January 15, 2026 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

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,

  I am pushing the Copernicus review ahead of schedule as I want to see what damage or impact Friday’s selloff had on this equity oriented portfolio.  Low unemployment numbers and the coming tariffs are roiling the U.S. Equities market.  I expect this to continue into next week.  Political uncertainty,
