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 overall performance. Schrodinger Security Holdings Below […]

It was a strong week in the US equity markets with the SPX (S&P 500 Index) closing the week a little over 5% higher than last week’s close:

Closed End Funds (CEFs): 19 May 2025

May 19, 2025 By Lowell Herr 7 Comments

Have you been following the Hawking Portfolio?  If not, you may want to give a close looking to this unique approach to investing.  If income is of interest then investing in Closed End Funds (CEFs) is definitely an option.  Before launching into this management model I highly recommend investors first read Steven Bavaria’s book, The […]

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio – Restructuring the Management Plan Part 1: Outline of New Structure and Strategies to be Used

May 19, 2025 By hedgehunter 2 Comments

Over the years we have described a number of systems for portfolio construction and management that might be considered by anyone interested in spending a little time to manage their own money. These vary from very simple “Buy-and-Hold” portfolios, with fixed allocations – where risk is impacted by the level of diversity and correlation between […]

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio – Restructuring the Management Plan Part 2: Asset Allocation and Risk Management

May 21, 2025 By hedgehunter 3 Comments

In part 1 of this series of posts on how I intend to construct and manage the Rutherford-Darwin portfolio going forward, I identified the nine ETFs that I would be using to populate the portfolio. I also indicated that, rather than holding all nine ETFs in a “Buy-and-Hold” portfolio that I would be selecting only […]

Kepler Portfolio Review: 21 May 2025

May 21, 2025 By Lowell Herr 4 Comments

Followers of the Kepler will note major changes in the portfolio makeup.  The latest asset allocation is income driven as I am using a number of Closed-End-Funds (CEFs) to augment VOO and SCHD.  For more information on CEFs check out the latest Hawking portfolio and this blog post.

Einstein Portfolio Review: 21 May 2025

May 22, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Einstein is one of several portfolios using a truncated Asset Allocation investing model.  This is a new and simplified approach in the hopes of setting this portfolio on a stronger performance course.  As with many of the other ITA portfolios, I am taking a cautious approach and that is the reason for setting Trailing Stop […]

Bethe Portfolio Review: 23 May 2025

May 23, 2025 By Lowell Herr 2 Comments

Bethe is another portfolio using the truncated asset allocation model.  A maximum of five Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are used to populate the Bethe. The down market this morning resulted in selling shares of VOO and investing in SHV, a short-term treasury.  Erratic tariff threats are once more roiling the stock and bond markets.  I […]
