Investment philosophy

You can build wealth by aligning your decisions with your deepest values and highest expectations. A successful investment strategy originates and reflects your core beliefs and carefully balances that with your tolerance for risk.  I can help you make the decisions that reflect your values and create wealth in a sustainable way. How do I do this? I recommend a strategic asset allocation that is a broadly diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds, cash and alternatives. I will add tactical managers as appropriate to help take advantage of the upside, yet still provide some protection on the downside. I believe diversification is an important risk mitigator, but over-diversification mutes returns. I do not chase hot stocks or managers, but instead wait for a pullback for a better risk/reward entry point. I  use technical analysis to take the emotion out of investing and to help us make the decision of when to buy or sell. Lastly, I believe investing for the long term.
