Einstein Portfolio Review: 18 July 2025

July 18, 2025 By Lowell Herr 2 Comments

Einstein is in the rebuilding stage after experiencing several withdrawals for educational purposes.  The owner recently added cash.  More shares of SHV were purchased and there is currently a limit order in place to purchase one more share of VOO.

Franklin Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 15 July 2025

July 17, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Franklin is one of three Sector BPI portfolios, all named after women scientists.  Since the last review of the Franklin, shares of VHT and VOX were sold out of the portfolio leaving shares in Consumer Staples (VDC)  and Energy (VDE).  The Franklin also holds shares in VOO and the bulk of the portfolio resides in […]

Bohr Portfolio Review: 12 July 2025

July 12, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

When developing a portfolio with retirement as a goal, do your best to never withdrawal funds as growth is interrupted.  That is what happened to both the Bohr and Einstein portfolios.  The owners of each needed funds for education and other emergencies.  When funds are withdrawn the benefits of dollar-cost-averaging is broken, thus stunting portfolio […]

Questions To Ask Your Money Manager

July 11, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

  Recently I was talking with a neighbor and I mentioned that I have been writing an investment blog for over 17 years.  The neighbor mentioned he has a money manager handle his investments.  When I have one of these conversations my mind begins to come up with questions I would ask a money manager […]

Pauling Portfolio Review: 11 July 2025

July 11, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Pauling is one of several portfolios that lag their benchmark.  When this is the case I go to the Risk Ratios to see the direction of the growth or regression.  In which direction is the portfolio moving with respect to the broad equities market?  This is not an easy time for money management as we […]

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 3 July 2025

July 5, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

When the Copernicus portfolio was first launched back in early 2022 it was young investors I had in mind.  Simplicity was a primary factor since I assumed someone following the Copernicus model would have little time to pay attention to any investing model other than to purchase an ETF now and again when cash became […]

Millikan Portfolio Review: 1 July 2025

July 1, 2025 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

While the Millikan portfolio is dated July 1, the information is primarily June data.  The Millikan portfolio is narrowly focused on four Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs).  As readers will see in a moment, I am deviating from the basic asset allocation recommendations as we have yet to see the impact of proposed tariffs and the […]

Bethe Portfolio Review: 30 June 2025

June 30, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Few changes took place within the Bethe portfolio since the last review.  A few more shares of SHV were added as I am taking a conservative approach with this portfolio.  I will most likely continue along these capital preservation lines until after the 2026 elections so patience is required.
