Rising Dividend & Growth Strategy
“The stock market is the only place where an average person can go into partnership with the greatest companies in the world.” Warren Buffett
Investment Philosophy: We invest in companies with enduring competitive advantages, shareholder-aligned management, and large markets that provide opportunity for long-term growth. Our holdings offer a blend of current income,potential income growth and are purchased when they appear under-priced. The thesis emphasizes the compounding power of dividends as an increasing income source and performance boost compared to stocks that do not pay dividends. Low portfolio turnover can help effectively manage your capital gains taxes. The strategy is mindful that the future lies with companies bringing competitive advantages and technological innovation.
Income Portfolio
“Dreams are built on profits, but life is lived in the reality of cash flow.” Aksala Wealth
Investment Philosophy: The Conservative portfolio seeks to preserve capital and deliver interest and stock dividend payments in part from fixed income commonly known as bonds along with our flagship offering of dividend income. We seek dividends that are expected to steadily grow at a moderate rate. We invest in high quality companies with enduring competitive advantages, long operating histories, shareholder-aligned management, and large markets that provide opportunity for long-term growth. These businesses maintain reasonable payout ratios, generate consistent free cash flow, and have healthy balance sheets, providing a sturdy foundation for consistent dividend increases. We expect the portfolio to underperform in bull markets and outperform in bear markets due to the defensive nature of its holdings.
Tax-Exempt Income Portfolio
“It’s not what you make, but what you keep that counts” – Somebody intelligent
Municipal bonds help build bridges, schools, hospitals, roads and other structures that improve our communities in this great American Nation. In addition to enhancing our quality of life, many investors find municipal bond investments to be a valuable addition to their portfolios. Municipal bond returns have historically shown relatively low correlations of select fixed income and equities markets. The tax-exempt advantage of Municipal bonds can be favorable, particularly if you are in a higher tax bracket. We have other tax-efficient liability protection, and tax-deferral strategies we implement to guide our clients.
Tactical ETF Strategy
"They say it is better to be poor and happy than rich and miserable, but...""... how about a compromise like moderately rich and just moody?" Princess Diana
Investment Philosophy: Our ETF Strategies are dynamically managed ranging from conservative income to growth. Striving to take advantage of global market opportunities focusing on downside risk management by changing allocations in response to market conditions.
Technology & Innovation Portfolio
“If you asked the people what they wanted they would have said faster horses.” Henry Ford
Investment Philosophy: Much of the technology we utilize in our daily lives was seemingly not needed prior to its invention. Technology is an indispensable part of our lives. Internet usage continues to grow at a rapid pace. Demand is rising quickly for products such as mobile phones, wireless connectivity, mobile payments, computer devices, artificial intelligence, software, semiconductors and cloud computing. Today, many technology companies have matured into companies with strong balance sheets and financial flexibility while continuing to reinvest in their businesses.
