That’s what our NEW Sungarden Institutional model signal portfolio service is all about
A NEW publishing subscription service offering direct access to a set of institutional-level investment portfolios. What I’m doing across nearly all of my own semi-retirement portfolio.
How this service came to be
Based on many conversations with subscribers and industry friends about what “gaps” we can fill in today’s manic and confusing investment publishing industry, here’s our summary of the type of sentiments and concerns we’ve heard:
“I’m a do-it-myself investor…but I can’t do what someone with 30+ years of professional investing acumen can do. And even if what I do works for a while, I want more than one model portfolio. I want to see the whole portfolio picture, then decide for myself what to mimic and what to use as research. Otherwise, I might only be as good as a strong market allows me to be.”
What this service provides
Direct access to a portfolio separated into 7 “buckets” which, combined, account for what I do with the vast majority of my liquid assets.
This is a research or “model signal” service, NOT personalized advice, so subscribers can customize it themselves, deciding what to use and how.
This is totally focused on practicing solid investment “hygiene” to try to avoid major losses, earn competitive portfolio income, and grow capital patiently.
The Sungarden Institutional site is now up, and we’ll be adding a lot more to it. We invite you to join the initial group of subscribers already on board.
