We own businesses,
not tickers.
Every position starts as a business thesis — revenue trajectory, competitive moat, management quality, unit economics. We concentrate in 20–35 companies across our four strategies, sized by conviction, held for full market cycles.
Managed in-house
Four proprietary strategies, researched and managed directly. No third-party model portfolios, no fund-of-fund wrappers, no outsourced due diligence — one methodology, applied across every account.
Direct equity, your name
You own the individual stocks — not fund shares that own the stocks. Every position held directly in your Schwab account with full transparency, individual tax-lot control, and systematic loss harvesting.
Native on Schwab
All four SMAs available nationwide through Charles Schwab's institutional platform. $0 custody commissions, daily reporting via Black Diamond, one transparent advisory fee — no layered costs.
