How we Operate
None of this is investment advice. We are not a formal fund open to the outside world. This is a rigorous academic exercise with only our own real money at stake. We operate publicly to ensure self-discipline and garner public feedback on our methods, so we can continue improving. We use real money to ensure there is skin in the game. The approach is as follows:
- Curate an index and publish the index. This is a relative return index, where the benchmark is the S&P 500 Equal Weight Index (because we do not want to be skewed by Mag7 technology stocks currently dominating the standard S&P 500).
- Iterate on the index based on learnings and feedback. It might seem like an actively-managed index at first, but the goal is for it to be quantitative and low-turnover eventually.
- Use real money to ensure personal alignment. We are using a sleeve on our family portfolio. We use Double to backtest and maintain our portfolio.
