Millikan is the asset allocation portfolio up for review this morning and it is undergoing a few changes.  The new allocation of assets is designed to further diversify the portfolio, provide additional resistance to a possible recession, and to counter the high probability of financial repression.  Read the blogs on Financial Repression (FR) and look […]

McClintock Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 5 May 2026

Cohen, the founder of the market analysis service Investors Intelligence (then called ChartCraft), created it as a “market barometer” to […]

Huygens Portfolio Review: 4 May 2026

May 4, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Huygens is the portfolio up for review today and in this portfolio I am rebalancing the account to counter the high probability the FED, with cooperation from the government, will strive to inflate their way out of the 39 trillion (and growing) national debt.

Financial Repression Portfolio: Part V

May 4, 2026 By Lowell Herr 2 Comments

Over the last few days I’ve concentrated on what impact Financial Repression is likely to have on portfolios invested in the U.S. Equities and Bond markets.  The outlook over the next decade is highly unlikely to continue the long bull market experienced since August of 1982.  Yes, there were major hiccups along the way such […]

Financial Repression: Another Perspective

May 3, 2026 By hedgehunter 10 Comments

I have found Lowell’s recent posts on this subject very interesting – so I asked Claude (AI) for his/her suggestions: “Here’s a Financial Repression-resistant ETF portfolio for a retiree. Financial repression = central banks keeping real rates negative, inflating away debt — erodes cash, bonds, and nominal assets. The defense: hard assets, inflation-linkers, real yields, […]

Financial Repression: Part IV

May 3, 2026 By Lowell Herr 3 Comments

Appointment of a new FED Chairman caused me to dig into what is known as Financial Repression.  For another explanation of the term check out the following quote. “The term “financial repression” was coined in 1973 by Stanford economists Ronald McKinnon and Edward Shaw. They introduced the concept to describe government policies—such as interest rate […]

May 3, 2026 By hedgehunter 1 Comment

US Equity markets reached new highs again this week and closed the week a little less than 1% higher than last week’s close. When we take a look at sector performance over this period: we see that Energy (XLE) was the clear leader.

Darwin 2026 Portfolio Review: 1 May 2026

May 2, 2026 By hedgehunter 1 Comment

As we go into the mid-third of the year (the lazy-hazy days of Summer), in a somewhat uncertain world, it seems as though investors don’t care about global political and economic problems any more and US equity markets continue to grind higher and to make higher highs week after week. This is exactly what happened […]
