Broad Equities
Balanced Growth & Income · Moderate risk
A large swath of publicly traded equities with strong financials, designed to closely track the S&P 500. The portfolio is not designed to outperform significantly, but rather provide a solution for the rapidly emerging problem of index concentration.
Broad Equities
Value-added index computed from rebalance weights and daily prices. Dashed lines mark rebalances.
Philosophy
Index funds have become dangerously concentrated — the top 10 names dominate returns. We solve this with broad exposure across hundreds of fundamentally sound companies, weighted to reduce single-name risk.
Broad ownership across the S&P 500 universe with a tilt away from the most concentrated mega-caps. Quality screens applied to balance sheet and cash flow.
How it's built
The repeatable process behind Broad Equities.
- 01Universe screen
We start from a defined universe relevant to this strategy and filter for fundamental quality, balance sheet health, and liquidity.
- 02Fundamental scoring
Each candidate is scored on financial strength, competitive position, and exposure to technology, financials, healthcare dynamics that drive this portfolio.
- 03Position sizing
Weights reflect conviction, valuation, and risk contribution — not market cap. Concentration is intentional where it earns its keep.
- 04Ongoing review
We re-underwrite each holding continuously and rebalance when the thesis, valuation, or risk profile materially changes.

Weights reflect the most recent rebalance recorded in our tracker. They drift with market prices between rebalances.
What it looks like in practice
Three plausible paths from here. Real outcomes will sit somewhere along this distribution.
Sector tailwinds and individual catalysts compound over a multi-year window. Concentrated weights drive meaningful relative outperformance.
Quality screens and disciplined sizing deliver returns roughly in line with — to modestly above — the relevant benchmark over a full cycle.
Expect drawdowns consistent with this strategy's moderate risk profile. The portfolio is built to survive and recover, not to avoid declines.
Is this you?
An honest fit check. We'd rather you pick the right strategy than the most exciting one.
- Wants market-like returns without index concentration risk
- Prefers a single, diversified core holding
- Has a long time horizon (5+ years)
- Is uncomfortable with the top 10 stocks driving 35%+ of an index
- You need access to this capital within the next 12–24 months
- You'd panic-sell during a 20%+ drawdown
- You're looking for guaranteed returns or principal protection
Historical context
Index concentration has historically preceded periods of mean reversion. Equal-weighted and quality-tilted strategies have outperformed cap-weighted indices over long horizons, particularly during regime shifts.
* Past performance does not guarantee future results. All investments carry risk of loss.
Common questions
- How is this portfolio different from an ETF?
- Unlike a passive ETF, Broad Equities is actively managed against a specific objective (balanced growth & income). Position sizing reflects conviction, not market cap weighting.
- How often will my positions change?
- We rebalance opportunistically rather than on a fixed calendar. In a typical year you can expect modest turnover; in periods of dislocation, more.
- Can I customize the holdings?
- Core holdings follow the strategy, but we can accommodate restrictions (e.g. tax-lot preferences, ESG exclusions, single-name caps) on request.
- What happens in a market downturn?
- This portfolio carries moderate risk and will participate in market declines. Our discipline is to re-underwrite, not to react — which historically produces better long-term outcomes.
