What this transaction means for investors

J Hagan Capital's latest moves suggest an interesting strategy shift: The firm sold $4.8 million of VFLO, a fund holding 50 value stocks with strong free cash flow like Merck and Chevron, and poured $12.2 million into THIR, a tactical fund that launched in September 2024. THIR is now the firm’s fourth-largest holding at 7% of assets, while VFLO represents 1.25%.

THIR doesn't pick stocks or buy and hold. Every week, an algorithm analyzes recent trends in the S&P 500, Dow, and Nasdaq-100, then rotates the portfolio into whichever indexes look strongest. When volatility spikes, the fund can move entirely to cash or money markets, sitting out downturns until conditions improve.

This represents two completely different investing approaches. VFLO suits investors who want exposure to profitable, cash-generating businesses and can stomach normal market swings. You're betting on fundamentals, and the companies that make money regardless of market sentiment.

THIR targets investors worried about drawdowns who'll pay 0.69% annually for an algorithm trying to dodge selloffs. The risk? The fund is still relatively new, and market-timing strategies can backfire in volatile markets, costing you fees while failing to catch rallies or avoid selloffs.
