Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio Review: 4 April 2025

April 7, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

It was a brutal week in just about all major markets with the SPX losing a little over 9% from last week’s close – most of this within the last 2 days of the week with concerns over the effects that tariffs might have on the cost of living and the economy generally:

Bullish Percent Indicators: 4 April 2025

April 5, 2025 By Lowell Herr 5 Comments

“Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.” – H. L. Menckken In all the years I’ve been tracking the Bullish Percent Indicators (BPI), as shown below, I never witnessed such a precipitous drop in prices as we experienced the last two trading […]

Bohr Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 4 April 2025

April 4, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Individual-1’s tariffs are the self-inflicted decisions driving down the market or should I say, markets. Global markets are also taking a major hit.  Rather then telling readers what to do, read on and see what I am doing as different portfolios come up for review.  This morning I am updating the Bohr portfolio, one of […]

Einstein Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 2 April 2025

April 2, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Einstein is up for review this morning.  This portfolio sports a simplified asset allocation model in that it holds only four securities and one (SHV) is included primarily as an interest bearing cash holding tank.

Kepler Simplified Asset Allocation Portfolio: 31 March 2025

March 31, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Kepler is nearly in balance with the simplified asset allocation model.  The asset allocation is very close to the Bogle Three ETF model.  Instead of bonds I am using SCHD and SHV.  In place of international equities I am using SCHG for a bit more growth.  Another change is the percentage invested in each asset […]

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 28 March 2025

March 28, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

With this portfolio review of the Copernicus comes a few adjustments.  I am adding SCHD to the existing asset classes and altering the recommended percentages to invest in each.  No plans are in the works to sell off any securities that are over target.  Instead, new cash and dividends will be used to gradually build […]

Pauling Portfolio Review: 27 March 2025

March 27, 2025 By Lowell Herr 2 Comments

Pauling is one of the portfolios where I am simplifying or reducing the number of asset classes down to four.  One of the four, SHV, is a holding tank for cash when none of the other three are calling for a Buy.  I’ll explain this in more detail below as I go through the March […]

McClintock Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 25 March 2025

March 25, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Before updating the McClintock, a brief word about the current Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) data.  All sectors are bullish with exception of Utilities and Real Estate.  No sectors currently held in any of the portfolios are in the overbought zone and there are no sectors oversold.  Therefore, no changes are recommended at this time. The […]

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio Review: 21 March 2025

March 23, 2025 By hedgehunter 3 Comments

It was a week of sideways consolidation in US equity markets with the SPX (S&P 500 Index) closing slightly (~0.5%) higher than last week’s close after a small bounce off support at 5520. However, volume was average so there is no evidence of strong institutional buying or selling – maybe we will see a little […]
