Hawking Portfolio Review: 8 January, 2025

January 10, 2025 By hedgehunter

Not a lot of action here as this is essentially a Buy-And-Hold Portfolio with a re-investment of dividends ($2,000+ since the last review). Current holdings look like this: with an anticipated 12% annual yield – or over $1,000 per month “income” from dividends. Performance of the portfolio since inception in December 2020 (4 years) looks […]

Einstein Portfolio Update: 8 January 2025

January 8, 2025 By Lowell Herr

As we move into 2025 portfolios such as the Einstein will move toward greater simplification.  After a number of years of observation it is the most basic of asset allocation portfolios that are performing best, both from Internal Rate of Return data as well as reduction in risk (Jensen Alpha values).  The transition will be […]

Rutherford Portfolio Review (Part 2 – Options): 6 January 2025

January 8, 2025 By hedgehunter

After making a mandatory ~$20,000 withdrawal from the Rutherford Portfolio, that I had been managing using a strict momentum model, I was left with ~$70,000 for future investment. Going forward into 2025, and beyond, I plan to split these funds into 3 portions. In Part 1 of this series (https://itawealth.com/rutherford-portfolio-review-part-1-3-january-2025/), I outlined how I plan […]

2025: A Year To Simplify

January 7, 2025 By Lowell Herr

Just as Hedgehunter is making a few portfolio changes, 2025 is a year for a few changes in several ITA portfolios.  Those that will remain unchanged, at least for now, are:  Copernicus, Schrodinger, and Carson.  Each of these three portfolios uses a different investing model. Copernicus:  Invest only in U.S. Equities.  Focus on VOO as […]

Darwin Portfolio Review: 3 January 2025

January 6, 2025 By hedgehunter

I do not post a review of the Darwin Portfolio very often because I rarely adjust it and it behaves, for the most part, like a Buy-And-Hold Portfolio. The Portfolio holds a handful of ETFs covering different market segments to provide diversification and reduce overall portfolio volatility. Asset allocation is determined by applying the principles […]

Bethe Asset Allocation Update: 6 January 2024

January 6, 2025 By Lowell Herr

Bethe is the Asset Allocation portfolio up for review this morning.  The last five weeks have not been what we wish for in portfolio performance and the weakness is showing up in this update of the Bethe.  Unrest in the energy sector continues to keep the stock market off balance.  Despite fourth quarter dividends 2024 […]

Rutherford Portfolio Review (Part 1 – Darwin): 3 January 2025

January 6, 2025 By hedgehunter

Although this post is titled “Rutherford Portfolio Review” it is not really a review of the portfolio that I have reported on in the past as I have (officially) closed that portfolio down in order to document how it is possible to manage relatively simple diversified portfolios in different ways. The appeal of a portfolio […]

Huygens Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 3 January 2025

January 3, 2025 By Lowell Herr

Huygens is another Asset Allocation portfolio that was launched in April of 2024.  In a few months we will have one year of data which will begin to provide some clues as to how well this particular array of assets perform.  If 2025 turns out to be as volatile as I anticipate, the coming months […]
