Copernicus Portfolio Review: 6 April 2026

April 6, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

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 […]

Schrodinger Portfolio Update: 17 April 2026

April 17, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Time once more to update the Schrodinger, a truly passive portfolio as the owner does nothing except add cash to the account.  As the market moves higher the Schwab computers are standing pat and not purchasing additional shares despite increasing the level of cash. Schrodinger Security Holdings

Copernicus Portfolio Update: 27 April 2026

April 27, 2026 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

The original management strategy for the Copernicus portfolio was to invest in the S&P 500 (SPY or VOO) and continue to do so while adding money on a regular basis.  I’ve deviated from that original plan slightly as the current market is overvalued or as we say, overbought.  However,

Gauss Portfolio Review: 29 April 2026

April 29, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Yesterday the U.S. Equities market took quite a hit.  This morning stocks are down again.  What is going on to drive down the S&P 500, a good benchmark for monitoring the overall market?  Check out this YouTube video.  If the video does not start at the beginning,

Millikan Asset Allocation Portfolio: 6 May 2026

May 6, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Millikan is the asset allocation portfolio up for review this morning and it is undergoing a few changes.  The new allocation of assets is designed to further diversify the portfolio, provide additional resistance to a possible recession, and to counter the high probability of financial repression.  Read the

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 since 12/31/2021 has been excellent.  The

Millikan Portfolio Review: 2 June 2026

June 2, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

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
