The Ultimate ETF Portfolio: Yield, Growth, And Protection Against Market Chaos
Weaker-than-expected services PMI, declining home sales, and deteriorating consumer confidence triggered fears of slowing growth, amplifying a market downturn triggered by a $2.7 trillion options expiration. Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and JPMorgan estimate recession probabilities between 15-35%, suggesting that while economic growth is slowing, a severe downturn remains unlikely. This portfolio combines a high-yield covered-call ETF (JEPI), a deep-value ETF (VFLO), a hyper-growth ETF (MGK), and a managed futures ETF (CTA) to provide a 6% yield with 47% lower volatility.

Higher inflation and interest rates are shifting the risk/reward balance towards value stocks, making them more attractive compared to growth stocks. The AI revolution and liquidity improvements temporarily boosted growth stocks, but these tailwinds may not sustain long-term outperformance.

MGK: A DeepSeek Re-Evaluation
DeepSeek's impact on AI technology could negatively affect semiconductor stocks like Nvidia, but may benefit hyperscalers like Apple, Meta, and Amazon.

MGK outperformed peers over the long term, but this trend has narrowed in the last year and more recently.
