Continuing our core strategy.
Our Core Strategy
Our core strategy is to buy equal dollar amounts of the Portfolio Armor web app’s top ten names, put trailing stops of 10%-15% on them, and replace them with names from the current week’s top ten when we get stopped out of a position.
A Top Names Performance Update
Before we get to this week’s top ten names, let’s look at the final, 6-month performance of our top ten names from June 29th.
Top Names, 6/29/2023
A Quick Trading Update Before we get to this week’s top names, a quick options trading update. In general, I usually wait until an options trade fills before posting about it, with two exceptions: If the trade alert includes more than one trade, and one of those trades has filled, I post it as soon as the first one gets filled.
Over the next six months, our top ten names were up 9.37% on average, versus 9.34% for SPY.
That was the 21st top names cohort of 27 since we started this Substack that outperformed the market (PA top ten returns are on the left below; SPY returns on the right).
This Week’s Top Names
Below are Portfolio Armor’s current top ten names as of Thursday’s close.
