Our approach is an active security selection with passive asset allocation. We invest heavily in common stocks, but vary our holdings to include companies of all sizes and industry groups. We seek to achieve sufficient diversification by abstaining from investing more than 5% of the total assets in a single security unless it has significant upside potential, and we make an exception for ETFs and index funds as they represent a basket of securities. Our main goal is to identify and invest in common stocks with high potential for both short- and long-term capital appreciation. Our secondary goal is to invest in common stocks with steady income. When potential for rewards are high, we also enter into derivative

Marc 1 Realty is a real estate company located in the Charlotte Metro area of North Carolina. This company has grown from only serving two of the smallest counties in the area to becoming one of the largest real estate firms in the metropolitan area over the past twenty years (Mosteller, 2015; Trulia, Inc., 2015). The company successfully thrived during the economic recession and is now facing a steadily improving market (Mosteller G. , 2015; Koepke, 2015; Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, 2015).

Instead of relying solely on external management, they allocate 68% of their endowment to internal management and the remaining 32% to outside asset managers. In order to do this, HMC employed 38 investment professionals and 148 other employees whose jobs were solely to manage the $19 billion dollars in total assets, of which $15.1 billion were endowment funds. This management strategy generated expenses of around $93 million dollars per year (49 basis points), and produced a real return of 11.3%, after expenses. This method of investment costs about 19 more basis points than a passive strategy and about 51 basis points cheaper than a typical active investment strategy using 100% outside managers. Harvard University opted for this strategy because it is cheaper than a traditional active management strategy while still allowing them the ability to adjust their risks taken and expected returns in order to remain on the “efficient frontier” of what return was required to meet their internal institutional goals.

Momentum is the phenomenon that stocks which have performed well in the past will continue to perform well in the future, and that stocks which have performed poorly will continue to perform poorly. Therefore a momentum investment strategy is to invest in short term portfolios that have high returns in the past, and to short those with low returns over the same period.

Mutual funds are an easy, convenient way to invest, without having to worry about choosing individual stocks. A mutual fund can be defined as a single portfolio of stocks, bonds, and/or cash managed by an investment company on behalf of many investors. The investment company manages the fund, and sells shares in the fund to individual investors.
