Bethe is the asset allocation portfolio schedule for an update this morning.  This portfolio is undergoing a few changes in the asset makeup as I am setting this portfolio up, as well as several others, to withstand a potential market correction.  As currently constructed the Bethe is holding too many shares of SCHD, based on […]

Exactly 10 years ago the Bethe was launched.  To permit performance comparisons among the various ITA portfolios 12/31/2021 is the launch date as it was late 2021 when the youngest portfolio began.

Bethe is another portfolio built around the idea Financial Repression is in the future and needs to be faced and taken into account through portfolio construction.  In the second screenshot you will see the current portfolio beta is very low.  This simply means as currently constructed, the Bethe will move up or down approximately 1/3 […]

Bethe Portfolio Review: 9 April 2026

April 9, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment
