It was a bad week for equities with the SPX (S&P 500 Index) dropping ~2.5% on the week: We are now back in the potential support zone (shaded area) near the prior pivot low at ~4200 and close to the bottom of the 2SD boundary of the longer term bullish uptrend channel. On the pessimistic […]
Kepler Portfolio Transition: 21 October 2023
As promised this Kepler review begins the transition from the Relative Strength model to the Sector BPI Plus model. I’ve simplified the Investment Quiver as readers will see in a moment. The Investment Account Manager (IAM) only holds end of the month data so the “launch” date for this new model will be October […]
Copernicus Portfolio Review: 17 October 2023
Copernicus is the portfolio up for review this morning. If you have been reading the ITA blog for any length of time you are well aware of the simple investing philosophy behind the Copernicus.

Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 4): 13 October 2023
The week started with a continuation of the recovery bounce that we saw at the end of last week – but this was to be negated on Thursday and Friday with the earlier gains being given back and US equities closing the week only ~0.25% higher than last week’s close and moving lower: The upper […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 3): 6 October 2023
We started the week with a continuation of the recent bearish trend and a test of the 4200 support level in the SPX, but Friday’s strong bounce led to a ~0.25% higher close from last week’s close.: However we are now re-testing the 4300 level – at the top of the support/resistance zone (shaded area) […]
Bullish Percent Indicator Data: 6 October 2023
Based on Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) data we still seem mired in the “Dog Days of Summer.” The BPI graphs would look even worse if it were not for the strong day on Friday. As readers will see in a moment, the Friday rebound was confined primarily to large-cap stocks and we need to see […]
Schrodinger Portfolio Update: 6 October 2023
Yesterday I received notification from Schwab that the Intelligent Portfolio had been rebalanced. Since this is a rather infrequent event I decided to update the Schrodinger to see what changes occurred. There are a number changes and one would need to go back a review or two and compare the portfolios. Schrodinger Investment Quiver and […]
Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 2 October 2023
Several Sector BPI Plus portfolios are scheduled for review this week. Franklin is the first. I checked the BPI data this morning and it is too early for any Monday data to show up. I expected to see the market move up based on the U.S. Government remaining open for business. Instead, the market opened […]

Which Assets Should I Consider Holding and What System Should I Use to Manage my Portfolio? These are questions that all investors will ask. The answers are not simple or straightforward and will depend on our goals, objectives, tolerance for risk and even prejudices. Let’s start by looking at assets that we might hold – […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 2): 29 September 2023
Last week US equities closed at ~4320 and sitting at the top of a potential support zone (4150-4300). The question was whether we would see support at this level (and a bounce) or whether we would see a continuation of the short-term downtrend that we have been in for the past couple of months. The […]
