Bullish Percent Indicators: 2 May 2025

May 3, 2025 By Lowell Herr 6 Comments

Market action over the past few days has been sufficient to push ITA portfolios to a higher level than they were on March 31, 2025.  This recent push only elevates the Buffett Indicator and Shiller PE Ratio. Index BPI All indexes are currently bullish and four are in the overbought zone.  Note that the two […]

Buffett Indicator & Shiller PE Ratio

May 2, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Canyonland National Park Over the last few weeks I’ve been setting Trailing Stop Loss Orders (TSLOs) for VTI, VOO, and SCHG when portfolios holding these securities come up for review.  The tariff wars are causing market uncertainty, but tariffs are not the only reason for setting TSLOs.  Erratic administration behavior only exacerbates an overbought market. […]

Millikan Portfolio Review: 1 May 2025

May 1, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Headline news this morning – “Trump’s tariffs have left businesses in a ‘state of near paralysis’.” Advanced planning is nearly impossible do to an erratic administration that is in the hands of one person.  A person who was not even able to make casinos a success. Based on a rough economic market ahead I have […]

McClintock Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 29 April 2025

April 29, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

McClintock is one of three portfolios managed using the Sector BPI model.  The other two are the Carson and Franklin, named after Rachel and Rosalind respectively.  During the recent market declines numerous sectors dropped into the oversold zone.  In other words, many sectors ended up with 30% or fewer bullish stock within the sector.  When […]

Bullish Percent Indicators: 17 April 2025

April 19, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Most weeks there is so little market action among the major sectors and indexes that updating the Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) data is unnecessary.  Tariff uncertainty is roiling the markets to where updating is meaningful.  The two tables below examine what is happening to seven major U.S. Equity markets and eleven sectors that make up […]

Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 11 April 2025

April 14, 2025 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

Schrodinger is the gold standard when it comes to passive investing.  This portfolio answers the question, “Who will manage the family portfolio when I die?”  This style portfolio goes by several titles.  The general classification is Robo Advisor where the portfolio is managed by computer.  Eventually I expect Artificial Intelligence will be or is currently […]

Bullish Percent Indicators: 11 April 2025

April 12, 2025 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

Based on the high volatility of the U.S. Equities market this week I thought it expedient to post the latest Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) data.  For those not familiar with BPI graphs, it is an entirely different way to plot price movements of stocks, ETFs, or in this case market indexes and market sectors.  The […]

Carson Portfolio Update: 10 April 2025

April 9, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

  The following data was scheduled for publication at least one day ago, but I was distracted due to the market plunge.  This portfolio is the oldest of the Sector BPI portfolios, but it has not been through a volatile market such as we have experienced over the last few days. As I mentioned when […]
