Born from a collision of physics, systems theory, and market reality, the Push-Pull Framework is VPW’s foundational model for navigating the shifting landscape of 21st-century investing.

In a world no longer defined by neat economic categories or predictable returns, this paper explores how growth and stability can work as complementary forces—not opposites. Drawing on Toffler’s Wave Theory, Mandelbrot’s market chaos, entropy, behavioral finance, and Newtonian dynamics, the framework presents a new lens for portfolio construction: one that evolves with time, complexity, and change.

This isn’t a whitepaper for marketing. It’s a philosophical and practical manifesto. Read it if you want to understand why 60/40 is no longer enough—and what to do about it.
