Copernicus Portfolio Review: 11 March 2026

March 11, 2026 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Copernicus is the equity portfolio scheduled for review this morning.  Based on an over priced U.S. stock market I shifted the emphasis slightly, moving from the S&P 500 (VOO) over to several dividend oriented ETFs.  Below you see a significant percentage of the portfolio focusing on VIG, SCHD and VYM.

Copernicus, the all equity portfolio, is back for an update or review.  I’ve backed off from investing only in VOO or the S&P 500.  Ten of the 500 stocks in the S&P 500 make up 39.1% of the entire index.  Let one of the ten (10) sneeze

Here we are at the halfway point in January and it is time to update the top performing portfolio, Copernicus.  Copernicus is an equity only portfolio where I set out to invest only in S&P 500 equities.  With the market hovering at its high point diversification

Merry Christmas Copernicus is the last portfolio up for review before Christmas.  The major change is to reduce holdings in VOO and shift the percentage over to RSP.  The reason for this move is to reduce exposure to mega-cap stocks that are over-valued and to increase exposure to mid- and

As you move through this update of the Copernicus, don’t neglect to listen to the video linked at the bottom of the page.  There are other YouTube videos also explaining the seven stages that align before a major market draw-down.  Since the Copernicus is an equity only portfolio,

Copernicus is one of the better performing ITA portfolios.  Set up to invest primarily in U.S. Equities the current portfolio is carrying an excess amount of cash as better buying opportunities are anticipated sometime in 2026.

Copernicus Portfolio Update: 18 September 2025

  The Copernicus has essentially operated as a passive portfolio.  Save and invest in broad market equity ETFs has been the philosophy up to this point.  With an overvalued stock market what is the next move?  I plan to swap SCHD with VYM and

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 15 August 2025

The Copernicus follows Warren Buffett’s advice to invest the major port of the portfolio in a low-cost index fund that tracks the S&P 500.  Over the last 3.7 years this management approach has paid off very well as readers will see in a moment.  The
