Institutional Defensive Alpha
The Navellier Defensive Alpha Portfolio is designed for profit-minded investors seeking an investment strategy that has the ability to outperform the S&P 500.
The Defensive Alpha Portfolio utilizes a proprietary algorithmic version of the Fisher Black Model. The strategy does not predict anything nor resort to derivatives, but rather is intended to react to changing market conditions.
When the S&P 500 Index goes up, the Defensive Alpha Portfolio’s equity position can increase in high Alpha growth stocks, up to 20 stocks designed to outperform the S&P 500. When the S&P 500 Index goes down, the Defensive Alpha Portfolio can trim the portfolio to fewer than 15, 10, or 5 stocks or even at times placing the whole portfolio into cash to be reinvested again at the right time.
Background
The portfolio was developed over six years ago and invests in up to 20 high Alpha stocks designed to outperform the S&P 500. Despite some wild stock market gyrations the last 6+ years, the portfolio has strived to have smooth and steady returns.
