Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 2): 24 November 2023

November 26, 2023 By hedgehunter

It was a relatively quiet week in US markets as many investors celebrated Thanksgiving: The SPX is still sitting below the resistance zone at ~4600 that we really need to see broken before the recent uptrend channel can be considered sustainable. Most other markets/asset classes were also quiet, leaving US equities near the top of […]

Bullish Percent Indicators: 24 November 2023

November 25, 2023 By Lowell Herr

This was a good, but not stellar week for U. S. Equities.  Nearly every index and sector Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) either gained or held steady this week.  The one major change happened in the Financial sector as it moved into the overbought zone.  This will require attention in those portfolios that might be holding […]

Huygens Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 24 November 2023

November 24, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Sector BPI portfolios have entered a quite period as all sectors with exception of Technology reside in the “neutral” zone.  Neutral is defined as Bullish Percent Indicators (BPI) lower then 70% bullish and above 30% bullish.  The Huygens portfolio differs only in that it is carrying a high percentage (44%) in cash. Huygens Investment Quiver […]

Sector BPI Investing: Bohr Portfolio Review – 22 November 2023

November 22, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Bohr is the Sector BPI portfolio scheduled for review this morning.  Before making any decisions or moving forward with this update of the Bohr, I checked the Bullish Percent Indicators (BPI) for the eleven market sectors and found no changes.  Technology is still overbought and that is the single sector currently residing outside the “neutral” […]

Reworking Pauling Portfolio: 20 November 2023

November 20, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Based on discussions found in the Comment section of the most recent BPI blog post, below is an investment quiver that may be the future of the Sector BPI Plus portfolios.  What I’ve done is to add eleven sector ETFs where these new eleven are equal-weight index securities rather than cap-weighted.  If readers wish to […]

Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 1): 17 November 2023

November 19, 2023 By hedgehunter

After Tuesday’s strong breakout to the upside, US Equities calmed down into consolidation mode but ended the week up ~2.5% from last week’s close: I think we can say that we have broken out of the downtrend channel that we have experienced over the past 3 months and may be gearing up for Santa’s rally […]

Tweaking Sector BPI Plus Investing Model: Part II

November 18, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Sufficient additions or modifications have occurred since launching the original Sector BPI investment model that it now makes sense to summarize how one manages these portfolios.  Here is the step by step process I go through when I review or update a Sector BPI Plus portfolio. Update the BPI spreadsheet to see if there are […]

Copernicus Portfolio Update: 14 November 2023

November 14, 2023 By Lowell Herr

From one of the poorest portfolio performers (Kepler) we now shift to one of the best performers.  In addition, no particular skills are needed to manage the Copernicus, the portfolio up for review today.  Copernicus is the portfolio I highly recommend for those working full-time and have only a few minutes per month to pay […]

Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 4): 10 November 2023

November 12, 2023 By hedgehunter

US equity markets started the week quietly but showed more volatility towards the end of the week closing up modestly from last week’s close: Although we closed slightly above resistance (and the prior high) at ~4400 we are still within the 2SD boundary of the downtrend channel – so I am not ready to call […]

Improving the Sector BPI Investing Model

November 6, 2023 By Lowell Herr

If you were paying attention to the last screenshot of the Bethe review earlier this morning, you noticed that VTI was a negative contributing factor to portfolio performance while VOO added little to the IRR value.  Only ESGV played an important role and that was likely due to the period when it was part of […]
