In short: Half buy-and-hold global allocation, half trend — "those two come together and form sort of the perfect all-in allocation for me." Cambria's largest allocation ETF and, in his words, "what I do with most of my money."
TRTY is a one-ticket portfolio that blends two opposite philosophies in equal halves. One half is a plain buy-and-hold global allocation across stocks, bonds and real assets — you own everything and sit still. The other half is trend following: it only holds what is currently going up, and when markets roll over it sells and can sit almost entirely in cash and bonds. The idea is that the buy-and-hold half keeps you invested through the years when trend gets whipsawed, and the trend half gets you out of the way of a genuine bear market.
The disclosure that carries the most weight here isn't a performance number: it's Cambria's largest allocation fund, and Faber says plainly that TRTY is "what I do with most of my money." Whether that reassures you or simply tells you the manager is his own biggest customer is the reader's call — but he did put it on the record.
35:23A lot of people are not trend following investors or don't use that allocation. To me, those two come together and form sort of the perfect all-in allocation for me, which is called Trinity, TRTY, which I think is our largest allocation ETF, and it's what I do with most of my money.
