Copernicus Portfolio Review: 8 November 2024

November 8, 2024 By Lowell Herr

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 […]

Gauss Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 8 November 2024

November 8, 2024 By Lowell Herr

Nothing has changed over the last few days that will impact the Gauss portfolio.  The only sector ETF held in any of these Sector BPI portfolios is Energy (VDE) and this sector is closer to oversold than it is to overbought.  Oversold is when the percentage of stocks in a particular sector drop to 30% […]

Carson Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 7 November 2024

November 7, 2024 By Lowell Herr

Carson is the Sector BPI portfolio up for review this morning.  Carson is the oldest Sector BPI portfolio with two years of data which is still a very short period to come to any significant conclusions as to the viability of any investing model.  Thus far the model looks strong, but the Sector BPI model […]

Bethe Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 6 November 2024

November 6, 2024 By Lowell Herr

Bethe is another Asset Allocation portfolio that is approaching a balanced state.  Since there is a 90% overlap in stocks held in VTI and VOO, I placed a Trailing Stop Loss Order of 3% for VTI.  Inflation is currently not a problem so a TSLO of 1% is in place for TIP.  Once cash available […]

Einstein Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 5 November 2024

November 5, 2024 By Lowell Herr

During this year (2024) several portfolios were shifted to the Asset Allocation investing model in an effort to return to my investing roots.  The Einstein is one such portfolio.  What I am attempting to do with these portfolios is to get each one close to the recommended percentage for each asset class.  The percentage recommendations […]

Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 4 November 2024

November 4, 2024 By Lowell Herr

Schrodinger is a portfolio I continually tout for investors not interested in spending time on their investment portfolio.  Schwab does it all using computer algorithms.  Answer a few questions, invest your money and Schwab will set up an Intelligent Portfolio based on your answers.  With the Schrodinger I’ve requested the computers emphasize U.S. Equities and […]

Huygens Asset Allocation Portfolio Update: 30 October 2024

October 30, 2024 By Lowell Herr

As mentioned in the last review, this is an update of the Huygens.  Huygens is one of nine portfolios built around the investing model of Asset Allocation.  The Schrodinger is another such portfolio.  With the Huygens, and those I watch over, I primarily use Vanguard ETFs as they are inexpensive and do a good job […]

McClintock Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 30 October 2024

October 30, 2024 By Lowell Herr

Before moving into the review of the McClintock I want to comment on a few of the portfolios tracked here at ITA. While the Schrodinger (computer managed portfolio) is outperforming the S&P 500 as well as the SPY ETF, it is not designed to do this well.  Any portfolio that holds bonds or treasuries as […]
