Hawking Portfolio Review: 1 August 2025

August 3, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

Normally there is not a lot for me to say in my reviews of the Hawking Portfolio because I like to try to keep it as a low maintainance (close to Buy-And-Hold) portfolio that generates steady monthly income at a predicable 8-12% level. This is achieved through a selection of diversified Closed-End-Funds (CEFs) or ETFs.  […]

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio Review: 25 July 2025

July 27, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

US equities continued their steady climb to new all-time highs this week with the SPX (S&P 500 Index) closing ~1.5% higher than last week’s Close: The next potential resistance level might come somewhere in the 6450-6500 range between the 1.236 Fibonacci extension level and the psychologically significant 6500 “round number”. From there we would wait […]

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio Review: 18 July 2025

July 21, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

It was another relatively quiet week in the US Equity markets except for a little nervousness on Wednesday with rumors that Fed Chairman Powell might be fired by the President for not lowering interest rates – but in the end the SPX (S&P 500 Index) closed the week ~0.7% higher than last week’s close:

Hawking Portfolio Review: 14 July 2025

July 15, 2025 By hedgehunter 4 Comments

The Hawking Portfolio does not require a lot of attention as it is designed more as a Buy-And-Hold Portfolio to generate “Income” rather than to rely primarily on “growth” as required in more common equity portfolios.  Although there may be exceptions to this, depending on how closely an investor might choose to monitor his or […]

Dirac Portfolio Review: 11 July 2025

July 14, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

Last week I introduced my revamped Dirac Portfolio that will, roughly, follow the same systems/methodologies as the Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio but with a quiver dedicated only to US markets with no diversification outside of these markets. Risk management will be a little tougher because of trading restrictions resulting from the fact that these securities are held […]

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio Review: 11 July 2025

July 13, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

After the Independence Day Holiday and the break through the significant 6100 resistance level in the S&P 500 Index (SPX) we waited to see where the markets would go next – but, it was a quiet week, with consolidation around 6250 and a close just slightly lower than last week’s close:

Dirac Portfolio Review: 3 July 2025

July 6, 2025 By hedgehunter 1 Comment

Over the past 18 months I have not had the time to decide how to manage the money that has been sitting in the Dirac Portfolio. This was to be a re-build portfolio project based on using an “Income” model, similar to the Hawking Portfolio, but designed to adopt a mean reversion rather than momentum […]
