The bounce in equity prices continued this week as just about all the major asset classes continued to climb. US Equity prices hit the high end of the downtrend channel: Now we wait to see whether there is any follow-through from here or whether we see some softening after after 9 days of higher highs. […]

Millikan Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 13 August 2024
Millikan is one of five portfolios employing the unique Sector BPI investing model. Bullish Percent Indicator charting is not what one might call “main stream” investment tracking. It is a different way of monitoring security performance. The Sector BPI investing model breaks the U. S. Equities market down into eleven sectors. Each week I check […]
Bethe Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 12 August 2024
Bethe was first launched eight years ago, but not as an Asset Allocation portfolio. This month we begin a new (to the Bethe) investing approach with this portfolio. As we gather data from month to month we will see how this model performs, both on a return and risk basis. Diversification across the globe is […]
Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio Review: 9 August, 2024
The Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio is the simplest portfolio that I review on this site and consists of a choice of one ETF from three options – two Equity ETFs (US or International) and one Bond ETF (Long Term US Treasuries).

With the market rebound after the dramatic draw-down, only Energy remains in the oversold zone. This […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 3): 9 August 2024
If we were just to look at prices today and the same time last week we might think that it was a quiet week in the US markets – but, it was far from that, with a dramatic pullback on Monday followed by a full recovery by the end of the week: Monday saw a […]
Pauling Asset Allocation Portfolio Update: 8 August 2024
Pauling is the Asset Allocation portfolio up for review this morning. As one of the poorest performing ITA portfolios over the past two years I made some changes. The big one is a move to an Asset Allocation model which will reduce my workload. Now that treasuries, bonds, real estate and international equities play a […]
Gauss Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 7 August 2024
Gauss is one of five Sector BPI portfolios tracked here on the ITA blog. Launched in December of 2022 we are closing in on two years of data. The initial results look promising, but we still need more oversold and overbought cycles to give this model a real test. The most recent draw-down moved three […]
