The Reality Check

Traditional Portfolio Management is Broken

If you've lived through 2008 or 2020, you know "just stay the course" isn't a strategy—it's a hope. Traditional 60/40 portfolios are failing to adapt to a new era of inflation and volatility.

"A 30-40% drawdown doesn't just hurt returns—it forces difficult decisions at the worst possible time."

Static 60/40 is Dead

Bonds no longer provide the safety hedge they once did. In inflationary regimes, stocks and bonds can fall together.

"Time in the Market" Fallacy

Recovering from a 50% loss requires a 100% gain. That can take a decade of your retirement.

What You Actually Need:
Systematic Risk Management

  • Defensive positioning when warranted
  • Rules-based, not emotion-based
  • Adaptation to changing regimes
  • Systematic quantitative frameworks
The Methodology

A Systematic Framework for Changing Market Regimes

This isn't market timing based on hunches. It's systematic decision-making based on measurable economic indicators.

01

Monitor Macro

We track inflation trends, economic growth, and monetary policy globally.

02

Identify Regime

We determine the current economic environment: Inflation, Deflation, Growth, or Stagflation.

03

Adjust Position

Systematic rules determine allocation shifts—not hunches or emotions.

04

Manage Risk

Defensive when needed, growth-oriented when favorable.

Built on Institutional Research Frameworks

Our approach uses systematic quantitative frameworks for tactical asset allocation. We analyze macro economic regimes, inflation trends, monetary policy, and market valuations to make rules-based portfolio decisions. Designed for investors with $500K+ in assets.

Is This Approach Right for You?

Our systematic tactical allocation approach isn't for everyone.

You're a Good Fit If...

  • You have $500K+ in investable assets
  • You've lived through market crashes and want downside protection
  • You value systematic processes over 'trust me' relationships
  • You want to understand the rationale behind portfolio changes
  • You're skeptical that 'stay the course' is the only answer

You're NOT a Good Fit If...

  • You believe markets are perfectly efficient and can't be navigated
  • You prefer hands-off set-it-and-forget-it investing
  • You need guarantees or promises about returns
  • You're comfortable with 30-40% drawdowns
  • You want comprehensive financial planning (we focus on investment management)

Important Risk Disclosure: Tactical allocation strategies do not guarantee profit or protection against loss. All investments are subject to market risk, including the possible loss of principal.

The Stewardship

Built on Systems,
Not Speculation.

Josh founded Caldric Capital to bring systematic tactical asset allocation to Mississippi families who deserve better than generic portfolios.

"Too many investors are told to 'stay the course' when markets turn. I'm building this firm because systematic risk management is a viable, superior alternative to passive acceptance of volatility."

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our systematic tactical allocation approach and how we protect capital.

What is tactical asset allocation?

It's a dynamic approach that adjusts your portfolio based on changing market conditions. Unlike "buy-and-hold" which stays static, we systematically shift between offensive (growth) and defensive (preservation) positioning based on economic regimes.

How is this different from robo-advisors?

Robo-advisors typically use static rebalancing to maintain a fixed allocation. We actively manage risk by adapting to the economic cycle. Think of robo-advisors as cruise control, while we provide adaptive navigation that adjusts to the road conditions ahead.

What is "regime identification"?

It's our process of determining the current economic environment (e.g., Inflation vs. Deflation, Growth vs. Slowdown). Different assets perform best in different regimes. By identifying the regime, we position your portfolio to capture upside or protect capital accordingly.

Are you a fiduciary?

Yes. Once registered, we will operate under a strict fiduciary standard, legally obligated to act in your best interests at all times. We are fee-only, meaning we don't accept commissions or hidden incentives.
