Your Access to My Personal Portfolio

April 06, 2026 

Happy Monday! 

I hope you had a wonderful long weekend. 

Q2 didn’t tiptoe in — it’s kicked the door open. 

  • Oil has been front and center. Oil spiked above $110/barrel triggering a global selloff, Dow dropped ~545 points in one session, then the markets ripped higher on ceasefire hopes just days later.
  • Strait of Hormuz disruption. Trump has given Iran a Tuesday nightdeadline to reopen the shipping routes. Trump and his military officials will be holding a press conference shortly.
  • Earnings & CPI are coming in hot, which could determine whether this bounce has legs or if the next leg down is already beginning.

I’ve been through shutdowns, bubbles, recessions, and rallies that no one saw coming. Each time, the traders who stayed grounded in structure (not emotion) came out ahead. 

Watching Opportunity Take Shape 

Right now, my focus is on how money is rotating beneath the surface. Some sectors are cracking under pressure, but others… like industrials and materials (commodities, metals) are powering through. 

The same volatility that scares most investors is what creates opportunity for disciplined traders. 

Inside Schaeffer’s Master Portfolio, I track those transitions in real time. 

Every position I open or close comes with a full explanation of what I’m seeing — technical setups, sector trends, and sentiment shifts. 

You can mirror my trades exactly, pick and choose based on your own comfort level, or simply watch how I manage exposure when markets turn messy.

My approach isn’t about chasing daily headlines or trying to predict short-term swings. It’s about maintaining a clear, disciplined framework that keeps me on the right side of long-term trends. 

That’s what I share every week inside Schaeffer’s Master Portfolio — real positions, real analysis, and the same steady process I’ve relied on for decades. 

Proven Moves in Today’s Market

Several of my current positions are still running strong — a reflection of how disciplined, trend-based investing can pay off when you let winners work: 

  • +201.5% on General Electric (GE)
  • +159.3% on Interactive Brokers Group (IBKR)
  • +473% on GE Vernova (GEV) 

These aren’t quick trades or hypothetical examples. 

They’re current, real holdings inside Schaeffer’s Master Portfolio that showcase how I identify strength early… then let time and structure do the heavy lifting. 

My approach blends the same research-driven principles that have guided Schaeffer’s Investment Research since 1981 — a focus on data, sentiment, and disciplined risk management. 

That process helps me spot opportunity before the mainstream narrative catches up… and it’s the same lens I apply to every move in this portfolio. 

Here’s what’s included: 

  • 24/7 visibility into my live portfolio — even when the market’s closed.
  • Real-time email alerts detailing every new position with ticker, shares, price, and commentary.
  • An average of 10–15 open positions at any time, with 1–2 new setups added monthly.
  • Commentary that explains not just what I’m doing, but why… giving you insight into my long-term decision process. 

Mirror the portfolio exactly, apply your own weightings to fit your goals, or use it as a learning tool to sharpen your own strategy… it’s up to you how you want to use this information. 

Step Into My World For Cheap… 

Normally, to gain access to my portfolio for an entire 12 months, it would cost $995. Right now, I’m offering you the chance to gain access for only $95. 

Plus, I’m throwing in 6 months free. Meaning, that small fee will provide full 24/7 access for the next 18 months.

I don’t open up spots often. Maybe twice a year. Don’t miss it, come join me…

I was born on 6 August 1956 in San Francisco, California to Janet and (the late) Richard Hovis. I grew up in Santa Monica, California where I attended elementary, junior high school, and high school (graduating in 1974), in addition to involvement in sports and recreation (Little League +, the Boy’s Club ++). Further, it was in elementary school – St. Augustine’s By-the -Sea Parish School that I found, and made the choice to truly journey with God. I attended Arizona State University from 1974 to 1977 – seeking to become an architect, however, I was not accepted, and, as such, I graduated with a Liberal Arts degree. Upon graduation from Arizona State University, I attended Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and studied City and Regional Planning at the Master’s level. I successfully completed one (1) year in a two (2) year program – I did not complete the Master’s degree in City and Regional Planning – due to personal reasons. I returned to Santa Monica where I started (October 1979) my career as graphic designer with Exxon Company, USA. I spent five years with Exxon Company, USA. While working with Exxon Company, USA I was accepted into architectural school – Sci-Arc in Southern California, however, I did not attend preferring to stay with Exxon.. In 1982 I married Laura Flosi and in April 1983 we had our one and only child – Lauren Alain Hovis – a gift from God. We moved to Phoenix, Arizona in 1984 from Los Angeles, where I went to work as a graphic designer with Kitchell CEM (from 1985 -1987). From 1987 – 1995 I was an independent contractor, and a registered representative in mortgage finance, financial management, graphic design, and drafting. Further, I attended the University of Phoenix and successfully obtained a Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) in 1982. I was also a member of the Scottsdale Jaycees, where I became very involved in community events and projects. In 1994, I accepted a cartography position with the Defense Mapping Agency in Reston, Virginia. As such, I relocated from Phoenix to Reston. In 1998, I was accepted and worked as a Visual Information Officer with the Central Intelligence Agency. In 2002, I worked as a Support Officer until my retirement (due to a need for shoulder surgery) in September 2018. Away from my Federal Government service, I have been involved in various organizations and activities in Northern Virginia. In November of 2011, I married Rebecca Ouellette in Santa Monica, California. I reside in San Tan Valley, AZ with my two hamster - Jess and Timothy, our fish, our lizard - RJ Lizard., and our cats - Pearl and Grey. As to hobbies, I enjoy playing sports, attending sporting events, mentoring individuals from financial management to hamsters, building models, photography, travel, multimedia design, managing partner for RJ Hamster, and jazz – smooth jazz to a samba or a bossa nova. Love and God Bless, Peter – aka RJ Hamster Jo hi
