July 27, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

US equities continued their steady climb to new all-time highs this week with the SPX (S&P 500 Index) closing ~1.5% higher than last week’s Close: The next potential resistance level might come somewhere in the 6450-6500 range between the 1.236 Fibonacci extension level and the psychologically significant 6500 “round number”. From there we would wait […]

Dirac Portfolio Review: 11 July 2025

July 14, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

Last week I introduced my revamped Dirac Portfolio that will, roughly, follow the same systems/methodologies as the Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio but with a quiver dedicated only to US markets with no diversification outside of these markets.

This was to be a re-build portfolio project based on using an “Income” model, similar to the Hawking Portfolio, but designed to adopt a mean reversion rather than momentum […]

US Equities pushed higher this week, despite geopolitical uncertainties, and closed the week ~ 3.5% higher than last week’s close after testing the important 6100 level in the SPX (S&P 500 Index) and breaking out to new all-time highs:
