The Darwin Portfolio is a “Buy-And-Hold” portfolio of assets that is only adjusted when allocations fall out-of-line with recommendations based on risk parity (i.e. equal risk on all holdings). Performance to date (~4 months from inception) looks like this: or, in stacked format: because of the adjustments these plots are a little difficult to follow […]
Hawking Portfolio Review: 6 April 2023
The Hawking Portfolio is, essentially, a Buy-And-Hold Portfolio designed to generate Income from investments in Closed End Funds (CEFs). This class of Funds were hit quite hard over the past month: although the dividends generated by the Funds is still keeping portfolio returns ahead of the benchmark AOR Fund. Being an Income Fund the only […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 4): 14 April 2023
US equities were up ~1% from last week’s close: and closed just outside the upper 2 SD boundary of the longer term downtrend channel. However, price is at the 50% retracement level of the peak-trough range of this channel that has provided significant support and resistance in the past. We really need to take out […]

Portfolio Performance Comparisons: 5 May 2023
It has been a month since I last posted portfolio performance data. Since early April all the portfolios improved slightly, but still retain the effects of a poor equities market in 2022. The launch date of 1/2/2022 is selected so as to incorporate the newest portfolios. Even so, the development of the Sector BPI Plus […]
Darwin Portfolio Review: 5 May 2023
Adjustments to the Darwin Portfolio are not rigorously scheduled since they are designed to maintain Risk Parity, are usually minor, and I prefer to keep trading costs to a minimum. Here’s how the Portfolio has performed since I changed to a 3% per asset volatility risk target in November 2022: or, in stacked format: A […]
