Portfolio Management

Two portfolios are constructed and managed here, one for small investors and one for Fund Managers.  The goal is to mildly outperform some main benchmarks over a business cycle (8 yrs?), 9 years, employing North American stocks and global bonds/currencies.  Furthermore, Social Responsible Investing will be maximized.  TKG is a student of B.Graham modified to reflect political and technology shocks.  None of W.Buffett’s management aptitude judgement, but nimbler portfolios.  Deducing growing industries/nations is similiar to W.Buffett's strategy of picking inductively proven earnings growth stability.  $1000000 CAD will be the starting cash for benchmark and Fund Manager portfolios, $10000 will be the poor boy's portfolio, to be multiplied by 100x in 9 years for comparison.  All converted into CAD after 9 years.  Arbitrarily assuming the big portfolios cost $10 CAD a trade and the little portfolio $20 CAD.  Figure out tax rates and what to do with dividends later.  Closing prices will be used.  Minimum and marginal purchase increments are respected.
