Total Return History
Cumulative return since activation — the same metric as the Total Return card above. A rising line means recovery over time; it does not mean today's return is positive.
Hover a date for cumulative and that day's return. For today's move, see Today's Return in the summary.
Historical Performance
Simulated. 2.3-year daily MA100 → SHY trend filter at stated weights; next-open fills; paper one-way costs (15 bps) on entries/exits (1 holdings, as of 2026-11-06). Not a live track record — paper and house-account blotters are the forward book.
Passes income dual gate (block P5 Sharpe ≥ 0.5) but not growth gate (≥ 0.9). Suitable for defensive sizing; not promoted for aggressive autopilot.

AI Rationale
Conservative bond sleeve (BND, TLT) with VTI/SCHD equity split and GLD diversifier. Max-Sharpe weights, MA100 trend filter, daily rebalance. Honesty:gate Sep 21 2026: next-open + 15 bps Sharpe 1.76, P5 0.98 — income-validated, growth miss.
Bull Case
Bond ballast may cushion equity drawdowns while SCHD adds dividend-oriented equity exposure.
Bear Case
Rising rates can pressure bond and dividend holdings simultaneously. Less yield than pure equity dividend sleeve.
Behavior During Downturns
Bond sleeve and MA100 trend filter designed to limit drawdowns relative to equity-only dividend models.
Holdings
