Investment Philosophy
“The essence of investment
management is the management of
risks, not the management of
returns.“
- Benjamin Graham
Mandates & Guidelines

• Actively Managed
• Portfolios are re-evaluated frequently
for new ideas and sell candidates
• Willingness to move into cash when market conditions dictate
such.
• Focus on Leadership sectors
• Will only recommend sectors that are participating in market
advance
Hybrid Approach
• Consider the whole picture
• Market and sector forces account for 80% share price movement
• But investors spend 80% of their time analyzing the individual
company level
• Company fundamentals account for only 20%
• Utilize a hybrid Top-Down and Bottom-Up approach
Methodology
Manage Exposure – Top Down Security Selection – Bottom Up

Others

• Increasing volume of trade on positive days (accumulation)

Selling Rules
• Buy, Hold & SELL!
– Hold winning positions and sell losing positions
• Study overall market direction using Quantitative & Technical
Analysis.
• No new positions during downturn.
– Will not try to “Catch the Falling Knife”
• Limit all losses to ~10% by implementing stop losses on
purchases; this price never get adjusted down.
• Raise sell limits as stock moves higher.
– As profit positions start to roll over
• Consider using Reverse ETF’s and option hedging strategies
during downturn.
In Summary – A Strategy for all Investors
• Management of Risk is the first priority
• Rules-based process encourages disciplined and structured
habits, while reducing emotional decisions
• Leadership style is evergreen – allows investors to participate in
market strength when necessary
• Cash can be King - stringent selling discipline allows for
protecting gains and managing through pervasive declines
