Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 17 November 2023

November 17, 2023 By Lowell Herr

As we review the Franklin, Technology remains the only overbought sector. With a rather flat market this morning it seems unlikely we will see any other sectors rise to the overbought level when the BPI spreadsheet is updated tomorrow. This is a period when we wait on the market for the next upward push.

Tweaking Sector BPI Plus Investing Model: Part II

November 18, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Sufficient additions or modifications have occurred since launching the original Sector BPI investment model that it now makes sense to summarize how one manages these portfolios. Here is the step by step process I go through when I review or update a Sector BPI Plus portfolio. Update the BPI spreadsheet to see if there are […]

McClintock Portfolio Review: 21 November 2023

November 21, 2023 By Lowell Herr

McClintock is another Sector BPI Plus portfolio up for review this morning. No change is required, but if the portfolio held Financials (VFH) I would be placing a 3% Trailing Stop Loss Order (TSLO) under the ETF. Yes, the McClintock holds one share of VFH, but this is insufficient to create a sell order. I […]

Sector BPI Investing: Bohr Portfolio Review – 22 November 2023

November 22, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Bohr is the Sector BPI portfolio scheduled for review this morning. Before making any decisions or moving forward with this update of the Bohr, I checked the Bullish Percent Indicators (BPI) for the eleven market sectors and found no changes. Technology is still overbought and that is the single sector currently residing outside the “neutral” […]

Huygens Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 24 November 2023

November 24, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Sector BPI portfolios have entered a quite period as all sectors with exception of Technology reside in the “neutral” zone. Neutral is defined as Bullish Percent Indicators (BPI) lower then 70% bullish and above 30% bullish. The Huygens portfolio differs only in that it is carrying a high percentage (44%) in cash. Huygens Investment Quiver […]

Carson Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 27 November 2023

November 27, 2023 By Lowell Herr

As the oldest Sector BPI portfolio the Carson is breaking ground in the sense that more data is available to judge this unique investing model. Unique in that I’ve not run across this model and the various ways to manipulate sector ETFs to protect capital. In this review I’ve added two additional screenshots that will […]

Sector BPI Portfolio Report: 27 November 2023

November 27, 2023 By Lowell Herr

For some reason I keep thinking the Sector BPI model is close to two years old. In fact, the Carson Sector BPI model was launched a little over a year ago. A number of ITA portfolios held shares in Real Estate (VNQ) nearly from the very first day this blog began back in 2008. This […]

Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 28 November 2023

November 28, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Franklin is the Sector BPI portfolio up for review this morning. I moved the Franklin from a Dual Momentum™ style portfolio over to the Sector BPI model last February so we are coming up on a year of operation. Keep this in mind when you look over the Risk Ratios data. Since the most recent […]
