Kepler recently experienced changes in the portfolio makeup. I moved the Kepler to Closed-End-Funds (CEFs) in an experiment to see how well this investing model might work going forward. The Kepler is one of the poorest performing portfolios so it made sense to make a change. In this post I will explain how I go […]
Kepler CEF Portfolio Review: 28 July 2025
Kepler is a portfolio in transition. The move is from a growth portfolio to an income portfolio where the income is derived from Closed-End-Funds (CEFs). In a recent blog post I requested readers submit CEF ideas, but to limit them to no more than five (5) at a time. One recent recommendation (EIC) was added […]
Kepler Portfolio Review: 24 June 2025
Kepler is undergoing security changes as it has been under-performing for a long time. The portfolio could wait until after the second quarter dividends are available, but I want to use this review as a reference to see how the different closed-end-funds (CEFs) perform before and after second quarter dividends.
Kepler Portfolio Review: 21 May 2025

Later this morning I will post additional information on these two ratios. Disclaimer: Rather than investment advice as to what you should do, […]
Kepler Simplified Asset Allocation Portfolio: 31 March 2025
Kepler is nearly in balance with the simplified asset allocation model. The asset allocation is very close to the Bogle Three ETF model. Instead of bonds I am using SCHD and SHV. In place of international equities I am using SCHG for a bit more growth. Another change is the percentage invested in each asset […]
Kepler Asset Allocation Portfolio Review: 26 February 2025
Kepler is a small struggling portfolio that was recently moved over to the Asset Allocation investing model. The portfolio is beginning to come into balance as the ETFs are moving closer to the target percentages. Most of the equity asset classes are above target. Infusion of new cash and dividends will be used to build […]
Kepler Portfolio Review: 13 February 2025
Kepler is the small portfolio up for review this morning. The owner is rebuilding this portfolio as it looks like all educational expenses are in the rear view mirror. As readers will see in the following update, this portfolio is finally coming into balance. In other words, the various assets are closing in on the […]
