Create an investment portfolio made up of 10 to 12 low cost ETFs. Diversify the portfolio […]

Portfolio Diversification: 6 June 2026

June 6, 2026 By Lowell Herr 4 Comments

What to make of Friday’s sell off?  Hi Tech took a hit last Friday, but the broad market is still bullish based on the Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) for the NYSE. These mixed signals are confusing at best.  This next week, as well as the behavior of the U.S. Equities market over the summer will […]

McClintock Sector BPI Portfolio Update: 5 June 2026

June 5, 2026 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

Since McClintock is a Sector BPI portfolio, I updated the BPI spreadsheet and found that Health is overbought.  I placed a 3% TSLO under VHT.  What I’ve been doing is selling all but one (1) share.  Without going into great detail, holding on to a single share makes it easier to keep track of the […]

Huygens Portfolio Review: 3 June 2026

June 3, 2026 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

Huygens is the portfolio up for review this morning.  Before getting into the portfolio update here are three important measurements to use as references or indicators as to future market movement.  We know the Shiller CAPE and Buffett Indicator are both showing the market is overvalued.  This was also true in 1996, but the market […]

Millikan Portfolio Review: 2 June 2026

June 2, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

The Millikan portfolio is the second of five portfolios to be reviewed and updated this week.  Once more the broad equities market is up slightly as I write this blog.  As readers will see in the first screenshot, I am patiently waiting for better buying opportunities as this is an overbought market.

Gauss Portfolio Review: 1 June 2026

June 1, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

I gave ChatGPT the following instruction.  Below this sentence is the response from this AI source.  If you have access to a different AI program, give it the identical instruction and compare the results.  When I tried it with Microsoft the feedback would not specify ETFs. Create a diversified portfolio of 12 to 15 low […]
