I have reset the Darwin Portfolio to a $100,000 investment portfolio with small changes to the asset list (“quiver”) and the introduction of a new algorithm for trading in 2026. This post outlines these changes and my plans for managing this portfolio going forward. Background I have now been developing/building systems for investment and trading […]
Schrodinger Portfolio Update: 2 January 2026
Schrodinger is an excellent portfolio to launch this early in 2026 as there is nothing to do except report the results. As mentioned each update of the Robo Advisor or Intelligent Portfolio, all the owner does is add new money to the account each month. Dollar-cost-averaging is the reason this portfolio is performing so well. […]
Carson Sector BPI Portfolio Update: 30 December 2025
Carson is next to the last portfolio to be reviewed in 2025. Tomorrow I will update the Millikan portfolio. The Carson was one of the better performing portfolios during the month of November, indicating once more that the Sector BPI investing model is working as projected by the theory some years ago. No new sectors […]
Gifting a Grandchild
What advice would you give a grandparent who would like to launch a retirement portfolio for one or more grandchildren? To begin the discussion, assume the proposed gift is $25,000. Should it be given as a lump sum or spread out over a period of time? Here are two possible plans one might undertake, depending […]
Copernicus Portfolio Update: 24 December 2025
Merry Christmas Copernicus is the last portfolio up for review before Christmas. The major change is to reduce holdings in VOO and shift the percentage over to RSP. The reason for this move is to reduce exposure to mega-cap stocks that are over-valued and to increase exposure to mid- and small-cap stocks. The “all U.S. […]
Gauss Portfolio Update: 22 December 2025
Gauss is the portfolio up for review this morning and it is undergoing a few asset allocation adjustments. Gauss is one of the better performing portfolios, due in part to no withdrawals since inception a number of years ago. In addition to no withdrawals new cash is added from time to time. This method of […]
Kepler Portfolio Update: 19 December 2025
Kepler is the portfolio up for review this morning. Major asset allocation changes are coming to the Kepler for two reasons. 1) The portfolio has been a poor performer. Therefore adjustments are appropriate 2) The new asset allocation model is designed to be somewhat recession resistant. I say “somewhat” as I don’t think there is […]
Huygens Portfolio Update: 18 December 2025
Huygens is the asset allocation portfolio up for review this morning. This portfolio is set up to “resist” taking too big a hit when the correction or recession sets in sometime over the next 12 to 18 months. A correction or recession is certainly not a sure thing as interest rates will likely drop another […]
McClintock Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 15 December 2025
McClintock is the Sector BPI portfolio up for review this morning. The three Sector BPI portfolios are investment models unique to the ITA blog. For more information on this model, go to the Categories menu found in the right sidebar and look for Sector BPI. While we frequently wait for months between Buy and Sell […]
Copernicus Portfolio Update: 14 December 2025
Copernicus is an equity oriented portfolio designed for young investors or folks who have 10 to 15 years of investing ahead. Investors in retirement who are still able to save a modest amount each month are encouraged to use this asset allocation for at least one portfolio. While the target percentages will vary from investor […]
