Max DD is the worst peak-to-trough decline on month-end prices, the standard TAA convention. On Full History each strategy is measured over its own available history, so the Years column tells you how long each drawdown window is (a 100-year record and a 15-year one are not directly comparable). The optional Max DD (Weekly) column (under Show all columns) samples the NAV weekly for query speed, so it can differ from the month-end figure.

About this leaderboard

This leaderboard ranks tactical and fixed asset allocation strategies by their trailing returns over multiple time horizons. All performance data comes from rigorous backtests using actual ETF prices and proxy chains extending back decades, with our deepest histories reaching the 1920s.

Trailing returns (1M, 3M, YTD, 1Y) show recent cumulative performance. Multi-year returns (3Y, 5Y) are annualized. CAGR represents the compound annual growth rate over the selected leaderboard window. For a custom start year, the window begins on Jan 1 of that year or at the strategy's later inception; the Years column shows the actual coverage used for each row.

Risk metrics include maximum drawdown (worst peak-to-trough decline), Sharpe ratio (risk-adjusted return), Sortino ratio (downside-adjusted return), and annualized volatility.

Strategy categories include momentum, trend-following, risk parity, mean reversion, and static/fixed allocations from respected authors like Keller, Dalio, Bernstein, Ferri, and others.

Past performance is not indicative of future results. All returns shown are backtested using historical data and may not reflect actual trading results. Backtests are subject to look-ahead bias, survivorship bias, and other limitations. This is not financial advice. Always do your own research before investing.
