The evolution of our investment process.

Over the past 43 years, there has been an evolution of our investment process. What started with valuation and earnings revision analysis, has evolved into a more dynamic process that captures information in real time and processes that information to identify potential buy and sell opportunities in our equity universe.

Understanding the core of our investment process

We utilize a comprehensive 3-step investment process to create customized portfolios that are uniquely tailored to your investing needs.

01

Valuation

Our proprietary valuation model

The first step in our investment process utilizes our proprietary valuation model which enables us to compare multiple valuation metrics to their historical averages. This produces a subset of stocks from the investment universe that are “cheap” relative to their long term growth prospects.

02

Our Micro Elements Model

Separating the news from noise

As information has become more widely and abundantly available through various platforms, it has become increasingly important to have a way to organize and process it — ultimately separating the "news" from "noise".


Our unique Micro Elements model allows us to capture data and process it in a highly thorough and efficient manner — enabling our investment team to focus their research efforts on companies that we feel have a higher likelihood of outperforming their respective benchmarks.

The importance of investor sentiment

Investor sentiment is an important factor in determining what is being discounted by investors and may allow us to take advantage of opportunities to buy where we feel multiples may be able to expand — and sell where we feel investors are too optimistic about a company’s growth prospects.

Our unique Micro Elements model helps us to capture investor sentiment — the component of a stock price that is not statistically explainable. Combined with our knowledge of industry and sector dynamics, this allows us to potentially identify the best time to enter and exit an investment position.

Fundamental Analysis

A comprehensive study of company growth projections

Finally, we focus our efforts on gaining a thorough understanding of each company's specific competitive dynamics within its own industry growth landscape — challenging the assumptions underlying their expected growth rates and ranking them as suitable candidates for investment.

We welcome an opportunity to learn about you and your needs.
