Educational model only — not investment advice. Portfolio betas in the holdings table are weighted to the listed names and weights.

MATE: total-return path multiplies daily returns of RSST. Pre-inception path deducts ~4%/yr wholesale financing on 1.00× incremental notional (gross ~200% vs 100% cash).

NTSD: before March 19, 2026, NTSD is shown as a simulated daily blend (90% SPY + 60% EFA returns, minus ~0.6% annual drag).

IALT: before December 11, 2025, IALT is proxied by 50% FLSP and 50% DBMF daily returns.

HFGM: before August 5, 2025, HFGM is proxied by 1.5× ASGM daily returns, minus ~0.6% annual drag.

HFGM's inception date of 2025-04-15 is limiting the backtest.
