Early in the month is an excellent time to review portfolios such as the Copernicus and Schrodinger as both are “no-brain” portfolios in that neither require any significant decisions. One does not need a degree in Finance from the University of Chicago to manage these portfolios. While the Schrodinger is an asset allocation portfolio managed […]
Copernicus Portfolio Review: 23 February 2024
Today we return to the review of one of my two favorite portfolios. The other is the Schrodinger. Why do I look with favor upon the Copernicus? It is simple to manage and it is an excellent portfolio for those 10 or more years away from retirement. Young folks will find the Copernicus particularly to […]
Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 1 March 2024
Schrodinger is a “do nothing” portfolio in the sense that it is on automatic pilot after it is set up with Schwab.

“A major part of any investment plan is portfolio asset allocation.” – Richard A. Ferri Welcome to the Pauling II Asset Allocation portfolio. Expanding on the Tentative Asset Allocation model, the Pauling II will use fifteen (15) asset classes, recognizing there will be some overlap between VTI, VOO, VO, VB, and QQQ. Expanding from 10 […]
Pauling II Update: 1 April 2024
This interim update is to clue readers in on a few changes I made in the investment quiver and where the portfolio is after one day of trading. Numerous limit orders are still in place to purchase more shares for nearly all the asset classes. One not so obvious change is the weighting given to […]
