Stock Selection
Stock selection with macroeconomics, a view
of the world situation, is taken. This includes population
trends, energy consumption, trends in technology, food
consumption, political occurrences, interest rate trends,
and much more. In microeconomics, the analysis is made of
companies which participate in the areas of growing strength
with the potential for increased value in earnings and
ultimately in the appreciation of their market value. In
these industry groups, we look for the market leaders and
the companies that interact with them. We also look closely
at the management of these enterprises.
Our selection process of the fundamentally strong core,
cyclical, and growth companies with global enhancements
along with strict technical management provides a portfolio
with excellent value. It also offers high growth prospects
and minimum risk exposure.
Core Position
A core position is a company that has
demonstrated a steady progressive fundamental growth over
the years. They also have excellent prospects to continue
that growth that has been reflected in a corresponding
development in its equity price.
Cyclical Positions
A cyclical position is a very interesting
thing. This is a company whose fundamentals and
corresponding security price is dependent on either the
cyclical nature of the company's business or the overall
economic business cycle.
Emerging Growth Prospects
Emerging growth positions involve smaller
companies that are entrepreneurial in nature and are in the
early phase of their business life cycle. They represent new
technology, products, services, and concepts. From an income
point of view, these investments tend to offer an increasing
stream of dividend payouts. We will, at times, invest in
interest producing bonds if we perceive value in comparison
to the equity environment. These bonds include corporates,
municipals, or treasuries. |
