How does Vertical resize and rebalance my portfolio?

Vertical uses advanced, algorithm-driven models to resize and rebalance your portfolio based on your selected risk tolerance and investment goals. Our algorithms incorporate techniques inspired by some of the best risk managers on Wall Street, leveraging methods like:

- Mean-Variance Optimization (MVO): Balancing expected returns against portfolio risk to achieve an optimal allocation.
- Monte Carlo Simulations: Running thousands of possible market scenarios to determine the best portfolio adjustments under varying conditions.
- Risk Parity Models: Ensuring that risk is distributed evenly across all positions in your portfolio, regardless of market volatility.
- Factor-Based Analysis: Evaluating individual stock characteristics (like momentum or value) to weigh positions effectively.

By analyzing your portfolio and current market data in real-time, Vertical adjusts position sizes dynamically, ensuring your investments remain balanced, optimized, and aligned with your financial strategy.
