Philosophy Chart
Line chart plotting value against time. Two lines run across the upper half: portfolio value stays above benchmark value throughout, and the gap between the two, which widens over time, is labelled Alpha. A third line across the lower half shows workouts as a percentage of the portfolio and rises and falls in four waves. Dashed arrows connect each peak of the workouts line to a local peak of the benchmark line, showing that the allocation to workouts is increased when the market approaches a high and reduced as it falls back.
