The foundation of Demeter Tactical Investments’ strategy was established through empirical research rooted in the Efficient Market Hypothesis advanced by Nobel Laureate Eugene Fama. Building upon Fama’s findings that price incorporates all available market information, Jeffrey A. Sexton, the firm’s Founder and Chief Investment Officer, began actively exercising the strategy and algorithms in 2012.
His objective was to create a fully systematic, price-driven framework capable of determining whether the market’s short-term momentum favored equity exposure or defensive positioning in Treasuries. Over the past decade, this model has evolved through rigorous testing, live performance validation, and continuous refinement—adapting to changing volatility regimes while maintaining its core principle: price leads fundamentals.
The result is a disciplined, adaptive system designed to capture the compounding benefits of daily market precision.
