About this strategy

Dynamic and defensive, the strategy mainly holds a leveraged innovation fund (TARK) when short-term bond momentum is weak, but switches to a short-term Treasury (BIL) or a short S&P 500 (SARK) when bond strength rises or risk-off signals appear. It protects itself by moving into cash-like bonds or inverse equity exposure whenever bond RSI outpaces high-beta equity RSI or when recent returns fall sharply, keeping the portfolio aligned with market sentiment.
