On 24 March I added the following comment to my Portfolio Hedging Post of 20 March (https://itawealth.com/portfolio-hedging/): “With the drop in the SPX I have added another risk reversal to my hedge position by buying the 6400/6395 Put Spread and financing this by selling the 6800/6805 Call Spread for a net credit of 0.60 or […]
Carson Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 25 March 2026
Carson is the oldest Sector BPI portfolio, now in operation for approximately 3.5 years. We are beginning to build a historical base for this investing model. Four sectors are currently residing in the oversold zone while two others are very close to the Buy zone. Investors following this model are recommended to purchase shares of […]
Schrodinger Robo Advisor Portfolio Review: 23 March 2026
Passive is the name of the game with the Schrodinger portfolio. This computer managed portfolio is housed at Schwab and is known as an “Intelligent Portfolio.” Thus far it has been quite intelligent. The update of prices are not reflected in the first screenshot below. The portfolio is valued at over $164,000 and the owner […]
Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 20 March 2026
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 […]

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 11 March 2026
Copernicus is the equity portfolio scheduled for review this morning. Based on an over priced U.S. stock market I shifted the emphasis slightly, moving from the S&P 500 (VOO) over to several dividend oriented ETFs. Below you see a significant percentage of the portfolio focusing on VIG, SCHD and VYM. Yes, there will be overlapping […]
Gauss Portfolio Review: 5 March 2026
Gauss is the portfolio up for review today. The owner of this portfolio is not contributing significant amounts of cash each month so the re-balancing will need to come from dividends and interest income. Gauss is a very conservative portfolio as one can see from the low beta value of 0.27. Conservative is defined in […]
Pauling Portfolio Review: 3 March 2026
Pauling is an asset allocation portfolio that is slowly working out of a performance deficit. Over the past few months I have been reworking the asset allocation mix and that work is not quite complete as readers will see in one of the following screenshots. Several asset classes are out of balance or not close […]
Carson Portfolio Review: 26 February 2026
Rachel Carson is the portfolio up for review this morning. As the oldest Sector BPI portfolio I look to this one to see if the sector hypothesis is working out according to plan. Thus far the data is quite positive as readers and followers of the Sector BPI model will soon see. No changes are […]
