Millikan Portfolio Update: 10 January 2023

January 10, 2023 By Lowell Herr

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 […]

Millikan Portfolio Review: 20 January 2023

January 20, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Millikan is one of the newest Sector BPI Model portfolios.  As a result, you will see two “holdover” securities, VWO and VEA, still part of the portfolio.  I have 3% TSLOs set for both ETFs so it likely will not be too long before both are sold out of the Millikan. The black cloud hanging […]

Millikan Portfolio Review: 22 February 2023

February 22, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Millikan is the Sector BPI portfolio up for review today.  If you will recall the BPI data from last week, Utilities (VPU) was found to be in the over-sold zone or below the 30% bullish mark.  Energy (VDE) was so close to over-sold that I considered it to be available for purchase as well.  That […]

Millikan Portfolio Update: 7 March 2023

March 6, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Millikan is the Sector BPI portfolio up for review this morning.  Based on the latest Bullish Percent Indicator data, only Utilities is over-sold so it is essential that sector be fully populated.  As readers will see in a moment Utilities holds the recommended 15% of the total portfolio.

Millikan Portfolio Update: 14 March 2023

March 14, 2023 By Lowell Herr

While the Millikan portfolio is the one I’ll review this morning, this blog post goes into more detail with respect to Bullish Percent Indication graphs and Point and Figure (PnF) graphs for individual sector ETFs.  There may be some confusion and I want to clear this up in this post.

Millikan Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 30 March 2023

March 30, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Millikan is one of four Sector BPI portfolios undergoing testing here at ITA.  March has been a good month for the Millikan as readers will see in a moment.  This month is the first time several sectors dropped into the over-sold zone and the recovery has been positive.  In the short term the Sector BPI […]

Millikan Portfolio Update: 11 April 2023

April 11, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Given the over-bought signal generated yesterday for Utilities (VPU) I wanted to update at least one of the four Sector BPI portfolios to see how well it is performing based on annualized IRR data and risk factors such as the Jensen Performance Index.  Follow along as I walk through an update of the Millikan. Millikan […]

Millikan Portfolio Update: 17 April 2023

April 17, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Millikan is one of the last of the four Sector BPI portfolios to undergo a “mending” of a potential weakness in the original hypothesis.  Since there are no BPI recommendations at present and cash is available, this update will show how that cash might be put to use.
