Alexander buys and sells US Equities and Listed Equity Options using a macro top down view to identify growth drivers and risk factors that cause significant price fluctuations over a 3 month to 3 year cycle. The strategy focuses on isolating risk factors and growth drivers to specific sectors, industries and/or macroeconomic trends. Our investment team then uses bottom up fundamental analysis to drive security selection. After security selection, a concentrated book is created of best ideas both long, short, or both. We manage risk by aligning the portfolio, macroeconomic themes, growth drivers, risk factors, security selection and positive expectancy to deliver asymmetrical outsized returns per unit of risk. The baseline for each investment is an asymmetrical return profile of $3 dollars of profit for each $1 dollar of potential loss.
