HFEA
Abbreviated from "Hedgefundie's Excellent Adventure", HFEA is an investment strategy that was originally first made popular by a user on the bogleheads.org forum, which involves holding 55% UPRO (a daily 3x leveraged ETF that tracks the S&P 500) and 45% TMF (a 3x daily leveraged ETF that tracks long term treasuries), rebalanced quarterly. Note that Hedgefundie did NOT create this strategy. They only made it popular among retail investors, and thus while HFEA is named after them, they did not create the strategy itself.
