Investment returns in blue, Benchmarks in black (see full explanation below)

 

 

 

Total return figures (blue) are actual returns realized by a representative client invested in the designated investment strategy managed by Schultz Financial Mgmt Corp.  Client accounts may experience a +/- .5% annual variation in these values.   These figures are net of the maximum annual 1% annual investment management fee for accounts greater than $500,000.  Total returns figures for benchmark indices (black) are shown for comparison purposes with the corresponding investment strategy.

Definition of Terms

 

Investment Portfolio:

This is an investor's entire investment portfolio not including home, personal property, and liquid funds needed for living expenses and emergencies.

 

This may include brokerage accounts, IRAs, annuities, rental property and company retirement plans such as 401(k)s.

 

A portfolio should be tailored to meet an an investor's objectives.  Then it should be monitored and adjusted in order to control risk. 

 

Investment Style:

This refers to an investment approach to buying or selling securities within an asset class.  We use "core" and "trend following" to distinguish between two  distinctly different approaches that we use.

 

Our core investments would typically stay mostly invested throughout a full business cycle.

 

Our trend following investments attempt to reduce market exposure during downtrends in order to preserve capital.
