LGH seeks to outperform the Solactive U.S. Large Cap Index using a proprietary methodology. LGH alternates exposure between 100% exposure to US large-cap stocks, 100% to 1-3 month Treasury bills, or a 50/50 combination of both. Based on the broad trend of the equity market, a quantitative investment model dictates the level of equity and T-bill exposure.
