I heard somewhere that 50% TMF/50% TQQQ with quarterly rebalancing is a good strategy.
I would like your comments regarding:
1. Do you agree that TMF/TQQQ is a good strategy?
2. Forgive my ignorance: Does rebalancing mean adjusting the number of shares quarterly so that the value of TMF and TQQQ each amount to 50% value for this investment?
3. I realize that TMF and TQQQ are not correlated, but is it not possible for TMF to only go up 4% while TQQQ goes down 22%?
Also, what is your opinion of investing in ARK funds short term or long term?
Thank you for your input (pros and cons). Ron

I figured this out years ago, I’ve discussed it with Xarlor.
I forget the proportion either 1-1 or 2-1. Trend has been good for a decade but no guarantees.

I am a fan of ARK funds. I look at their holdings and Daily buy / sells. I keep buying more each week for long hold.

@davesaint86, I really appreciate your efforts in back testing these different models. I cannot seem to get the links to work. Can I assume that the top 4 monthly Adaptive Allocation is the best one? If so, please post the average annual returns and the largest drawdown for this allocation. Thanks again.
