Copernicus Portfolio Review: 1 August 2025

August 2, 2025 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

  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,

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 3 July 2025

When the Copernicus portfolio was first launched back in early 2022 it was young investors I had in mind.  Simplicity was a primary factor since I assumed someone following the Copernicus model would have little time to pay attention to any investing model other than to purchase

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 2 June 2025

June 2, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

While this review of the Copernicus portfolio occurs in June, the data more appropriately belongs to May.  Take that into consideration as you read this update.  As followers of this portfolio know, this is a passive portfolio that focuses on investing only in U.S. Equities and is limited to large-cap stocks that track the S&P […]

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 5 May 2025

May 5, 2025 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

As I write this blog the U.S. Stock Market is attempting to regain early Monday losses.  As long-time reader know, the Copernicus is an equities only portfolio.  The management model is to save and purchase S&P 500 ETFs.  Based on the current administration generated chaos I am moving

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 28 March 2025

With this portfolio review of the Copernicus comes a few adjustments.  I am adding SCHD to the existing asset classes and altering the recommended percentages to invest in each.  No plans are in the works to sell off any securities that are over target.  Instead, new cash

Keep it simple is the philosophy of the Copernicus portfolio.  Invest only in U.S. Equities such as VOO and VTI and never sell unless there is an emergency.  Keep cash levels low and expenses to a minimum.  One reason for including ESGV as

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 4 December 2024

Next to the Schrodinger the Copernicus is the easiest portfolio to manage as it is an all equity account using VOO and VTI as the primary investment securities.  By focusing on equities such as VOO the goal is to keep pace with the S&P 500 index

Copernicus Portfolio Review: 8 November 2024

November 8, 2024 By Lowell Herr Leave a Comment

Copernicus is one of my favorite portfolios for young investors or someone who has a 15-year or longer investment horizon.  The philosophy behind the Copernicus is to invest in U.S. Equities and never sell unless there is an emergency.  Since the portfolio invests only
