Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 3): 3 March 2023
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
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 […]

In addition to Valentine’s Day, today is the 15th anniversary of the launch of ITA Wealth Management. Investing evolution is evident since my first blog back in 2008.

Huygens Portfolio Review: 9 February 2023
As one of three income oriented portfolios, the Huygens turned in an excellent January with a gain in excess of 11.0%. I don’t anticipate this increase will continue. This review or update will show a few necessary changes as two Closed-End-Funds (CEFs) are not meeting the yield requirement. Huygens Investment Quiver Since the last review […]
Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio Review: 3 February 2023
The Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio is a simple Dual Momentum Portfolio that needs little management/adjustment. It is split into two portions – one that is relatively slow in reacting to changes in market conditions – the Kahneman portion – and one that reacts a little more quickly (but may be more subject to whipsaw trades) – the […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 4): 3 February 2023
