Copernicus Portfolio Review: 15 August 2025

August 15, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

The Copernicus follows Warren Buffett’s advice to invest the major port of the portfolio in a low-cost index fund that tracks the S&P 500.  Over the last 3.7 years this management approach has paid off very well as readers will see in a moment.  The owner of this portfolios adds a few dollars each month […]

Bohr Portfolio Review: 13 August 2025

August 13, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Bohr is another mini-asset allocation portfolio where only a few index ETFs are used to populate the portfolio.  Cash was needed for personal reasons so this account is in a state of flux and will need to be rebuilt over the coming months.

Kepler CEF Portfolio Review: 12 August 2025

August 12, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Pauling Portfolio Review: 6 August 2025

August 6, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Pauling is another mini-asset allocation portfolios where the number of ETFs populating the portfolio are limited.  In anticipation of a slower economy when third and fourth quarter economic reports come out, I’ve concentrated on building up short-term treasuries in a number of portfolios. If managing a family portfolio, my recommendation is to diversify across the […]
