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 […]

Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 22 July 2025

July 23, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Up for review once more is the Robo Advisor or computer managed Schrodinger.  No new shares were recently added despite all the dividends declared for the second quarter.  Cash is building to where I expect some purchasing to take place on any market decline. Schrodinger Asset Allocation Below is the current asset allocation for the […]

Huygens Portfolio Review: 22 July 2025

July 22, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Huygens is an Asset Allocation (AA) portfolio built using a conventional set of Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) primarily from Vanguard.  The AA model has only been operational with the Huygens for approximately 16 months so the history is limited.  This management style is similar to what is used with the Schrodinger, but the securities are […]

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio Review: 18 July 2025

July 21, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment

It was another relatively quiet week in the US Equity markets except for a little nervousness on Wednesday with rumors that Fed Chairman Powell might be fired by the President for not lowering interest rates – but in the end the SPX (S&P 500 Index) closed the week ~0.7% higher than last week’s close:
