It has been 3 months since I last reported on the performance of the Hawking Portfolio – basically because it is essentially a “Buy-And-Hold” portfolio of Closed-End-Funds (CEFs) that pay out high monthly distributions/dividends and requires very little attention. In my last review I outlined why it is sometimes difficult to analyze these funds since […]
Hawking Portfolio Review: 1 August 2025
Normally there is not a lot for me to say in my reviews of the Hawking Portfolio because I like to try to keep it as a low maintainance (close to Buy-And-Hold) portfolio that generates steady monthly income at a predicable 8-12% level. This is achieved through a selection of diversified Closed-End-Funds (CEFs) or ETFs. […]
Hawking Portfolio Review: 14 July 2025
The Hawking Portfolio does not require a lot of attention as it is designed more as a Buy-And-Hold Portfolio to generate “Income” rather than to rely primarily on “growth” as required in more common equity portfolios. Although there may be exceptions to this, depending on how closely an investor might choose to monitor his or […]
Hawking Portfolio Review: 11 May, 2025
The Hawking “Income” Portfolio does not require an excess level of attention to manage – it is simply a matter of re-investing dividends/distributions as they become available. With the pullback in prices since the last review in January it has been possible to pick up new shares at lower prices that should help going forward […]
Hawking Portfolio Review: 8 January, 2025
Not a lot of action here as this is essentially a Buy-And-Hold Portfolio with a re-investment of dividends ($2,000+ since the last review). Current holdings look like this: with an anticipated 12% annual yield – or over $1,000 per month “income” from dividends. Performance of the portfolio since inception in December 2020 (4 years) looks […]
Hawking Portfolio Review: 1 November, 2024
It has been three months since I last reviewed the Hawking Portfolio and it has continued to churn out over $1,000 per month in dividends/distributions. The portfolio is essentially a Buy-and-Hold portfolio, although some actions might be taken that could benefit the performance of the portfolio (see below for an example). Current holdings in the […]
Hawking Portfolio Review: 2 August, 2024
July dividend distrubutions are in and ~$1,000+ “Income” is available for re-investment since I don’t need the “income”. Current holdings in the portfolio look like this: and, with the recent pullback I shall be looking for assets that are presently under-allocated and, maybe, ready to bounce so as to add a few more shates. I […]
Hawking Portfolio Review: 5 June, 2024
The Hawking Portfolio is a High Yield “Income” portfolio that requires only a modest amount of attention other than to re-invest dividends so as to generate geometric “growth”. Since the portfolio generates ~$1,000 per month and I had over $3,000 sitting in cash I have added additional shares to three holdings in the portfolio – […]
