Concept of the month

While the model posted a modest monthly return of -0.62%, this performance aligns with our priority of capital preservation during periods of uncertainty. With the VIX currently at 16.4, the environment remains relatively calm, yet the model continues to favor protection over aggressive participation. Our all-time CAGR of 28.2% remains intact, reinforcing our commitment to a disciplined, risk-adjusted approach rather than chasing momentum.
