Our Insights

Simpson Capital uses research and analysis to understand and describe the investment environment by forming an opinion of the political economic landscape and outlook. This reasoned knowledge is in the form of perspective, understanding, or deduction. Sometimes SCM may come up with an insight after a long period of thought, or suddenly out of thin air as in an epiphany or sudden understanding.

Once SCM has feel for the bigger picture, it applies these macro-economic themes to the industry and individual issue levels on an actionable basis. An outlook is developed for each of the ten industrial sectors comprising the market by discerning factor patterns. Individual stocks are followed in three  tracking lists ranging from a universe of one hundred stocks down to the best in each sector.

Issue selection selection for your portfolios are drawn from these lists after diligent consideration and followed carefully for any changes in initial assumptions.  Decisions are made broadly across all of SCM’s portfolios rather than isolated buy/hold decisions.
