Increasing your Wealth
is what we do

How we can help You

We seek to invest for opportunistic profits and to protect you from giving back those gains when the markets turn down.
We avoid buy and hold to protect you from downside volataility.
 
Of course, you have objectives.  Do you want  ...
  • a wealthy lifestyle?   
  • financial independence? 
  • enough funds to retire sooner? 
  • peace of mind and security?
  • growth in value while avoiding high risk? 
  • protection from financial loss in bad markets?  

 

Then, you’ve got to make a move to reach your lifestyle goals – failure is not an option.

 

 Why talk to us? 

When change happens, we happen to change.

We understand the signs of the times,

and we know what should be done about them.

If you have questions - we have answers.

Contact us today and get immediate help.

 

What else do you need to know?

HWM was formed as a relationship-oriented investment manager. We design programs that help you reach your financial goals.  We work to grow our client’s balances in favorable markets, and to protect client’s principal in high-risk markets.

We don’t try to PREDICT FUTURE trends; we try to ADJUST RISK to CURRENT CONDITIONS.  That’s a significant difference to the general strategy you get from large firms.

Your financial success is important to us.  We want to help as many people as possible to be successful in reaching their retirement objectives and wealth goals.

We charge a 1% fee on portfolios we manage, which is industry standard for such services.  We also provide financial planning for all portfolio management clients.  Our minimum is $50,000. 

 

For those not ready for this service, we charge a one-time fee of $500 to create a financial plan, with actionable steps.  There is a quarterly fee of $100 (or $35 monthly if preferred) for ongoing financial planning assistance, and we also advise on your outside investment accounts, eg., your company retirement account.

Call or email us. Let's set up an on-line video meeting or a phone call to discuss what we can do for you.

Alternatively, you may contact me by calling 972-702-6032, and I’ll give you a way to securely email your portfolio holdings to me and we will input the data and produce your evaluation report.

STOCK MARKET RATING (THE BIG PICTURE) … 5 (1-4 bearish, 5 neutral, 6-9 bullish). The warning signs have caused me to change my perspective on the market, from bullish to cautious. 

 

The economy and corporate earnings remained strong, and retail sales were very strong.  Investors were excited by the AI benefits that could accrue to almost all companies.  But, we now see inflation inching upward and ruining things.  We could see higher for longer – higher interest rates that is, but maybe not higher stock prices .......

PORTFOLIOS … After reading the full report, if you are unsure how to position your portfolio to take advantage of these conditions, call me to discuss your circumstances. 

 

If you would like, we will do a complimentary portfolio evaluation, and we will explain what ought to be done to improve your situation.
