The Vireo Global Macro Allocation Portfolio (GMAP) is for defensive minded investors seeking an investment strategy that has the ability to outperform in both advancing and declining markets.

To achieve this objective, GMAP uses a diverse list of exchange traded funds (ETFs) and a mirror image list of Inverse ETFs (an ETF that profits from a decline in the value of the underlying index). The portfolio is designed to dampen volatility while attempting to provide above average long-term results in all types of markets.

GMAP is available as a fully diversified portfolio with 9-12 positions or a more aggressive, concentrated portfolio with 5-6 positions.
