Gauss Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 31 July 2025

July 31, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

  July ends with the update of another “mini” asset allocation portfolio.  Gauss brings July to a close.  As with similar portfolio structures I am tilting toward income vs. growth until the political environment shows some stability.  If and when we observe market weakness, at that time I will make an effort to slowly move […]

Einstein Portfolio Review: 30 July 2025

July 30, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Einstein is similar to the Bethe portfolio, posted earlier today.  This will be a quick analysis as the rebalancing process is similar.  The Einstein is in a state of rebuilding after significant withdrawals were made to cover educational expenses.

Bethe Portfolio Update: 30 July 2025

July 30, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Bethe is one of the “mini” asset allocation portfolios and one that needed rebalancing.  This morning I sold a significant number of SHV shares making rebalancing possible.  SCHD was most out of balance and I will explain below how I went about setting limit orders.

Kepler CEF Portfolio Review: 28 July 2025

July 28, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Kepler is a portfolio in transition.  The move is from a growth portfolio to an income portfolio where the income is derived from Closed-End-Funds (CEFs).  In a recent blog post I requested readers submit CEF ideas, but to limit them to no more than five (5) at a time.  One recent recommendation (EIC) was added […]

Millikan Portfolio Review: 25 July 2025

July 28, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Millikan is one of several Asset Allocation portfolios, but with a narrowly defined set of securities.  Currently I am playing it safe as this is an over-heated market.  Playing it safe means that I am overloading the portfolio using the short-term treasury SHV.  Should the market decline I will slowly move back into VOO and […]

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio Review: 25 July 2025

July 27, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

US equities continued their steady climb to new all-time highs this week with the SPX (S&P 500 Index) closing ~1.5% higher than last week’s Close: The next potential resistance level might come somewhere in the 6450-6500 range between the 1.236 Fibonacci extension level and the psychologically significant 6500 “round number”. From there we would wait […]

Selecting Closed-End-Funds

July 26, 2025 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

This blog is designed to elicit contributions from readers as it pertains to selecting Closed-End-Funds (CEFs) for portfolio construction.  Hedgehunter has already compiled a list of CEFs and these securities can be found in the Hawking portfolio.  I started a list which can be found in the Kepler portfolio.  I plan to screen both lists […]

If you received notification of this blog post and it turned out to be Private, what happened is that I either clicked on the wrong radio button or the software sent out a notification before I finished reviewing the Bohr portfolio.  Here is the latest review of the Bohr. Just a reminder to readers that […]
