Buying Guidelines For BPI Model Portfolios: 9 December 2022

December 9, 2022 By Lowell Herr

BPI Model buying guidelines.  Two of the sixteen portfolios I track here on the ITA blog are now managed using the Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) Model.  They are:  Carson and Franklin.  Thus far there have been few buying opportunities as the U.S. Equities market is in a mini-bull phase.  It may turn into a full […]

January 5, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Franklin is another Sector BPI portfolio and one I would have passed over this week were it not for a recommended change.  Follow along with the logic below.

Franklin Portfolio Update: 12 January 2023

January 12, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Updating the BPI sector data this morning I find all sector ETFs continue to reside between the 30% and 70% bullish zones although Energy (VDE) is approaching the 70% bullish zone.  Another one or two good days and it will be necessary to place a 3% TSLO on VDE.

Franklin Portfolio Review: 19 January 2023

January 18, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Franklin shed 40 shares of Energy (VDE) this morning as the market plunged lower.  In the following Sector BPI Model readers will see how well the Franklin is performing with respect to its benchmark. Tomorrow I will check in on another Sector BPI portfolio to see if the selloff moved any of sectors into the […]

Franklin Portfolio Review: 26 January 2023

January 26, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Franklin is one of the newer Sector BPI portfolios having moved from the Dual Momentum™ model over to the Sector BPI model as I was not pleased with the DM performance.

Franklin Portfolio Review: 2 February 2023

February 2, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Welcome to Ground Hog Day.  Franklin is the portfolio scheduled for review and if you recall, the Franklin was a lagging Dual Momentum portfolio that I switched over to the Sector BPI model.  Time will tell as to whether this was a wise move. Since no moves are recommended, this review is short and sweet.

Franklin Portfolio Review: 8 February 2023

February 8, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Franklin is the Sector BPI portfolio up for review this morning and few changes, if any, are recommended as there are no sectors in the buy or over-sold zone.  As you recall from the most recent BPI data, several sectors are in the over-bought zone, of which none are current Franklin holdings.  The primary decision […]

Franklin Portfolio Review: 23 February 2023

February 23, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Looking back eight or nine months ago the Franklin was trailing its benchmark (AOA).  Since that time the Franklin has pulled ahead of the benchmark, partially due to moving from the Dual Momentum™ model to the Sector BPI model.  Will this trend continue is the cogent question? If interested in the Sector BPI model, follow […]
