We begin the week with an easy review. While waiting for SHV dividends to show up in Bethe I’ll update the Copernicus, an “all equity” portfolio. The asset allocation make-up of the Copernicus is designed for a young investor with many saving years ahead. Many saving years might be defined as greater than 10 years […]
Millikan Portfolio Review: 9 April 2026
Millikan is another Asset Allocation portfolio that is set up to resist a possible recession. The portfolio is well diversified in that it covers all U.S. Equities, Developed International Equities, Emerging Markets, Gold, Artificial Intelligence, Dividend ETFs, and several essential sector ETFs.
Schrodinger Portfolio Update: 17 April 2026

Millikan Portfolio Review: 2 June 2026
The Millikan portfolio is the second of five portfolios to be reviewed and updated this week. Once more the broad equities market is up slightly as I write this blog. As readers will see in the first screenshot, I am patiently waiting for better buying opportunities as
