Huygens Portfolio Review: 13 May 2025

May 14, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Huygens is one of two portfolios using an expanded Asset Allocation (AA) management model.  The other is the computer managed Schrodinger or Schwab’s Intelligent Portfolio.  Over the past month the Huygens lost a bit of ground to its benchmark, the AOR security.  Most likely the AOR

Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 16 May 2025

May 16, 2025 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

Since the last review Schwab made a number of changes in the Schrodinger.  It is rare for such changes.  I suspect Schwab performed some tax harvesting.  One change was to add a municipal bond ETF, SCMB.  The percentage is so small it will not have much impact on the

Millikan Portfolio Review: 27 May 2025

May 27, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

On again, off again tariff threats are constantly roiling the stock and bond markets.  This morning the direction happens to be to the upside.  When in a dark room filled with furniture – stand still.  That is the attitude businesses have as it is most difficult to plan for the

Gauss Portfolio Review: 28 May 2025

May 28, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Gauss is another portfolio using a truncated asset allocation model or one where very few ETFs are used to populate the portfolio.  In other words – Keep it simple.  In keeping with caution in this uncertain economic environment, I placed a 4.5% Trailing Stop Loss Order (TSLO)

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 2 June 2025

June 2, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

While this review of the Copernicus portfolio occurs in June, the data more appropriately belongs to May.  Take that into consideration as you read this update.  As followers of this portfolio know, this is a passive portfolio that focuses on investing only in U.S. Equities and is limited to large-cap stocks that track the S&P […]

Bohr Portfolio Review: 4 June 2025

June 4, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

As with several other ITA portfolios, capital preservation is of significant importance to the owner of the Bohr portfolio.  As a result there is a willingness to give up potential returns during these uncertain times.  The on again, off again tariff battle is an anathema to business

Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 5 June 2025

June 6, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

  Near the beginning of each month I generally update the Schrodinger portfolio as it requires no maintenance.  Computers do all the management work as this is a Robo Advisor portfolio housed at Schwab.  All the owner needs to do is save

Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 20 June 2025

June 21, 2025 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

Welcome to the Summer of 2025.  Since computers make all decisions related to the Schrodinger, the weekend is an appropriate time to update this portfolio.  Since the last review no changes were made other than to pick up a few dividends.  In
