The Darwin Portfolio is an “All-Weather” portfolio of five ETFs representing the major asset classes of US Equities (VTI), International Equities (VSS), US Real Estate (VNQ), US Treasuries (TLT) and Gold (GLD). For additional diversity a 10% allocation is ascribed to an ETF that tracks volatility (usually the inverse SVXY ETF). Adjustments to this portfolio […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 2): 12 April 2024
US Equities got slapped around a little this week and closed the week ~1.6% lower than last week’s close: We are now sitting at the bottom of the bullish trend channel that started last November and we wait to see whether this might be a good entry point if we should bounce from here and […]
Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio Review: 5 April, 2024
The Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio is the simplest Dual Momentum Portfolio that I review here on this site and selects only one asset chosen from a choice between three of the major asset classes – VTI (US Equities), VEA (International Equities) or US Long-Term Trasury Bonds (TLT) – although the benchmark AOR Fund (Equity/Bond combination) may be […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 1): 5 April 2024
Comments made by members of the Fed regarding the possibility that there may be no interest rate cuts this year scared the US equity markets on Thursday and, although they recovered slightly on Friday, markets closed the week ~1% lower from last week’s close: That 5200-5220 resistance area that I have been highlighting for the […]
Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 5 April 2024
Franklin is the Sector BPI portfolio up for review today even though no sectors are in the oversold zone and we sold off all overbought sectors. The current holdings of Staples and Utilities are residing in the neutral zone. Over $2,200 remains in cash so we need to decide what to do with that money. […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 4): 28 March 2024
US Markets started the week slowly with a small pullback at the beginning of the week but finished the holiday-shortened week with a recovery and closing about 0.25% higher than last week’s close: However, we are still hovering at that 5200-5220 level that is providing some resistance to possible moves higher – at least in […]
Tentative Asset Allocation Model
Asset Allocation is a popular investing model when it comes to constructing a portfolio. What asset classes to include and what percentage of each asset is open for debate and discussion. In the follow example, titled ITA-AA, I’ve selected ten asset classes that come from two sources, Mebane Faber and David Swensen. As readers can […]
Bullish Percent Indicators: 29 March 2024
Just as one sunny day does not constitute a summer, nor does one strong market day speak well for an entire week. Not all indexes and sectors of the market moved up this week as one might have anticipated. Two of the seven indexes reverted to the bearish side of the equation as did two […]
Copernicus Portfolio Review: 29 March 2024
Passive investing is the name of the game with the Copernicus portfolio. The philosophy of the Copernicus is to purchase U.S. Equity ETFs when cash is available and to never sell unless there is an emergency. One major advantage to a no-sell model is that it has definite tax benefits. Copernicus Security Holdings Below is […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 3): 22 March 2024
US Equities finally poked their head above the ~5200 resistance level where they have been sitting for the past couple of weeks: now we wait to see whether we get a continuation of the bullish trend or a pullback to at least the bottom of the channel (that would probably be healthy). In terms of […]
