Investment Philosophy

Our goal has always been, and continues to be, to protect our clients’ hard-earned capital and to achieve reasonable long-term growth and sufficient income, in order to meet our clients’ needs.

Mark J. KrygierVice President & Portfolio Manager


Our Investment Philosophy is Based on:

• Conservative and time proven principles of investing.

• Overlaying our investment ideas with technical analysis.


Our SUCCESS has Come From:

• Care and Attention – that we give to the construction and on-going management of our clients’ individual portfolios.

• Experience – managing through two of the worst bear markets in the last century has framed our views.

• Learning – constantly seeking out ideas for upgrading portfolios and upgrading professional education.


What Makes Us Uniquely Qualified?

Consistent and disciplined approach to investing.

Individualized portfolios vs. “Cookie Cutter”

i.e. one size does NOT fit all.

Clients hold individual securities vs. mutual or pooled funds.

Transparency with regard to:

(a) investment process

(b) risk management

(c) fee structure


What Makes us Uniquely Qualified?

Holistic Approach to achieving overall financial success.

Portfolio management is done within that context with consideration of:

(a) legal ramifications

(b) tax planning considerations

(c) estate planning needs

We help our clients avoid THE FINANCIAL FAILURE TRAP!


Characteristics of Our Portfolios

• Concentrated portfolios – 25-35 stocks (Canada, U.S. and ADRs)

• High quality fixed income securities: investment-grade corporate bonds and high-quality preferred shares

• Significantly less volatile than the markets by underweighting cyclical stocks

• Willingness to trim gains to limit our clients’ exposure to any single company - remember the “Nortel” lesson

• Willing to take small losses to avoid large losses e.g. AIG

• Strategically manage asset allocation in volatile markets


Investment Ideas are Generated From Various Sources Including:

• TD Waterhouse PAIR and TD Newcrest Research• Non-brokerage research including Valueline and Standard & Poors• The Gartman Letter• Don Vialoux’s “Tech Talk”• Strategic Investment Advisor (SIA) Charts• The Financial Post, Globe & Mail, Barron’s, Wall Street Journal

The Trend is Your Friend! All investment ideas are “vetted” through technical analysis – we like stocks that go “up” and hate stocks that go down!


Criteria We Look For in Choosing Stocks

• GOOD BUSINESSES: industry leaders, strong and improving balance sheet, clear and sustainable competitive advantages, free cash flow generation, understandable businesses, proven management ability.

• GOOD PRICE: avoid buying near all-time highs, consider valuation vs. peers and market as a whole, not looking to catch the bottom.

• TECHNICALLY SOUND: ideally the 50-week moving average (MA) is trending up, the stock is trading above the 50-week MA, and it has significant volume which is supporting further moves upwards.


Stocks Will be Sold Under the Following Conditions:

• Future profitability - appears to be declining.

• Balance sheet risk - appears to be increasing unreasonably.

• A better investment opportunity exists elsewhere – not married to positions.

• Breakdown in the technical momentum – this removes the emotion involved in knowing when to sell.

• Trim positions - to maintain our diversification discipline.


Who Are We?

• Over $140 million Assets Under Administration.

• Combined experience of 35 years in the financial services industry.

• Supported by TD Bank Financial Group - one of North America’s most financially stable and reputable financial institutions.
