The Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio is a simple Dual Momentum (DM) portfolio with a fast/slow (short look-back/long look-beack) twist. We’ll look first at the performance to date: where we see that we are a little behind our AOR benchmark. So, we’ll look first at the slow moving (Kahneman) portion of the portfolio and the rotation graphs: I […]
Darwin Portfolio Review: 2 June 2023
The Darwin Portfolio is an “All-Weather” portfolio with a dash of volatility. Performance to date (since lowering volatility target levels last November) looks like this: The large “jumps” correspond to periodic allocation adjustments to risk parity – but maybe the stacked chart is easier to follow: at least it is a little easier to see […]
Hawking Portfolio Review: 2 June 2023
The Hawking Portfolio continues to outperform the AOR benchmark Fund over the long term despite giving back a lot of it’s lead from the February highs: We are still trying to recover from the ~25% Draw-Down experienced in 2022. Current holdings look like this (apologies for the lack of Descriptive names – but Yahoo is […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 1): 2 June 2023
As I have mentioned in recent reviews of the Rutherford Portfolio I have to take money out of this retirement account so, following last week’s review of Tranche 5, I have “retired” Tranche 5 and adjusted the other 4 tranches to $19,000 each – or a total portfolio value of $76,000. I will continue to […]
Bullish Percent Indicators: 2 June 2023
Friday’s strong market turned out to be a positive injection for the U.S. Equities market. International ETFs benefited as well. This reaction to the debt limit solution is reflected in the first screenshot below. What is somewhat surprising is that approximately 50% of the stocks in the indexes are still bearish. In other words, the […]
Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 1 June 2023
The Schrodinger is an excellent portfolio to lead off June as it is a “no decision” portfolio designed for investors who have no interest in the workings of the stock market. Managed by computers at Schwab, the Schrodinger is known as a Robo Advisor account. Schwab calls these accounts Intelligent Portfolios. This portfolio was initially […]
Bethe Portfolio Review: 30 May 2023
Before getting into the review of the Bethe portfolio the photo above reminds me of when Memorial Day was referred to as Decoration Day. This was a day to decorate graves, particularly of fallen war soldiers. Small towns celebrated the day with a parade that included the high school band, decorated bicycles, tractors, fire engines, […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 5): 26 May 2023
Franklin Sector BPI Plus Update: 26 May 2023
Franklin is the Sector BPI portfolio I’m examining today. Before progressing further I need to warn readers that Yahoo once again fiddled with their downloading codes so the Kipling data is not current. In fact it is a week old. This problem poses a question of what to do if the Kipling were to fail […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 4): 19 May 2023
US equities showed strong performance over the past week – particularly in the last 2 days: and price seems to be moving nicely in the uptrend channel that began last October. However, although we seem to be through the 50% retracement line at ~4150 we have still not closed above the February high of ~4200 […]
