THE MANAGER INVESTS |
| WHAT
IS YOUR INVESTING STRATEGY? (GROWTH, VALUE, TECHNICAL ANALYSIS, ETC.) |
|
answer --> |
Primarily focused on dividend paying stocks with above market yield, reasonable payout ratio, earnings growth to support increasing the divided and a track record of dividend hikes. Secondary focus is growth with a 'growth at a reasonable price' approach. I'll sometimes attempt to increase returns by trading around core positions.

| HOW
DO YOU DECIDE TO REMOVE A STOCK FROM YOUR FUNDS? |
|
answer --> |
Much to learn here. Basically, when the reasons I bought it are no longer valid - either because of an adverse business development or the price has appreciated to an overvalued condition.
