Merry Christmas

December 25, 2022 By Lowell Herr

  “Anyone who possesses the fine virtues of politeness, tolerance and generosity, honesty, diligence and benevolence can be regarded as a person of humanity.

Explaining the Hypothesis of the Sector BPI Model

December 24, 2022 By Lowell Herr

Carson Portfolio Review: 26 December 2022

December 24, 2022 By Lowell Herr

Since the stock market is closed on Monday, I’ll update the Carson this morning and then see what the recommendations are for the various sectors when the Franklin is updated mid-week.  The one change this week was the drop of Real Estate into the over-sold zone.

Portfolio Performance: 22 December 2022

December 22, 2022 By Lowell Herr

With this portfolio comparison data table a pattern is beginning to develop.  It appears as if the better performing portfolios are those with long-range goals.  That is the group at the top.  Curie and Newton, if posted monthly, would also be in this group. It is interesting that each investing model contains at least one […]

December 21, 2022 By Lowell Herr

ITA readers who are using the Kipling spreadsheet in any form are aware that Finance-Yahoo (Yahoo) once more altered their downloading codes so we cannot pull security prices into the spreadsheet.  Fortunately we have a backup system from Tiingo.  If you do not have a Tiingo account (still free to my knowledge) set one up […]

BPI Model buying guidelines.  Two of the sixteen portfolios I track here on the ITA blog are now managed using the Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) Model.  They are:  Carson and Franklin.  Thus far there have been few buying opportunities as the U.S. Equities market is in a mini-bull phase.  It may turn into a full […]

Bohr Portfolio Review: 29 November 2022

November 29, 2022 By Lowell Herr

Bohr is one of two major growth-income portfolios.  The other is the Bethe.  The growth comes from investing in VTI, VEA, and VWO.  The income is generated from numerous Closed-End-Funds (CEFs).  In the first screenshot below the CEFs have a light gray background. What to do with all the cash is the major problem as […]
