About
"When change happens, we happen to change."
Investment Management
Our methods of stock market investing go beyond simplistic asset allocation models that produce below-average results.
If our evaluation of the market is positive, and the likely road ahead looks good, we want to take advantage of investments that in our view have the best appreciation potential, seeking opportunistic profits with moderate-risk holdings.
If in our judgment the market is "risky" and if it's showing signs of an upcoming correction, we foresee the danger and take precautions to defend client assets from erosion. Many others proceed blindly forward, suffering the negative consequences springing from no proactive defensive plan, and regretting it later.
If we see increasing risks ahead, maybe even an upcoming correction, we may go partially or fully to cash to preserve investor's capital and not give profits back to the market. Or, we may take protective, defensive actions to keep your account growing.
The stewardship principle teaches us that it is just as important to be a concerned risk-avoider, as it is to be an opportunistic risk-taker.
We want to explain how we go about doing all this.
You could start with a review of our Services tab. Or, you can go directly to our Contact tab. You can set up a phone call, an online video meeting, or an in-person appointment to discuss how we work for clients.
Comprehensive Financial Planning
We offer complimentary financial planning to every investment client. Our sophisticated tools are designed to yield in-depth information. Our certified financial planner creates an actionable plan from your financial data that allows clients to realize better financial outcomes. Our CFP functions as your "CFO" and will adjust your approach to your key lifestyle issues as necessary so you can achieve true financial success.
You will receive a 10-15 page financial planning report with "to-dos" to improve your lifestyle. There is an assessment of whether or not you have enough resources to last throughout your lifetime. We will go over improvements you can make to put you on the path to reaching your goals, primarily in the areas of cash flow, debt repayment, investment returns, insurance, taxes, and estate issues.
We provide recommendations for improving your workplace retirement accounts, and for optimizing your company benefits package.
We will monitor, assess and discuss your plan progress with you throughout your tenure with us.
