How Does Stars Stack Up Against the Best ETFs?
The Stars model has consistently delivered phenomenal performance—but how does it compare to the top-performing ETFs in the market?
📊 Short-Term vs. Long-Term Gains
Over the past year, the best version of Stars (40/60) ranked as the 10th best ETF—with those outperforming it being highly concentrated in specific sectors.
However, over five years, Stars outperformed the best ETF by 21 percentage points.
Over 10 years, Stars beat the best ETF by 10 percentage points.
These results may seem unbelievable—so how does Stars achieve them?
🚀 The Strategy Behind Stars
Stars is built on a simple yet powerful foundation: SPY + TQQQ, with strategic rebalancing.
🔹 SPY: 85% of investors can’t beat it—it’s the gold standard.
🔹 TQQQ: The best triple-leveraged ETF over the past 10 years.
🔹 Rebalancing Strategy:
✔️ In bull markets, Stars captures profits by selling TQQQ.
✔️ In downturns, Stars buys more TQQQ—at the bottom, it holds 4x more TQQQ shares than at the top.
💡 Can Stars Continue to Outperform?
Yes—but with some caveats:
✔️ In volatile markets, Stars is expected to maintain its strong performance.
✔️ In non-volatile markets, returns will be lower, but Stars will still outperform SPY by about 10 percentage points.
The future for Stars is extremely bright—and the numbers prove it.
