Dirac 2026 Portfolio Review: 24 April 2026

It is a difficult time to be managing the Dirac Portfolio using a momentum model since we are not, currently, in a strong trending environment and we have little diversification to separate the assets in our quiver - all of which reside in the US Equity asset class. Money is clearly moving around within this asset class, but the movement is not classical or clear and tends to change from day to … [Read More...]

Pauling Portfolio Review: 19 May 2026

May 19, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Pauling is an asset allocation driven portfolio with leanings toward "recession proof" if there is such an allocation.  Seventy percent of the portfolio is currently held in short-term treasuries and this is by design.  Should we see a 10% draw-down … [Read more]

Dirac 2026 Portfolio Review: 15 May 2026

Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 15 May 2026

May 15, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Since the last review the computers at Schwab rebalanced the Schrodinger by adding shares to large cap equities and bonds.  Considering this overbought market both additions are somewhat puzzling.  However, I'm not going to quibble as the performance … [Read more]

May 13, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Kepler is scheduled for a review later this month, but I moved it up as I am making a few changes.  One change occurred this morning as I sold all shares of SHV (expense ratio of 15 basis points) and replaced it with shares of SCHO (expense ratio of … [Read more]
