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.

"""Multi-strat book v2 — upgraded with foxhunt risk-stack IDEAS (not crude reimplementation):
- PER-STREAM EDGE-DECAY TRUST (Page-Hinkley-style decay detection -> continuous theta in [0,1])
that down-weights a stream whose premium is degrading and re-weights it when it recovers
(resurrection discipline) -> ADAPTIVE allocation vs static risk-parity.
[pearl_edge_decay_detection_is_a_missing_abstraction_layer + dead_signal_resurrection_discipline]
- KELLY-fraction leverage cap [pearl_position_sizing_missing_adaptation_layer]
- CMDP drawdown circuit-breaker [pearl_cmdp_consec_loss_counter]
- correlation-spike de-risk (diversification breaks in crises)
Compares static-risk-parity vs edge-decay-adaptive, both risk-managed 2x. Does the foxhunt idea help?
