Carson Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 25 March 2026

March 25, 2026 By Lowell Herr 2 Comments

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

March 23, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

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

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 […]

McClintock Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 13 March 2026

March 13, 2026 By Lowell Herr 3 Comments

McClintock is a Sector BPI portfolio that has been operating under this management style for nearly 29 months.  In this review we will check the performance over this period and look at how well it had done since 12/31/2021 or the launch date of the youngest ITA portfolio.  The Sector BPI investing model began as […]

Portfolio Hedging

March 12, 2026 By hedgehunter 1 Comment

Warning: This post is likely of no direct interest to most readers of this Blog – it is written for education and interest only, and outlines one of the potential advantages of using Options for portfolio insurance. These are nervous times and we should be concerned about preserving our hard-earned wealth in the months ahead. […]

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 11 March 2026

March 11, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

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

March 5, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

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

March 3, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

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

February 26, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

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 […]

Schrodinger Portfolio Update: 24 February 2026

February 24, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

We begin the last week of February with an update of the Schrodinger, the single Robo Advisor portfolio tracked here on the ITA blog.  The Schrodinger has been operating for approximately 8.5 years.  I use a start date of 12/31/2021 in order to compare the performance with much younger portfolios. Over the past four plus […]
