Important: this is a simulated strategy

This is a simulated paper portfolio. No real money is invested and no trades are executed. All holdings, orders, and values are hypothetical and for educational illustration only. Hypothetical and past performance do not indicate or guarantee future results. Figures do not include fees, taxes, commissions, or slippage; real-world results would be lower. This is general, impersonal information, not investment advice, not a recommendation, and not an offer or solicitation to buy or sell any security; it creates no advisory relationship.

How this strategy is run

A fixed, published rule replayed over real daily prices — the order history below is reproducible, not hand-picked.

  • Style: 60% stocks / 40% bonds, rebalanced to fixed weights.
  • Contributions: a simulated $250.00 every 14 days, deployed into the most underweight assets.
  • Rebalancing: toward target weights about every 90 days, or sooner past a 5 pp drift.
  • Invested so far: $10,000.00 across 3 ledger entries.

Why each holding, and its risk

VOO · US stocks · 58.8%

Why this holding: The 60% equity sleeve — broad US large-cap for long-term growth.

Risk: Medium — diversified US equities; falls in broad market downturns.

BND BND · Bonds · 39.2%

Why this holding: The 40% bond sleeve — broad investment-grade bonds that cushion equity drawdowns.

Risk: Low-medium — interest-rate sensitive, but far steadier than stocks.
