The 🐿️’s weekly ‘Start the Week’ note hits inboxes at 7.30am EST on Monday mornings every week. In it, we review both BUSHY™ (our beta portfolio) and the Acorn book of global multi-asset thematic positions.

BUSHY™, the 🐿️’s beta portfolio pulled back 135bps last week - the energy book and CTA allocation responsible for most of the damage.

BUSHY™ is benchmarked against Vanguard’s 2035 Target Date Mutual Fund (VTTHX - the turquoise line in the chart below). Full report below the paywall.

A quick reminder that the BUSHY™ portfolio is investable via a single click on the Plutus platform (as will the ‘20-for-20’ when launched) - full details in my July launch note linked below or the website via the button underneath.
