Model Portfolio - Day 2

The portfolio had a great day. We were up over 3%, with big days on no news from Scott’s, Matrix, and Novagold.

With a 2 day outperformance of 4%, we really should sell everything, buy an index fund, and call it a year.

This has been almost a perfect “January Effect”. There used to be a dramatic outperformance of small cap stocks in the first few weeks of January. The effect has declined in recent years, but seems to have come roaring back in 2023.

I guess I really should find a group of indices to compare the performance against.

Actually the Morningstar model portfolio page does a good job with this, I need to learn more.
