When well into this update of the Kepler I realized the portfolio was reviewed only a few days ago. Since all the screenshots are uploaded I’ll proceed with the update. Little has changed other than the addition of new cash and the purchase of a few asset classes still out of balance.

Pauling Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 18 November 2024
Pauling is one of several Asset Allocation portfolios launched in early April of this year (2024). In an effort to reduce taxes I avoid selling appreciated Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs). This strategy slows down the rebalancing process. Rebalancing takes place when fresh cash is deposited or dividends are declared. For Asset Allocation portfolios valued below […]
Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 1): 15 November 2024
It seemed to be a week of reflection and re-evaluation in the US markets following last week’s strong positive reaction to the US elections. The US Equity markets pulled back ~2% on the week:
Kepler Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 14 November 2024

Rutherford Portfolio Review (Tranche 4): 8 November 2024
As investors we have to ignore the polititians and focus on the impact of policy on the markets. Obviously, Trump’s victory is seen positively by the majority of investors as being good for the markets – at least for now. Last week I suggested that if we broke above the 5800 resistance zone in the […]
Copernicus Portfolio Review: 8 November 2024
Copernicus is one of my favorite portfolios for young investors or someone who has a 15-year or longer investment horizon. The philosophy behind the Copernicus is to invest in U.S. Equities and never sell unless there is an emergency. Since the portfolio invests only in U.S. Equities the S&P 500 is an appropriate benchmark. The […]
