At the end of every year (at least) I take a look at my portfolios and ask myself the question – “Is it worth the effort trying to actively manage my portfolios rather than simply holding an Index fund ?” (for example). As we see in many of our reviews it is very difficult to […]
Hawking Portfolio Review: 8 January, 2025
Not a lot of action here as this is essentially a Buy-And-Hold Portfolio with a re-investment of dividends ($2,000+ since the last review). Current holdings look like this: with an anticipated 12% annual yield – or over $1,000 per month “income” from dividends. Performance of the portfolio since inception in December 2020 (4 years) looks […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Part 2 – Options): 6 January 2025
After making a mandatory ~$20,000 withdrawal from the Rutherford Portfolio, that I had been managing using a strict momentum model, I was left with ~$70,000 for future investment. Going forward into 2025, and beyond, I plan to split these funds into 3 portions. In Part 1 of this series (https://itawealth.com/rutherford-portfolio-review-part-1-3-january-2025/), I outlined how I plan […]
2025: A Year To Simplify
Just as Hedgehunter is making a few portfolio changes, 2025 is a year for a few changes in several ITA portfolios. Those that will remain unchanged, at least for now, are: Copernicus, Schrodinger, and Carson. Each of these three portfolios uses a different investing model. Copernicus: Invest only in U.S. Equities. Focus on VOO as […]
Darwin Portfolio Review: 3 January 2025
I do not post a review of the Darwin Portfolio very often because I rarely adjust it and it behaves, for the most part, like a Buy-And-Hold Portfolio. The Portfolio holds a handful of ETFs covering different market segments to provide diversification and reduce overall portfolio volatility. Asset allocation is determined by applying the principles […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Part 1 – Darwin): 3 January 2025
Although this post is titled “Rutherford Portfolio Review” it is not really a review of the portfolio that I have reported on in the past as I have (officially) closed that portfolio down in order to document how it is possible to manage relatively simple diversified portfolios in different ways. The appeal of a portfolio […]
Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 2 January 2025
While this Schrodinger post is going up on January 2nd, the data is accurate as of 31 December 2024. The overall performance is quite strong despite the four percentage point loss in December. This post of the Schrodinger marks the three-year point of data collection. Overall, the results have been quite impressive and surpass my […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review: 27 December 2024
It was a rather uneventful week in the US Equity markets with relatively low volume as a consequence of the holidays. However, the SPX (S&P 500 Index) did manage to close the week ~0.5% higher than last week’s close despite a weak day on Friday: We are still in the middle of the uptrend channel […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 2): 20 December 2024
Mr Powell seems to be the Grinch who stole Christmas and blocked Santa’s rally to the 6200 level. Investors did not react well to Mr Powell’s statements that there might only be two rate cuts next year and US markets dropped close to 4% following his comments before recovering some of this on Friday: However, […]
Copernicus Portfolio Review: 19 December 2024
Keep it simple is the philosophy of the Copernicus portfolio. Invest only in U.S. Equities such as VOO and VTI and never sell unless there is an emergency. Keep cash levels low and expenses to a minimum. One reason for including ESGV as part of the portfolio is to purchase shares if the remaining cash […]
