Carl Crunch

The Credit Crisis Buyer

💳 Reversal 📅 96 years old (Born 1930)

"Credit stress is the institutional market's fire alarm. When spreads blow out, funds are forced to sell — not because the companies are bad, but because risk models demand it. I buy what institutions are forced to sell."

A credit market savant who watches the BAMLH0A0HYM2 index like a hawk. When high-yield credit spreads blow past the 75th percentile, the forced selling begins. Funds deleverage, quality stocks get dragged down, and 3 consecutive red days create the perfect entry.

📖 Understanding Score & Momentum columns
📊 Score — Lifetime Quality Score
Measures how well this strategy+symbol combination has performed across the entire simulation history. Based on return, win rate, drawdown control, profit factor, and trade count. Higher is better.
75+ Elite   60+ Good   40+ Fair   <40 Weak
⚡ Mom — 30-Day Momentum Score
Measures performance over the last 30 days only. Same quality model but calibrated for short-term activity. Captures recent regime shifts that the lifetime score may miss.
75+ Hot   60+ Active   40+ Moderate   <40 Quiet
Spread Indicators — Comparing Mom vs Score reveals regime sensitivity:
🔥 Heating Up — Mom is 20+ points above Score. This symbol is performing significantly better recently than its lifetime average. Could indicate a favorable regime shift.
🧊 Cooling Off — Mom is 20+ points below Score. This symbol is underperforming recently despite a strong lifetime track record. Could indicate an unfavorable regime shift.
No icon = Steady — Scores within ±20 points. Consistent performance.
