Bohr is one of two major growth-income portfolios. The other is the Bethe. The growth comes from investing in VTI, VEA, and VWO. The income is generated from numerous Closed-End-Funds (CEFs). In the first screenshot below the CEFs have a light gray background. What to do with all the cash is the major problem as […]

Thanksgiving Wishes
Happy Thanksgiving Sending all ITA readers Thanksgiving well wishes from Portland, Oregon. Thank you for keeping in touch and reading this investment blog. A few of you have been here for the nearly 15 years I’ve been writing this blog. A special thanks to Hedgehunter (David) for all his contributions to make this site even […]
McClintock Portfolio Review: 23 November 2022
Of all the Dual Momentum™ portfolios, the McClintock stands out as the top performer. The exact reason remains somewhat of a mystery. I attribute the excellent performance to the luck-of-review-day as the operational model is the same for all the DM portfolios. Based on five years of data with four different Dual Momentum (DM) portfolios, […]
Copernicus Portfolio Review: 22 November 2022
Copernicus is one of the newest portfolios among the sixteen currently tracked here at ITA Wealth Management. In addition to the sixteen I track, several more are tracked and managed by Hedgehunter. Copernicus is the highest risk portfolio in that 100% of the investments focus on U.S. Equities. This is also a portfolio for the […]
Millikan Portfolio Review: 15 November 2022
Millikan, one of the several Relative Momentum portfolios, is up for review this morning. This is one of four or five portfolios that are not keeping up with the AOA benchmark, due in large part to carrying too much cash during this recent market upswing. Here at ITA I am tracking a variety of portfolio […]
Carson Portfolio Checkup: 12 November 2022
Based on Bullish Percent Indicator data published earlier, a few changes are required for this new and unique portfolio titled Carson. In case you missed it, I merged the dollars from the Carson HA, Carson BHS, into what was the Carson LRPC and renamed it Carson after Rachel Carson. This new Carson is now managed […]
Einstein Portfolio Review: 9 November 2022
Einstein is another Relative Strength (RS) portfolio that has not performed as well as expected, although it is outperforming its benchmark. The expectation for RS portfolios is to resist draw-downs, and that has not been the case. Portfolios that have resisted the bear market are those portfolios where fewer trades are conducted. Next month I […]
Millikan Portfolio Review: 8 November 2022
The Millikan portfolio is not scheduled for an update until later this month. However, the portfolio holds excess cash so an analysis seems prudent to check what the recommendations are based on price changes over the last few weeks. When I checked yesterday, mid-cap value (VOE) and small-cap value (VBR) were recommended so I purchased […]
