Cycle Hunting – A Cycle-Aware Strategy for Dynamic Capital Allocation

Cycle Hunting is a sophisticated investment guide and tactical framework for mastering the art of dynamic capital allocation through market cycles. It uncovers the structural rhythms and turning points that traditional wealth managers and advisors often overlook—giving disciplined investors a critical edge in timing, positioning, and risk management across economic expansions and contractions.

Designed for experienced investors who understand that markets are not static but operate in recurring phases, Cycle Hunting teaches you how to decode cycle signals—from macroeconomic indicators to market breadth and sentiment—and use them to adjust your portfolio proactively. This strategy balances offense and defense, enabling you to capitalize on growth opportunities during upcycles while preserving capital and minimizing drawdowns during downturns.

Whether you’re a seasoned wealth builder aiming to enhance portfolio resiliency, a tactical allocator seeking to outperform through active management, or an ambitious investor ready to move beyond buy-and-hold dogma, Cycle Hunting equips you with a cycle-aware playbook grounded in quantitative analysis and real-world market behavior.

This is not a mechanical timing guide or speculative momentum chase. It’s a disciplined, data-driven system forged from institutional investment principles and refined through Mallard Avenue’s Private Investment Club’s rigorous testing since 2020. Cycle Hunting distills those insights into actionable strategies you can implement immediately.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:

• Identify and interpret key economic, technical, and sentiment indicators that define distinct market cycle phases.
• Construct and dynamically adjust a diversified portfolio that tactically shifts exposure across sectors, asset classes, and risk profiles in response to cycle signals.
• Apply quantitative and qualitative methods to avoid late-cycle traps, sector rotations, and liquidity shocks—maximizing returns while minimizing volatility.
• Integrate risk management techniques like position sizing, hedging, and drawdown controls tailored specifically for cycle-aware investing.
• Develop a repeatable process to anticipate inflection points, enhance timing precision, and maintain psychological discipline amid market noise.

Cycle Hunting is more than just a timing tool—it’s a philosophy and a process for adapting your capital allocation to the ever-changing market environment. It empowers you to think like a seasoned portfolio manager and execute like a tactical allocator, leveraging cycles for asymmetric, long-term wealth creation.

We are not market timers chasing headlines. We are serious investors harnessing data, discipline, and adaptive strategies to outperform traditional static portfolios. Whether managing tens of thousands or millions, this guide gives you the framework to navigate cycles with confidence and build durable wealth through all market phases.

“Markets are rhythmic, not random. The winners aren’t those who guess right once—they’re those who master the cycle.”
