My goal was to create a factor tilted total world etf that potentially meets or exceeds VOO in total returns with broader downside protection. The factors are momentum and value. I am tilted US 70/30. I used Gemeni as a sounding board and research assistant.

I have bonds as well, but focussing on my equities allocations here. This allocation will be in my IRA as well as brokerage. In my brokerage I will rebalance by addition to avoid tax events as much as possible. In retirement, by withdrawal from over performers. I've only been studying the markets for a couple of years so I value any feedback.
