The S&P 500 has doubled in the last five years, raising concerns about a potential market top and the need for portfolio hedging. Traditional bonds have struggled due to rising interest rates; alternatives may offer better downside protection. Diversifying with alternatives, like CTA's managed futures or BTAL's market hedge, can reduce portfolio volatility and enhance risk-adjusted returns without significantly cutting equity exposure.

Diversification across asset classes mitigates risks and enhances portfolio resilience - the real "free lunch". Due to low expected correlations, the Simplify Managed Futures Strategy ETF can increase the Sharpe ratio of a portfolio or soften the blow of a drawdown during times of distress. I propose an allocation that could produce 11% annual returns over the next decade or more, at volatility and drawdowns that could be even lower than the stock market's.

Allocating to alternative investments like commodities can hedge against inflation and fiat currency volatility, reducing portfolio risk. The Simplify Managed Futures Strategy ETF offers a long-short futures strategy with a low correlation to equities, outperforming passive commodity funds. CTA's active management and trend-focused models provide strong risk-adjusted returns. Since its inception, it has been among the few to have positive returns and a low-to-negative equity correlation.
