McClintock is the portfolio scheduled for review as we open up August. Think of this data current as of July 31 rather than August 1st. Over the past year I’ve consolidated the number of ETF options from nearly 40 down to ten. From the ten I prefer to invest in only five (5) at any […]
Pauling Dual Momentum Portfolio Review: 18 May 2023
In contrast to the Copernicus the Pauling Dual Momentum™ portfolio requires a little more work to manage.

That is the question.

Pauling Dual Momentum Review: 24 March 2023
Pauling is one of two remaining Dual Momentum™ portfolios. Remaining in the sense that I moved two DM portfolios over to the Sector BPI model. The other DM portfolio is the McClintock. Of the seven (7) different investing models explained and tracked here at ITA the Dual Momentum model is the most disappointing. While […]
