Millikan Portfolio Review: 20 January 2023

January 20, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Millikan is one of the newest Sector BPI Model portfolios.  As a result, you will see two “holdover” securities, VWO and VEA, still part of the portfolio.  I have 3% TSLOs set for both ETFs so it likely will not be too long before both are sold out of the Millikan. The black cloud hanging […]

Bullish Percent Indicators: 13 January 2023

January 14, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Friday, the 13th of January, brings changes to those managing a Sector BPI portfolio.  Energy, Financial, and Real Estate all moved into the over-bought zone this week.  All major indexes are bullish.  None of the indexes penetrated the over-bought zone, but the NASDAQ is getting close.  We see a big percentage jump in Technology which […]

Hawking Portfolio Review: 10 January, 2023

January 11, 2023 By hedgehunter

The Hawking Portfolio is a Buy-and-Hold “Income” Portfolio built from Closed-End-Funds (CEFs) paying high yields (>8%) and, generally, selling at a discount (at least at the time of purchase). The composition of the current portfolio looks like this: with performance over the past 2 years looking like this: i.e. returns have stayed consistently ahead of […]

Millikan Portfolio Update: 10 January 2023

January 10, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Millikan, one of four Sector BPI portfolios, is the model up for review this morning.  This portfolio previously was managed using the BHS/Relative Momentum model and was not performing as expected.  I just checked and it ranked #14 based on IRR data and is now #8.  There are a number of portfolios grouped close together […]

Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio Review: 9 January, 2023

January 10, 2023 By hedgehunter

We start off the New Year with the following picture of performance for the Kahneman-Tversky (K-T) Portfolio through 2022: The portfolio showed less volatility than the benchmark AOR Fund but returns were slightly lower with a ~16% draw-down on the year. This compares with a drop of ~19% in US equities over the same period. […]

Darwin Portfolio Review: 6 January 2023

January 9, 2023 By hedgehunter

The Darwin Portfolio is a relatively inert portfolio in that all assets in the portfolio quiver are held continuously (Buy-and-Hold) in allocations designed to keep the risk from each asset at defined levels as calculated from volatility measurements over time. Throughout most of 2022 I had this risk level set to a rather high level […]

Carson Portfolio Review: 9 January 2023

January 8, 2023 By Lowell Herr

With no Bullish Percent Indicators positioned in either the over-bought or over-sold zones, I could have skipped this update of the Carson.  No changes are required at this time.  There is one change in the Sector BPI model that I’ll explain in a moment and it has to do with how one determines the maximum […]

Bullish Percent Indicators: 6 January 2023

January 7, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Bullish Percent Indicators for this first week in January indicate no sectors are over-sold.  Technology move above the 30% bullish line yesterday as it was the lone over-sold sector on Thursday.  If you are managing a Sector BPI portfolio and using end-of-week data, you will do nothing this week.  Follow along. Index BPI Overall, the […]

Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio Review: 30 December, 2022

January 1, 2023 By hedgehunter

The Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio, that uses the simplest Dual Momentum (DM) model to select one asset from a basket of three, did not perform particularly well in 2022: closing down ~18.4% on the year. While this is slightly less than the ~20% drop in value of US equities over the same period it does not beat […]
