Kepler Portfolio Review: 23 January 2026

January 23, 2026 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

Kepler is the portfolio up for review this morning.  When you look over the asset allocations you will observe this portfolio is heading in a very conservative direction.  I am attempting to “recession proof” this account.  When this bull market fever breaks it will be difficult to keep any assets on the positive side with […]

Dirac 2026 Portfolio Review: 21 January 2026

January 22, 2026 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

Last week I started to populate the Dirac Portfolio so as to manage it using my new Momentum/Trend and integrated Mean Reversion model/system. The objective is to see if it might be possible to beat the broader US Equity Market (S&P 500 or similar Index/Fund) by rotating between sectors that comprise this broader market.

Beta: A Brief Description

January 19, 2026 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

What is beta and how is it measured?  In the context of an investment portfolio, beta refers to a measure of a stock’s volatility in relation to the overall market. A beta value greater than one indicates that the stock is more volatile than the market, while a value less than one suggests it is […]

Darwin 2026 Portfolio Review: 16 January 2026

January 18, 2026 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

Over the past week, US Equity markets continued to consolidate in a narrow range around the ~6950 level in the SPX (S&P 500 Index), closing ~0.3% lower than last week’s close despite hitting new all-time highs on Tuesday and trading above average volumes: Compared to other major asset classes this was the weakest performance of […]

McClintock Sector BPI Portfolio Update: 16 January 2026

January 16, 2026 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

We end an active week of portfolio reviews with an update of the McClintock.  McClintock is one of the youngest Sector BPI portfolios with a 2-year history.  Thus far the Sector BPI investing model is showing itself to be a very workable investing model.  None of the Sector BPI portfolios went through the 2022 draw-down […]

Copernicus Portfolio Update: 15 January 2026

January 15, 2026 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

Here we are at the halfway point in January and it is time to update the top performing portfolio, Copernicus.  Copernicus is an equity only portfolio where I set out to invest only in S&P 500 equities.  With the market hovering at its high point diversification seemed prudent.  As a result I pulled back on […]

Gauss Portfolio Review: 14 January 2026

January 14, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Gauss is the portfolio scheduled for an update.  The latest asset allocation model is designed to be somewhat recession proof – if such an asset allocation is possible.  By recession proof, there are several low volatile ETFs that will throw off dividends so as to keep the various assets close to target.
