PHILOSOPHY
David believes in delivering clear cut advice to his clients. When they contemplate unwise decisions, he says, "I tell them." David finds that he can guide his clients to rational decisions by filtering the daily barrage of news and commentary. The challenge to investors and their advisors, he maintains, is to discern the real information--the signal to buy or sell--from the rhetoric and noise. David maintains that there is more than one path to success. Success can come from buying on fundamentals and holding for the longer term. Success can also come from a disciplined, active trading strategy which emphasizes sector rotation. By adding to the scrutiny of fundamentals his special expertise in the technical analysis of price movements, David seeks to deliver higher-than-average returns on aggressive client portfolios.
