McClintock Sector BPI Portfolio Update: 8 April 2026

April 8, 2026 By Lowell Herr 2 Comments

McClintock Sector ETF […]

April 6, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

We begin the week with an easy review.  While waiting for SHV dividends to show up in Bethe I’ll update the Copernicus, an “all equity” portfolio.  The asset allocation make-up of the Copernicus is designed for a young investor with many saving years ahead.  Many saving years might be defined as greater than 10 years […]

Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 20 March 2026

March 20, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Recent market declines kicked several sectors into the oversold zone.  The Franklin ETFs impacted are:  VCR, VDC, VFH, VHT, VIS, and VOX.  When I ran the Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) numbers before the market opened, Industrial registered 31.64 and Consumer Staples was 30.55.  This is why I placed limit orders for VIS and VDC.  Readers […]
