Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 20 March 2026

March 20, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Recent market declines kicked several sectors into the oversold zone.  The Franklin ETFs impacted are:  VCR, VDC, VFH, VHT, VIS, and VOX.  When I ran the Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) numbers before the market opened, Industrial registered 31.64 and Consumer Staples was 30.55.  This is why I placed limit orders for VIS and VDC.  Readers […]

Bohr Portfolio Update: 17 March 2026

March 17, 2026 By Lowell Herr 4 Comments

This is a special blog post for two reasons. The new asset allocation for the Bohr is designed to resist the coming recession.  Check the low beta value. At the bottom of the page is the most coherent explanation of why current withdrawal requests from private equity companies is placing so much stress on the […]

Millikan Portfolio Review: 16 March 2026

March 16, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Millikan is a basic asset allocation portfolio.  As the portfolio currently stands cash holdings are high.  Limit orders are in place but may not be struck immediately as buy prices are well below the current prices.  And the delta is now even greater due to the surge this morning. If you are locked out of […]

Darwin 2026 Portfolio Review: 13 March 2026

March 15, 2026 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

US Equity markets continued their weakness, with investor concerns over political situations in the Middle East resulting in the SPX (S&P500 Index) closing ~ 1.5% lower than last week’s close. This leaves us near the lower boundary of the tentative downtrend channel that I drew a couple of weeks ago: Compared to other major asset […]

Dirac 2026 Portfolio Review: 13 May 2026

March 15, 2026 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

It was a ~1.5% pullback in US Equity markets, as measured by the SPY ETF, that is the benchmark for the Dirac Portfolio. The Dirac Portfolio attempts to beat the performance of the benchmark by rotating between the sectors that compose this benchmark. Since my last review I have made two adjustments to holdings in […]

Portfolio Hedging

March 12, 2026 By hedgehunter 1 Comment

Warning: This post is likely of no direct interest to most readers of this Blog – it is written for education and interest only, and outlines one of the potential advantages of using Options for portfolio insurance. These are nervous times and we should be concerned about preserving our hard-earned wealth in the months ahead. […]

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 11 March 2026

March 11, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Copernicus is the equity portfolio scheduled for review this morning.  Based on an over priced U.S. stock market I shifted the emphasis slightly, moving from the S&P 500 (VOO) over to several dividend oriented ETFs.  Below you see a significant percentage of the portfolio focusing on VIG, SCHD and VYM.  Yes, there will be overlapping […]
