It was a very quiet week in US Equity markets with the S&P 500 Index trading in a tight ~40 point range: However, the SPX did close down slightly from last week’s close after hitting it’s head against strong resistance at ~4150-4200 – an area that has shown strong support/resistance in the past (arrows). In […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 4): 14 April 2023
US equities were up ~1% from last week’s close: and closed just outside the upper 2 SD boundary of the longer term downtrend channel. However, price is at the 50% retracement level of the peak-trough range of this channel that has provided significant support and resistance in the past. We really need to take out […]
Hawking Portfolio Review: 6 April 2023
The Hawking Portfolio is, essentially, a Buy-And-Hold Portfolio designed to generate Income from investments in Closed End Funds (CEFs). This class of Funds were hit quite hard over the past month: although the dividends generated by the Funds is still keeping portfolio returns ahead of the benchmark AOR Fund. Being an Income Fund the only […]
Darwin Portfolio Review: 6 April 2023
The Darwin Portfolio is a “Buy-And-Hold” portfolio of assets that is only adjusted when allocations fall out-of-line with recommendations based on risk parity (i.e. equal risk on all holdings). Performance to date (~4 months from inception) looks like this: or, in stacked format: because of the adjustments these plots are a little difficult to follow […]

Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio Review: 6 April 2023
The Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio is a simple Dual Momentum Portfolio where we pick only one of three assets in our investment quiver (providing they have positive momentum relative to SHY – our “risk-free” benchmark fund). The only diversification here is that we split the portfolio and use a long-term (252-day) momentum look-back period for one half […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 3): 6 April 2023
In a holiday-shortened week US equities were relatively quiet but managed to close the week up ~1% from last week’s close: However price is still hanging around in that pendant pattern (defined by yellow boundary lines of the bearish and bullish 2 SD channels) and we still have no obvious reason to favor either a […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 2): 31 March 2023
The first Quater of 2023 ended with US equities putting in a strong performance closing up over 3.6% from last week’s close. Price is getting squeezed in that pendant zone between the 2 heavy yellow boundaries of the bearish and bullish trend channels. We can expect to see a breakout in one direction or the […]
