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,

Copernicus Portfolio Update: 27 April 2026

April 27, 2026 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

Gauss Portfolio Review: 5 March 2026

March 5, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Gauss is the portfolio up for review today.  The owner of this portfolio is not contributing significant amounts of cash each month so the re-balancing will need to come from dividends and interest income. Gauss is a very conservative portfolio as one can see from the low beta value of 0.27.  Conservative is defined in […]

Schrodinger Portfolio Review: 29 January 2026

January 29, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

The question, “Who will manage the family portfolio when I die?” gave rise to research into Robo Advisor services.  I looked into numerous services several years ago and actually invested money with several brokers to test their services.  Performance and cost were the
