Just put together a visualization of each sector's relative performance against the S&P 500 over the past 5 years.

As a trader, keeping an eye on sector rotation can help you spot market shifts and trends before the rest of the market.

Sharing my risk-adjusted returns YTD. Here are the takeaways:

📈 Outperforming S&P 500 by ~11%
🧠 Low drawdown
⚖️ High risk-adjusted return
🔍 Very little correlation to S&P 500 (strategy is hunting idiosyncratic alpha, not riding the market beta wave)

It's not so much DeepSeek R1 taking down the o1 models that I find so beautiful — it's that DeepSeeks research effectively demonstrates how *little* traditional LLMs actually know. They are amazing — but glorified — pattern generators. There is no actual "learning" going on.
