jgrusewski be084b5154 result: hedge-fund reframe -> moat is cheap leverage, not the strategy
Multi-strat with foxhunt's own ideas. (1) Combine uncorrelated premia: ~0.72 Sharpe 2019-26 but
~=60/40, only when streams net-positive (traditional 2010-26 combine +0.51 < equity +0.68 = dilution).
(2) Edge-decay-trust allocation (Page-Hinkley theta, resurrection) genuinely helps: +0.16->+0.27,
correctly down-weights decayed streams. (3) Static risk layer crushed returns (one-way latch);
ADAPTIVE layer (continuous self-recovering DD de-lever + Kelly-floor + z-score corr + EMA vol)
beat it (+0.03->+0.14, maxDD -18.7->-14.5) -- value is drawdown control. (4) THE MOAT = cheap
financing: adaptive 1x Sharpe +0.48 vs 2x +0.14; retail 6-7% margin kills leverage benefit. Funds
lever ~0.7 Sharpe only via prime-brokerage SOFR+1-2%. Deployable best = ~1x adaptive-risk-managed
diversified book (~0.5-0.7 Sharpe, unlevered), scales with capital. Foxhunt ideas improve execution
(validated); engine value = risk-mgmt not alpha. Ceiling ~0.7 ironclad.

"""Deployable nano multi-strat book with 2x leverage + the foxhunt risk-management layer.
Streams (risk-parity, vol-normalized): equity, bond, gold, commodity, trend, crypto.
RISK LAYER (the foxhunt principles applied to the book):
1. vol-target -> scale exposure to TARGET_VOL on trailing realized vol
2. drawdown CB -> de-lever at -15% (1x) / -25% (0.5x) / -35% (0.25x) [CMDP circuit-breaker]
3. corr de-risk -> when avg cross-stream corr spikes (diversification breaking in a crisis), cut leverage
4. Kelly cap -> leverage <= Kelly fraction (mean/var), never over-lever a degrading book
L[t] = min(MAXLEV, L_vol, L_kelly) * dd_mult * corr_mult, applied to yesterday's signal.
Financing cost charged on the borrowed (>1x) portion. Backtest risk-managed-2x vs naive-2x; emit
live target weights for a given capital. ETF mapping for deployment in the verdict.
