Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 12 June 2025

June 12, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

One benefit of Sector BPI portfolios such as the Franklin is that there is a built in capital preservation ingredient inherent in the management model.  While Trailing Stop Loss Orders (TSLOs) may not be ideal, based on historical data, they are working for the three Sector BPI portfolios.  Check portfolios Carson and McClintock for further […]

Einstein Portfolio Review: 11 June 2025

June 11, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Einstein, one of the truncated asset allocation portfolios, is up for review today.  Since the last review shares of SCHG were sold and reinvested in SHV.  The move is designed to protect capital during this period of chaos and uncertainty.  The third and fourth quarters of 2025 will provide more information as to what effect […]

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio Review: 6 June, 2025

June 8, 2025 By hedgehunter 1 Comment

It was a predictable week in US equity markets with the SPX (S&P 500 Index) testing the psychologically important 6000 “round number” level:

Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 5 June 2025

June 6, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

  Near the beginning of each month I generally update the Schrodinger portfolio as it requires no maintenance.  Computers do all the management work as this is a Robo Advisor portfolio housed at Schwab.  All the owner needs to do is save and sit back and let the market do its work.  All I do […]

Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 4 June 2025

June 5, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Franklin is the Sector BPI portfolio up for review.  Included in this blog post is evidence of the viability of the Sector BPI investing model.  Based on all the uncertainty surrounding the current administration I will be making some slight changes in what to do if no sectors are included for investment or if there […]

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio – Restructuring the Management Plan Part 2A: Asset Allocation and Risk Management

June 5, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

In part 2 of this series of posts on how I intend to construct and manage the Rutherford-Darwin portfolio going forward (https://itawealth.com/rutherford-darwin-portfolio-restructuring-the-management-plan-part-2-asset-allocation-and-risk-management/ ) I outlined methods for allocating funds to the portfolio – on the assumption that the relationship between price and volatility was the same for all assets. In that post I analyzed the […]

Bohr Portfolio Review: 4 June 2025

June 4, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

As with several other ITA portfolios, capital preservation is of significant importance to the owner of the Bohr portfolio.  As a result there is a willingness to give up potential returns during these uncertain times.  The on again, off again tariff battle is an anathema to business as it interferes with future planning.  Right now […]

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 2 June 2025

June 2, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

While this review of the Copernicus portfolio occurs in June, the data more appropriately belongs to May.  Take that into consideration as you read this update.  As followers of this portfolio know, this is a passive portfolio that focuses on investing only in U.S. Equities and is limited to large-cap stocks that track the S&P […]

May 31, 2025 By Lowell Herr 8 Comments

Thanks to Lee Cash, more information is available when it comes to identifying which CEFs to include in a portfolio.  Below are the two primary screens I will be using in the future to aid in the selection of CEFs. The first Internet source [CEF Connect] is one we have been using to identify the […]
