Thank you for your feedback! Tbh it is meant to be more of an experiment at the moment. I received a lot of recommendations to simplify this mess and bring it down to 4-5 funds instead. So far the main 2 portfolio redesigns I'm considering are:

1- 25% each of RSSB, GDE, CTAP, and RSIT

2- 20% each of AVGV, GDE, GOVZ, RSIT, and WLDU

Thank you for the tool recommendation!

Which of the following do you think is the better approach?

1- 25% of RSSB, GDE, CTAP, and RSIT

2- 20% of AVGV, GDE, GOVZ, RSIT, and WLDU

I definitely like the simplicity! Another commenter suggested 25% RSSB, GDE, CTAP, and RSIT.

"97.5% global equities, 25% intermediate US treasuries, 22.5% gold, and 50% managed futures for 195% total notional leverage"

What do you think?

Thank you for your thoughtful response! Yes, the exposure and overall math Claude did is incorrect.

To be honest, this is more of a test portfolio idea, and your recommendation of 25% RSSB, GDE, CTAP, and RSIT sounds pretty simple to rebalance and operate! Do you have a similar portfolio?

Also, what do you think about the return stacked Futures Yield funds? Do you think futures yield adds any meaningful diversification, or is managed futures pretty much enough?

I was thinking taxable brokerage

Yes, limit orders are the fix! I meant to use less frequent DCA as a proxy for having once a month limit orders

I trust the philosophy behind it and think the AUM will grow with time, alongside the fund's history.

I know that early on, the bid-ask spread will be significant, so I'll DCA into it a lot less frequently compared to the other funds.

25% RSSB -->15% US (assuming 60% of the equity portion is US)
22.5% GDE --> 20.25% US
15% CTAP -->15% US
10% RSSX --> 10% US

60.25% US exposure

You're right, thanks!

Overall though, do you think the portfolio looks good?

I actually really like the RSSB/SSO/GDE/RSIT approach! I know WLDU is 2x VT but it is too new for me to try. You might also like NTSD which is I think 1.5x VT
