Pauling is another asset allocation portfolio managed using only four Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs). Only two months of data is in the bank for this portfolio so it is much too early to know if this model is working as hypothesized. The makeup of the Pauling is not all that different from the Copernicus. The […]

McClintock Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 29 April 2025
McClintock is one of three portfolios managed using the Sector BPI model. The other two are the Carson and Franklin, named after Rachel and Rosalind respectively. During the recent market declines numerous sectors dropped into the oversold zone. In other words, many sectors ended up with 30% or fewer bullish stock within the sector. When […]
Gauss Portfolio Review: 28 April 2025
Gauss is one of the simplified Asset Allocation portfolios in that only four ETFs are used. SHV is used as a holding basket when cash becomes available. Due to the chaotic market I set TSLOs under VOO and SCHG as I assume the current administration will make several mistakes that will have a negative […]
Dirac Portfolio Review: 8 January 2025
I have sadly neglected the Dirac Portfolio after taking money out of the account for other purposes with the intention of rebuilding once the money was returned to the account.

The Carson currently holds at least one share in 10 of the 11 sectors. The hope is that a few of these sectors will move up faster than the broad […]
Bohr Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 21 April 2025
U.S. Equities are taking another huge hit as I write this blog. Due to holding a high percentage in short-term treasuries and a dividend oriented ETF, the Bohr is tempering the draw-down. Nevertheless, the tariff debacle is ripping into 401(k) retirement accounts. In the rebalancing section of this blog I will state how I am […]
Bullish Percent Indicators: 17 April 2025
Most weeks there is so little market action among the major sectors and indexes that updating the Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) data is unnecessary. Tariff uncertainty is roiling the markets to where updating is meaningful. The two tables below examine what is happening to seven major U.S. Equity markets and eleven sectors that make up […]
