Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 15 March 2023

March 14, 2023 By Lowell Herr

One of two reference portfolios is the Schrodinger.  The other is the Copernicus.  Were one to lose all spreadsheets and access to databases, these two different investing models would survive and serve the investor quite well.  As for the term reference, I compare all the other portfolios tracked here at ITA with the Schrodinger as […]

Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 4): 10 March 2023

March 11, 2023 By hedgehunter

It was a brutal week in the US equity markets with stocks down ~5% on the week: This has taken us below the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) and other potential support levels at ~3940 and back into the 1 SD downtrend channel that started at the bebinning of the year. This suggests a possible […]

Hawking Portfolio Review: 3 March, 2023

March 5, 2023 By hedgehunter

The Hawking Portfolio is an “Income” portfolio built from Closed-End-Funds (CEFs). As such, it requires very little management, other than to re-invest any dividends paid, except for occasional reviews to check on current yields (min 8% target) and discount/premium to Net Asset Value (NAV). The Portfolio is currently holding 25 CEFs with an estimated annual […]

Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio Review: 3 March 2023

March 4, 2023 By hedgehunter

The Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio is a simple Dual Momentum (DM) Portfolio that needs little adjustment/management. The choice is to invest in only one of three ETFs or move to Cash (or SHY). The only “complexity” comes from the fact that the portfolio is split into two portions that use different look-back periods to measure Momentum. Performance […]

Darwin Portfolio Review: 3 March 2023

March 4, 2023 By hedgehunter

The Darwin Portfolio is a risk-adjusted allocation model with volatility targeting used to determine how many shares of each asset to hold. The portfolio holds only 5 conventional, but diversified, asset classes plus a 10% holding in a volatility product (depending on whether volatility is expected to increase or decrease) as a portfolio hedge. A […]

Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 3): 3 March 2023

March 4, 2023 By hedgehunter

Two really bullish days at the end of the week resulted in a ~2% gain in US Equities as measured by the S&P 500 Index: Although support at 3940 was tested at the beginning of the week there wasn’t enough bearish sentiment to push prices below this level and now, maybe, we are heading back […]

Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 2): 24 February 2023

February 25, 2023 By hedgehunter

As we approach the end of February we see that the apparent recovery in US equities may not be as strong as we may have thought. This week saw another drop of ~2.7% in the SPX (S&P 500 Index) from last week’s close and we are now up only 3.4% on the year after hitting […]

Bullish Percent Indicators: 24 February 2023

February 25, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Bullish Percent Indicators are ending February in a downward trend.  All major indexes are bearish, yet none are in the over-sold zone.  We need to check on Sectors to pick up an over-sold condition. Just a short word regarding the above photograph.  This past week Portland experienced the largest snowfall since the 1940s.  Measured at […]

Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 1): 17 February 2023

February 19, 2023 By hedgehunter

My apologies for not posting a Tranche 5 review last week but adjustments were made as reported below. Now that I am back from my travels, with reliable internet connections,  I will get back to my regular posting schedules. US equities closed relatively unchanged from last week’s close and are still sitting at the center […]

February 18, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Earlier this morning I posted BPI data and that information will impact the four Sector BPI portfolios, the Carson being one.  This review will lay out the process I go through when working with a Sector BPI portfolio.  From the BPI data we found two sectors are recommended for purchase and they are, Energy and […]
