Canyonland National Park Over the last few weeks I’ve been setting Trailing Stop Loss Orders (TSLOs) for VTI, VOO, and SCHG when portfolios holding these securities come up for review. The tariff wars are causing market uncertainty, but tariffs are not the only reason for setting TSLOs. Erratic administration behavior only exacerbates an overbought market. […]
Millikan Portfolio Review: 1 May 2025
Headline news this morning – “Trump’s tariffs have left businesses in a ‘state of near paralysis’.” Advanced planning is nearly impossible do to an erratic administration that is in the hands of one person. A person who was not even able to make casinos a success. Based on a rough economic market ahead I have […]
McClintock Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 29 April 2025
McClintock is one of three portfolios managed using the Sector BPI model. The other two are the Carson and Franklin, named after Rachel and Rosalind respectively. During the recent market declines numerous sectors dropped into the oversold zone. In other words, many sectors ended up with 30% or fewer bullish stock within the sector. When […]
Bullish Percent Indicators: 17 April 2025
Most weeks there is so little market action among the major sectors and indexes that updating the Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) data is unnecessary. Tariff uncertainty is roiling the markets to where updating is meaningful. The two tables below examine what is happening to seven major U.S. Equity markets and eleven sectors that make up […]
Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 11 April 2025
Schrodinger is the gold standard when it comes to passive investing. This portfolio answers the question, “Who will manage the family portfolio when I die?” This style portfolio goes by several titles. The general classification is Robo Advisor where the portfolio is managed by computer. Eventually I expect Artificial Intelligence will be or is currently […]
Bullish Percent Indicators: 11 April 2025
Based on the high volatility of the U.S. Equities market this week I thought it expedient to post the latest Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) data. For those not familiar with BPI graphs, it is an entirely different way to plot price movements of stocks, ETFs, or in this case market indexes and market sectors. The […]

Huygens Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 11 April 2025
Huygens is one of numerous portfolios managed using the time tested Asset Allocation approach. While different asset classes or even different securities might be used, the basic approach is to diversify across the globe. Readers see this is the plan for the Huygens. We have domestic and international stock and bonds. Real Estate is diversified […]
Carson Portfolio Update: 10 April 2025
The following data was scheduled for publication at least one day ago, but I was distracted due to the market plunge. This portfolio is the oldest of the Sector BPI portfolios, but it has not been through a volatile market such as we have experienced over the last few days. As I mentioned when […]
Franklin Portfolio Update: 8 April 2025
Stay the course. Stick with the investment plan. That is the advice I am following with the Franklin Sector BPI portfolio in this update. Shares of SHV were sold to raise cash in order to populate the sectors currently in the oversold zone. Today’s strong market is most likely a “dead cat bounce.” Market action […]
