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 […]

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

Schrodinger Portfolio Update: 2 January 2026

January 2, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Schrodinger is an excellent portfolio to launch this early in 2026 as there is nothing to do except report the results.  As mentioned each update of the Robo Advisor or Intelligent Portfolio, all the owner does is add new money to the account each month.

Kepler Portfolio Update: 19 December 2025

December 19, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Kepler is the portfolio up for review this morning.  Major asset allocation changes are coming to the Kepler for two reasons.  1) The portfolio has been a poor performer.  Therefore adjustments are appropriate  2) The new asset allocation model is designed to be somewhat recession resistant.

Huygens Portfolio Update: 18 December 2025

December 18, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Huygens is the asset allocation portfolio up for review this morning.  This portfolio is set up to “resist” taking too big a hit when the correction or recession sets in sometime over the next 12 to 18 months.  A correction or recession is certainly not a sure
