Core Equity

BALANCED ACCOUNTS    CORE FIXED INCOME

Our equity approach can be considered “Core Equity”, meaning our investments are not concentrated in just a few market sectors, a few industries, or a few company-size ranges.  In other words, it’s not highly concentrated in one specific area.  This gives us wide latitude to try to find value across most of the equity space.

HERE’S A BRIEF LOOK

“All Cap Equity” Approach

Valuation

Focus on both absolute and relative valuation

PE, PEG, price/cash flow, dividend yield, EV/sales, EV/EBITDA

Buy Discipline

We consider buying a position when we believe the shares exhibit a compelling value for the expected level of risk

—Sell Discipline

We consider selling a position when we believe the shares are trading at an excessive valuation, a negative change in industry or company fundamentals has occurred, or an alternative investment exhibits a better value

—Diversification
