A general framework is presented for supersymmetric theories that do not suffer from fine-tuning in electroweak symmetry breaking. Supersymmetry is dynamically broken at a scale \Lambda \approx (10 - 100) TeV, which is transmitted to the supersymmetric standard model sector through standard model gauge interactions. The dynamical supersymmetry breaking sector possesses an approximate global SU(5) symmetry, whose SU(3) x SU(2) x U(1) subgroup is explicitly gauged and identified as the standard model gauge group. This SU(5) symmetry is dynamically broken at the scale \Lambda, leading to pseudo-Goldstone boson states, which we call xyons. We perform a detailed estimate for the xyon mass and find that it is naturally in the multi-TeV region. We study general properties of xyons, including their lifetime, and study their collider signatures. A generic signature is highly ionizing tracks caused by stable charged bound states of xyons, which may be observed at the LHC. We also consider cosmology in our scenario and find that a consistent picture can be obtained. Our framework is general and does not depend on the detailed structure of the Higgs sector, nor on the mechanism of gaugino mass generation.
