Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 8 May 2025

May 8, 2025 By Lowell Herr 2 Comments

Franklin is one of three portfolios using the Sector BPI management model.  The other two are:  Carson and McClintock.  The Sector BPI model is not designed for all investors as it requires some tracking and a bit of effort.  If looking for simplicity, check out the Schrodinger and Copernicus portfolios. With the sector model we […]

“Markets can remain irrational a lot longer than you and I can remain solvent.” – John Maynard Keynes This update of the Franklin portfolio is a followup to the Bullish Percent Indicator data published earlier this morning.  Technology joins the oversold sectors which now numbers four.  When the Individual-1 tariffs are in place expect more […]

Franklin Portfolio Review: 31 January 2025

January 31, 2025 By Lowell Herr

Franklin is the Sector BPI portfolio up for review this last day of January.  Of the portfolios I track here on the ITA investment blog, the Sector BPI investing model requires the most attention to details.  Even so, it is a rather simple investing approach to portfolio management.  At the bottom of this blog are […]

Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 30 December 2024

December 30, 2024 By Lowell Herr

Franklin is the final scheduled portfolio review for 2024.  Instead of a Santa Clause rally we appear to merit only lumps of coal.  Is the market “girding its loins” for four years of chaos?  As I mentioned some time ago, we are likely to see some buying opportunities in the near future.  Several limit orders […]

Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 26 November 2024

November 26, 2024 By Lowell Herr

Franklin is one of five Sector BPI portfolios with a current holding of one sector ETF, VDE or Energy.  This morning I checked the Bullish Percent Indicator for Energy and it is holding steady at 63.63% bullish.  When Energy reaches the 70% bullish mark I will place a 3% Trailing Stop Loss Order (TSLO) under […]

Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio: 17 October 2024

October 17, 2024 By Lowell Herr

It has been nearly two years since the Franklin portfolio began using the Sector BPI investing model.  Over this period the portfolio managed to keep pace with the S&P 500 (SPY) index, a major goal for these Sector BPI portfolios. Since the last review shares of VCR and VDC were sold out of the portfolio […]
