Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 2): 11 March 2022

March 12, 2022 By HedgeHunter Leave a Comment

Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 2): 11 March 2022 1

Opera House, Sydney Harbor, Australia

US Equities maintained their high volatility over the last week – primarily as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine – and closed the week ~3% lower than last week’s close:

Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 2): 11 March 2022 2The downward channel, as defined by the recent highest highs (heavy aqua line) and lowest lows (heavy red line), is narrowing and it looks as though the possibility of completing a Gartley pattern to the upside (D3) is missed and the possibility of completing an ABCD pattern to the downside is more likely.

The performance of other asset classes was very different from recent performance:

The impact of this on the performance of the Rutherford portfolio is shown below:

Over the past month, the Rutherford portfolio (heavy red line) has significantly outperformed the benchmark AOR Fund (heavy dark blue line) with even the poorest performing tranche, Tranche 2 (the focus of this week’s review), catching up to the benchmark and compensating for the opportunities missed resulting from the use of TSLOs in 2021.

Current holdings in the portfolio look like this:

Checking on current rankings and recommendations from the BHS model:

For a clearer picture we can take a look at the rotation graphs:

Recommendations from a rotation model:

With ~$4,500 in Cash I need to decide whether to continue to hold in Cash or to add shares of existing or new funds. With a small holding in VNQ and positive HA signals I will choose to hold on to these shares and I will use the available cash to add shares of TIP that, while not a recommended Buy is only lacking a positive signal from the short-term HA3 indicator to “flip the switch”. My adjusted positions (in Tranche 2) should therefore look something like this:
