Develop a model that signals whether a portfolio should be risk on or risk off. In other words, when should a typical U.S. 60/40 portfolio be overweight, underweight or neutral equities? To help with generating initial ideas with which factors to include, you may want to consider high yield spread and treasury yield curve as a starting point. It would be interesting to see what factors are ultimately included in the model.
