Our Process

The simplest path to improve portfolio performance versus the markets is to make sure you are invested in assets that are outperforming the markets. Once you have done that, dialing in the risk to suit specific portfolio objectives becomes a lot easier. Whether you do it through broad market fund allocations, sector and theme investing, or at the individual stock level, incorporating this basic overriding concept of relative strength will add a new level of insight and opportunities; all while evaluating risk through current market structure and relative strength instead of past performance narratives.

Relative Strength Driven Market Analysis

Too often, the investment industry focuses on the newest and most popular narrative to rely on for explanation and often worst portfolio allocation.  As times change, so have the narratives and variables that drive them, but the underlying market actions and reactions remain constant. Combining various types of relative strength measures including participation levels, two types of relative price strength measures and relative momentum with unparalleled market segmentation can quickly and simply determine where strength is in the equity markets to guide our Investment decisions. We do the analysis and let the Advisor or Portfolio Manager decide what level to stop at. From the Macro level, through sectors and subsectors, ETFs and down to the individual security level, we can get you there the fastest.

And the little time we have gets chewed up trying to figure out what is really going on through all the financial media fluff. We want to replace this frustrating process with a simple, focused process that quickly identifies where the strength and weakness lies at every level and without all the noise that usually comes along with it.
