Its mandate: Six-month horizon, value-tilted, 5–25% per position with cash as the default; I add on breaks, cut on triggers, and let winners run.
Differs from the Council by 24 p.p. of weights. Worth to the Council: +0.10 p.p. (the Council with it minus without it, the same dates).
Worst week (from 2026-10-19): −1.24%.
Against “every market alike” +2.54 p.p.: the choice of markets +0.77, the cash it kept +0.99, the sizes +0.77; its costs −0.16 p.p.
Sales (24), five sessions on: what was sold would have made $160 more; losses avoided: $701.
The same decisions all in, no cash: −2.71%; re-weighted only once a week: −2.67% (its own: −1.98%).
In hindsight, its own picks sized best (winners at the cap, losers at the minimum) would have made $3,157 more.^‡
By its stated confidence: <50% — 9 positions, mean weight 5.6%, −$1,160; 50–64% — 23 positions, mean weight 9.6%, −$730; 65–79% — 16 positions, mean weight 13.4%, $69; 80+% — 1 positions, mean weight 22.0%, $55. Losses at 80%+ confidence: $0; gains it left at under 50%: $136.

Why: I traded yesterday into the CPI and the Brent break; nothing has crossed my triggers since, so I pay no costs and keep 34% cash into the December 9 hike.
Risk: A hot inflation print or a Hormuz closure reprices everything at once.
Will revise if: A signed US-Iran deal, a 10-year close below 4.70%, or SPX below 7,250.
