Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 15 March 2023

March 14, 2023 By Lowell Herr

One of two reference portfolios is the Schrodinger.  The other is the Copernicus.  Were one to lose all spreadsheets and access to databases, these two different investing models would survive and serve the investor quite well.  As for the term reference, I compare all the other portfolios tracked here at ITA with the Schrodinger as […]

Copernicus All Seasons Portfolio Review: 27 March 2023

March 27, 2023 By Lowell Herr

While I’m a few days early updating the Copernicus, I need to insert this analysis into the mix for several reasons – new readers at the top of the list.  Before anyone is overwhelmed with the various management tools, pay attention to this passively managed portfolio.  There are two passive portfolios tracked on the ITA […]

Schrodinger Robo Advisor Portfolio Update: 29 March 2023

March 29, 2023 By Lowell Herr

  The Schrodinger is a portfolio for all seasons.  Individuals preparing for retirement, and this applies to young folks in their 20s, would do well to take a close look at this Robo Advisor computer managed portfolio.  If one is still working and has little time to spend on portfolio management, the Schrodinger requires zero […]

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 6 April 2023

April 6, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Copernicus is the passively managed portfolio up for review this morning.  This portfolio is easy to manage and update and it happens to be one of the more successful portfolios tracked here at ITA.  As readers will recall, the Copernicus is populated with U.S. Equities and the philosophy is to never sell.  Only save and […]

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 3 May 2023

May 3, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Based on yesterday’s market decline, today seemed like a good time to check in on the Copernicus as this portfolio is constructed only of U.S. Equities.  The philosophy behind the Copernicus is to save and invest.  Never sell unless there is an emergency.  How is this portfolio performing on a return and risk basis?  When […]

Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 4 May 2023

May 4, 2023 By Lowell Herr

It is rare for the Schwab computer to rebalance the Schrodinger portfolio, but that is exactly what happened last month.  Go to this link and toggle back and forth between this morning’s investment quiver and last month to see the difference.  The three new additions are:  PRF, PRFZ, and PXF.  Only one share of each […]

Copernicus Buy & Hold Portfolio Review: 18 May 2023

May 18, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Copernicus is the only Buy & Hold portfolio managed here on the ITA blog site.  Diversification comes from holding hundreds of companies in the United States.  If one prefers to further diversify this portfolio one would add International Equities (VEU) to the options available for purchase. Thus far the Copernicus has performed very well and […]

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 29 May 2023

May 28, 2023 By Lowell Herr

Copernicus is a Buy & Hold portfolio where the only holdings are U.S. Equities.  The philosophy behind the Copernicus is to purchase shares in one of four U.S. Equities ETFs and never sell unless there is an emergency.  Thus far this is the top performing ITA portfolio as it now holds a commanding lead of […]
