Permanent Portfolio (Gave) Tactical Asset Allocation Strategy

Charles Gave's dynamic variant of Harry Browne's Permanent Portfolio, introduced in his 2024 book 'Cessez de vous faire avoir'. The equity sleeve is fixed at 1/3 SPY. The remaining 2/3 are split between an inflation hedge (GLD) and a deflation hedge (IEF) based on a 7-year moving-average regime signal computed on the GLD/IEF ratio. When gold is outperforming bonds (ratio above its 7Y MA) the portfolio leans into GLD; otherwise it leans into IEF. A cash buffer (BIL) fills the final third of the portfolio.
