Copernicus Portfolio Update: 23 June 2026

June 23, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Copernicus is the “all equity” portfolio, but with a few changes since the U.S, Stock market is overvalued by a wide margin.  At this writing the market was down today, but the Copernicus was holding to the upside. The current portfolio holds very few shares in the total market while investing in dividend driven ETFs […]

Carson Sector BPI Portfolio Update: 19 June 2026

June 19, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 11 June 2026

June 11, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Schrodinger is the Robo Advisor portfolio up for review this morning.  This is actually an update as little action occurred since the last posting of information. To new readers, the Schrodinger portfolio is managed by computers based at Schwab.  Schwab refers to these portfolios as Intelligent Portfolios.  There is no cost to managing this Robo […]

Financial Repression Portfolio from ChatGPT

June 9, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Create an investment portfolio made up of 10 to 12 low cost ETFs. Diversify the portfolio […]

Portfolio Diversification: 6 June 2026

June 6, 2026 By Lowell Herr 4 Comments

What to make of Friday’s sell off?  Hi Tech took a hit last Friday, but the broad market is still bullish based on the Bullish Percent Indicator (BPI) for the NYSE. These mixed signals are confusing at best.  This next week, as well as the behavior of the U.S. Equities market over the summer will […]

McClintock Sector BPI Portfolio Update: 5 June 2026

June 5, 2026 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

Since McClintock is a Sector BPI portfolio, I updated the BPI spreadsheet and found that Health is overbought.  I placed a 3% TSLO under VHT.  What I’ve been doing is selling all but one (1) share.  Without going into great detail, holding on to a single share makes it easier to keep track of the […]

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 26 May 2026

May 26, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Copernicus is a simple portfolio for investors with 10 to 15 years of saving years ahead.  With the U.S. Equities market at or near an all-time high I pulled back a tad on investing in ETFs that hold a high percentage in the mega-cap seven to ten type stocks.  Therefore, instead of investing a large […]

Carson Sector BPI Portfolio Review: 22 May 2026

May 22, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Carson is the oldest Sector BPI portfolio, going back to 11/1/2022.  This morning Materials moved into the oversold zone so I added shares of VAW to the Carson.  The Carson is currently holding shares in seven of the eleven sectors. This morning I asked ChatGPT this question. “Where can I find example portfolios illustrating the […]
