Copernicus Portfolio Update: 27 April 2026

April 27, 2026 By Lowell Herr 1 Comment

The original management strategy for the Copernicus portfolio was to invest in the S&P 500 (SPY or VOO) and continue to do so while adding money on a regular basis.  I’ve deviated from that original plan slightly as the current market is overvalued or as we say, overbought.  However,

We begin the week with an easy review.  While waiting for SHV dividends to show up in Bethe I’ll update the Copernicus, an “all equity” portfolio.  The asset allocation make-up of the Copernicus is designed for a young investor with many saving years ahead.  Many saving years might be defined as greater than 10 years […]

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 Portfolio Update: 24 December 2025

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.
