Description

Designed by Bob Elliot of @UnlimitedFnds, this portfolio concept was suspiciously announced on April 1st, 2024. Although this is clearly intended as an April Fools joke, the portfolio serves as a salient benchmark for many of the memetic trends playing out today–namely AI, crypto, and dollar debasement narratives.

The construction is defined as risk-balanced, which I’ve chosen to interpret as inverse volatility weighted with a 1 month lookback window.

The tickers are:

  • QQQ
  • GLD
  • IBIT
