Darwin’s June Playbook: Cautious, Calculated, and Ready

In this month’s commentary, we unpack Darwin’s latest allocation adjustments amid a persistently complex macro backdrop. While changes are subtle, they’re strategic—crypto exposure has been dialed back to realign with target risk levels after strong gains, while bond and equity allocations have nudged upward to reflect a cautiously opportunistic stance. Defensive assets like gold and cash remain core, signaling ongoing stagflation concerns from our AI economist.

We also dive into the intriguing “TACO trade”—a tongue-in-cheek market pattern described as “Trump Always Chickens Out.” This segment explores how Darwin’s risk-aware model navigated May’s politically charged rally, prioritizing discipline over FOMO.

  Introduction Investing is no longer just about picking the right stocks or ETFs. Today, it’s about building a resilient portfolio that adapts, evolves, and thrives—just like a championship sports team. Imagine your portfolio as a lineup of players, each competing for their spot. The stars get more time on the field, while the underperformers hit the bench.
