C8 Technologies is pleased to announce that five indices derived from Thor Financial Technologies will now be available through the C8 platform.

The indices are: Thor All Asset, Thor Low Volatility SDQ, Thor Sector 100, Thor ESG 100, and Thor Diversified Bond. Thor Financial Technologies, LLC provides solutions that enables advisors to deploy their client portfolios in a more intelligent way with a main focus on managing risk.

“Thor has grown nicely by creating solutions that financial advisors see value in. Now Thor users can utilize C8 Technology to create custom blends (UMAs) or invest directly in the underlying securities with our Direct Indexing tools, says Craig Cmiel, Head of C8 US. Our international clients now have access to Thor via our global platform.”

C8 Studio: Thor Low Vol SDQ vs S&P 500

Thor Low Volatility SDQ index trades the S&P500, Dow Jones Industrial Average and Nasdaq 100 Index (either ETF or Future).  Thor’s proprietary technology can de-risk the portfolio and overweight the best performing index over time.  As the portfolio rotates to risk off only then will the strategy begin to raise cash. As the chart above shows, the strategy can track the US stock market in good times but it was then successful in limiting drawdowns during the more volatile markets seen over the past three years.
