BX Partners announced the addition of the THOR SDQ 25 strategy from THOR Financial Technologies to five BX Indexes, expanding the platform’s offering of systematic, risk aware investment solutions. The integration provides advisors with access to a disciplined rotation framework designed to help manage volatility while maintaining exposure to major US large cap equity markets.
The THOR SDQ Rotation Index is a rules based methodology that evaluates price trends and historical volatility across key large cap indexes. Each week, the model assesses whether major benchmarks such as the S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average, and Nasdaq 100 are signaling strength or weakness. When conditions are favorable, SDQ tilts toward equity exposures. When signals deteriorate, the strategy can shift partially or fully into defensive positions including cash equivalents. The objective is to participate in rising markets while helping reduce drawdowns during stressed periods. “We are excited to work in collaboration with the team at BX. It has always been our mission to provide advisors with differentiated strategies that can help them accelerate the growth of their business.”
THOR Financial Technologies is known for its focus on computer driven investment strategies with an emphasis on risk management. Advisors choose THOR for differentiated approaches that align with clear financial objectives and a commitment to innovation. THOR supports forward thinking advisors who believe that data and research are essential to providing productive and differentiated investment advice. The firm provides model portfolio guidance and suggested allocations across ETFs, stocks, mutual funds, and bonds, leaving execution fully in the hands of third party advisors.
The firm’s investment leadership is guided by Chief Investment Officer Bradley Roth, a founding principal with deep experience in trading operations, quantitative fund management, and financial advisory roles. Brad played a central role in launching THLV, THOR’s low volatility ETF and THIR, THOR Index Rotation ETF listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
The incorporation of SDQ 25 into five BX Indexes reflects BX Partners’ ongoing commitment to offering advisors thoughtfully designed, research backed strategies that support consistency, scalability, and long term portfolio durability. The SDQ 25 methodology strengthens the BX Index lineup by introducing a dynamic approach that blends market participation with structured downside awareness. BX Co-founder, Craig Cmiel says, “The BX team has known Brad Roth and the investment capabilities at Thor for many years. We are very impressed with their systems that can find alpha, and layer in risk management when appropriate. This rare combination has allowed the BX due diligence team to find their strategies additive when building out model portfolios. We are excited to work alongside the Thor team, and look forward to seeing their performance and development in the future.”
