Gauss, a former Relative Momentum portfolio, is the Sector BPI Model account up for review or update this morning. When I update a Sector BPI portfolio I collect the most recent Bullish Percent Indicator data possible. That was very important this morning as Energy (VDE) moved above the 30% threshold or what is the over-sold […]
Carson Portfolio Review: 9 January 2023
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 […]
Darwin Portfolio Review: 6 January 2023
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 […]
Huygens Portfolio Review: 9 January 2023
Huygens is one of the income portfolios that is constructed around Closed-End-Funds. It is best to use this approach with tax deferred accounts as much of the growth is tied to dividends. This is a relative new investing model here at ITA and as such the model is under performance notice. In other words, I […]
Kahneman-Tversky Portfolio Review: 9 January, 2023
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. […]
Millikan Portfolio Update: 10 January 2023
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 […]
Hawking Portfolio Review: 10 January, 2023
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 […]
Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 11 January 2023
Looking for a passive portfolio where you do nothing but save? The Schrodinger is the portfolio for you. Schwab calls these “Intelligent Portfolios.” I refer to them as Robo Advisor portfolios as they are managed by computer. The owner of the Schrodinger does nothing except invest more cash when available. The Schwab computer performs all […]
