Compounding Wealth by Pressley Altman

This strategy is a defensive approach that seeks to beat the market by avoiding massive crashes while aggressively buying the bottoms of panics. You normally hold a slightly leveraged stock portfolio (1.2x) to outpace the S&P 500 during bull markets, but move 80% of your capital to the safety of SGOV the moment long-term price trends break. When extreme fear peaks—signaled by a high VIX and an oversold RSI—you use a small portion of that sidelined cash to buy high-leverage "synthetic" stock (deep in-the-money LEAPS), essentially using the market's own panic as a springboard to multiply your gains during the recovery.
