The R.I.P. Portfolio's Q2 2021 Update

Summary

This real-money portfolio was first introduced to the Seeking Alpha community in December 2015.
The portfolio underperformed its benchmark in Q2 2021 but it is currently outperforming the S&P 500's performance since late 2015.
The portfolio was overweight Financials and Industrials heading into 2020 and that turned out to be a terrible decision early last year due to the fallout from COVID-19.
However, the portfolio has sharply recovered from the March 2020 lows. And looking ahead, I believe that this portfolio is well-positioned for the next few years.

In this article, I will highlight the recent changes to the R.I.P. portfolio and describe how the portfolio performed for the most recent period end.
