Growth Model
Investing Approach
This model follows a core-satellite passive and tactical approach premised on the following principles that markets move in recognizable short and intermediate-term trends. Over the intermediate term, strong asset classes tend to stay strong, while weak asset classes tend to continue in weakness. In addition over the shorter term markets are dominated by media noise, fear, and similar short-term disruptions. However short term trends represent an opportunity to capture upside, and will determine if the current trend is in-tact.
The core investments are split between a dividend, fundamental, and fixed-income portfolio of ETF's.
Satellites will rotate among ETF’s for that chosen strategy and fixed income, as it seeks to provide market upside with less volatility while limiting downside.
