Hawking Portfolio Review: 3 October, 2025

October 5, 2025 By hedgehunter 1 Comment

It has been 3 months since I last reported on the performance of the Hawking Portfolio – basically because it is essentially a “Buy-And-Hold” portfolio of Closed-End-Funds (CEFs) that pay out high monthly distributions/dividends and requires very little attention. In my last review I outlined why it is sometimes difficult to analyze these funds since […]

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio Review: 3 October 2025

October 5, 2025 By hedgehunter 1 Comment

Another bullish week in US equities with the SPX (S&P 500 Index) hitting more new all-time highs and closing the week a little over 1% higher than last week’s close:

Millikan Portfolio Review: 3 October 2025

October 3, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Readers will find a slight modification of the Asset Allocation for the Millikan portfolio.  While there is still quite a bit of cash available, I will be putting it to use (slowly) over the next several months.  Additional explanations below. Millikan Asset Allocation Holdings I noticed some errors in the dividend column.  That will be […]

Einstein Portfolio Review: 30 September 2025

October 1, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Einstein is an Asset Allocation portfolio that is in a rebuilding phase.  As readers will recall, assets from this portfolio were required for educational purposes.  Money was withdrawn at a time when the market was moving up so positive growth opportunity was lost.  For a young investor this is an important lesson to learn. Many […]

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio Review: 26 September 2025

September 29, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

This week saw a small ~0.25% pullback in US Equity markets (S&P 500 Index) but we are still consolidating at the ~6500 level:

Millikan Preparation for 2026

September 27, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

As we approach the fourth quarter of 2025 I will be setting up portfolios for 2026.  The outlook is less promising for the coming year compared to 2025 so a more conservative approach makes sense.  The new asset allocation for the Millikan is designed to be a tad more recession proof compared to the previous […]

McClintock Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 26 September 2025

September 26, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Little has changed since the recent recommendation to purchase shares in Consumer Staples.  VDC is the Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) that covers this sector of the U.S. Equities market.  I recently purchased 15 shares of VDC as Consumer Staples dropped below the 30% Bullish Percent Indicator line.  If you are a new ITA reader or […]

Schrodinger Portfolio Update: 25 September 2025

September 25, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Schrodinger had an excellent August with a 3.5% return on investments.  This computer manage portfolio is performing very well as readers will see as they read through this blog.  Should we see a recession in 2026 it will be interesting to see how this Robo Advisor portfolio responds to a draw-down. Schrodinger Asset Allocations Below […]

Huygens Portfolio Update: 24 September 2024

September 24, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Huygens is a typical Asset Allocation portfolio that is currently in balance.  At this point all the investor needs to do is keep the various asset classes close to target when dividends provide sufficient cash to make the adjustments.  Huygens is classified as a passive portfolio as is the Schrodinger. The Huygens is roughly 75% […]

Einstein Portfolio Update: 23 September 2025

September 23, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Einstein is the portfolio up for review this morning and it is undergoing extensive asset allocation adjustments.  The performance of this portfolio is not up to “snuff” as the owner needed cash for tuition.  Rebuilding Einstein is now underway so I expect fresh dollars to be added nearly every month.  It is much easier to […]
