These are not guidelines you have to remember. Every trading principle below is enforced automatically by the Nucore algorithm, running 24/7 inside your brokerage account, so you never have to choose between convenience and your values.
Short-selling involves profiting from a company's decline. Nucore's signals are long-only, we never recommend positions that benefit from business failure or economic harm.
Margin trading introduces interest-bearing debt into your portfolio. All Nucore signals assume 100% equity funding, no leverage, no borrowed capital, no interest obligations.
Options, futures, and other derivatives involve elements of speculation that conflict with principled investing. Nucore operates exclusively in the equity long-only space.
Every position Nucore recommends represents genuine ownership in a real, productive business that passed our ethical screening, not a financial instrument layered on top of it.
Every signal comes with a factor score breakdown. You can inspect exactly why a stock was signaled for purchase or sale, no arbitrary selections.
We invest only in companies whose business activity creates genuine economic value, goods, services, and innovation that benefit society rather than extract from it.
It's easy to say you follow ethical trading principles. It's harder to enforce them algorithmically, at scale, with full auditability. Nucore does both. The algorithm runs fully automated under your account, every ethical constraint below is applied to every trade, every day, without any manual input from you.
Restricting our signal universe to long positions means our returns are directly tied to the success of the businesses we hold. We win when they win, not when they lose. This aligns investor incentives with positive economic outcomes.
Leverage amplifies both gains and losses and introduces interest costs into the equation. Our illustrative 11,984% backtest was achieved with zero leverage, demonstrating that principled constraints don't require abandoning performance ambitions.
