How this model works

Simple process. Same rules every cycle.

  1. 01

    Rank the full S&P 500 universe

    Each review starts with the full index and scores trend strength with one consistent rule set.

  2. 02

    Keep the strongest leaders

    The model leans into stocks with durable momentum while weaker names naturally rotate out.

  3. 03

    Rebalance on a fixed monthly cycle

    Changes happen on schedule. No ad-hoc switches based on daily noise.
