In this episode of Lead-Lag Live, I sit down with David Dziekanski, Founder and Portfolio Manager at Quantify Funds, to explain how return stacking reframes leverage from a short-term trading tool into something investors can actually buy and hold.
From combining Bitcoin and gold to stacking income strategies on top of equities, Dziekanski breaks down how diversification, embedded rebalancing, and structural design can deliver income and exposure without relying on extreme yield or constant investor intervention.
In this episode:
– Why leverage is dangerous without diversification
– How return stacking embeds rebalancing inside the ETF
– Why ultra-high yield ETFs often destroy total returns
– How income strategies can replace parts of fixed income
– Where these products fit in modern portfolio construction
