Carson Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 29 January 2024

January 29, 2024 By Lowell Herr

Of the numerous Sector BPI portfolio tracked here at ITA, Carson is the oldest. As more historical data becomes available, are there any weaknesses showing up in the model? Perhaps, so follow along with this analysis. As yet I’ve not added VEA and VWO to the investment quiver. Thus far I’ve only added these international […]

Einstein Portfolio Review: 29 January 2024

January 29, 2024 By Lowell Herr

Einstein is the Sector BPI portfolio up for review this morning. One change made to the investment quiver is the addition of Developed International Equities (VEA) and Emerging Market Equities (VWO). Neither asset class is currently recommended for purchase so now is a good time to add these two additional securities to the investment quiver. […]

Bullish Percent Indicators: 26 January 2024

January 27, 2024 By Lowell Herr

When financial news reports the stock market is either up or down the information is generally referring to the 30 Dow Jones Industrial stocks. While the DJIA forms a significant percentage of the U.S. Equities market it does not tell the whole story. Left out of this news is the entire international market. The following […]

Bohr Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 25 January 2024

January 26, 2024 By Lowell Herr

Before proceeding with the Bohr review, on occasion I see where an interested investor subscribes to the ITA Wealth Management blog, but they do not show up as a Guest. If I do not see a Guest registration I am unable to elevate the user to the Platinum level so they can read all the […]

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 24 January 2024

January 24, 2024 By Lowell Herr

If you are looking for investment advice for your children or grandchildren, Copernicus is an excellent choice as no management skills are required. Open up a broker account and begin saving. While the Copernicus focuses on four broad index ETFs (VTI, SPY, VOO, and ESGV) one can narrow this to one or two ETFs. VOO […]

McClintock Portfolio Review: 22 January 2024

January 23, 2024 By Lowell Herr

Yesterday the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) closed above 38,000 for the first time in history. A few readers may recall a book titled: Dow 36,000: The New Strategy for Profiting From the Coming Rise in the Stock Market written by James K. Glassman and Kevin A. Hassett, published on October 1, 1999. Many investors, […]

Huygens Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 22 January 2024

January 22, 2024 By Lowell Herr

Now that we passed the mid-way point in January I want to update all portfolios that were last reviewed in December. The Huygens is one such Sector BPI portfolio. Another reason for paying special attention to the Sector BPI portfolios is that many are carrying excess cash due to TSLOs being struck when the market […]

Bullish Percent Indicators: 19 January 2024

January 20, 2024 By Lowell Herr

Before looking up any Bullish Percent Indicator data I envision or guess what the various indexes and sectors will show. Will the trends be bullish or bearish. Based on a strong Friday market I anticipated a number of the indexes and sectors would turn bullish. Not so. Technology is the one sector of the market […]
