Bethe is a portfolio managed using a simplified version of the Asset Allocation (AA) model. It is much too early to know how this truncated AA model will work during volatile markets. As readers will see in a moment, I am holding a much larger percentage in a short-term treasury ETF (SHV) than normal as […]
Bethe Asset Allocation Portfolio Simplified: 14 March 2025
Bethe is undergoing a further simplification. This time narrowing the number of assets to five Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) and most likely down to four as VTI will eventually be sold out of the portfolio.
Bethe Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 25 February 2025
Bethe is a rather new Asset Allocation portfolio and as such has a long way to go before the various asset classes are in balance.

As with the other AA portfolios, the Bethe is diversified widely across the globe using both equities and bonds. The portfolio includes […]
Bethe Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 6 November 2024
Bethe is another Asset Allocation portfolio that is approaching a balanced state. Since there is a 90% overlap in stocks held in VTI and VOO, I placed a Trailing Stop Loss Order of 3% for VTI. Inflation is currently not a problem so a TSLO of 1% is in place for TIP. Once cash available […]
Bethe Portfolio Review: 15 October 2024
Bethe is scheduled for an update this morning. I may have mentioned in a comment that I plan to simplify the Asset Allocation portfolios. More on this in a bit. If you Google building a portfolio using Asset Allocation (AA) you will find a wide array of suggestions. Many are quite useful so one can […]
