S&P Top 10 Strategy
Systematic Trading for the Ten Largest US Companies

- Ten positions, managed name by name
- Concentrated large-cap exposure
- Trades tokenized equities (xStocks)
- Runs in your own Kraken and Cryptohopper accounts

Requires xStocks access and enough capital to hold multiple positions.
Rationale
The Index Is Already Concentrated
A cap-weighted S&P 500 position is dominated by its largest holdings. Those companies drive most of the index return and most of its drawdown. Holding the index means accepting that concentration without managing it.
This strategy takes the concentration deliberately and manages each name on its own signal. One company weakening does not force the whole basket out.
Own the drivers of index return directly.
Manage each position on its own model signal.
Reduce exposure name by name, not all at once.
Rebalance by rule as leadership rotates.
Accept higher volatility with an explicit risk process.
Concentration Risk
Ten positions is a concentrated portfolio. Expect larger swings than a broad index strategy. This strategy suits investors who understand and accept single-name risk.
