative or the 21-day TLT RSI falls below 30, and it always holds a small bond buffer (BIL).
