Broad Views

Technical Philosophies
• Price Movements– Strength, direction, momentum and duration of trends in a
stock’s price– Primarily a mathematical/statistical analysis– Examples: MACD, Bollinger Bands, etc.
• Supply and Demand Reactions– Finding when the market is acting irrationally based on recent
price level changes– Example: point and figure charting

Fundamental Philosophies
• Value– Purchasing fundamentally underprice companies– Typical signs of value stocks include:

• High sales growth rates• Possibly low/no-profit (with expectations for a rapid flip)• High overhead for growth (expected to diminish)

Fundamental Philosophies
The key to investing is not assessing how much an industry is going to affect society, or how much it will
grow, but rather determining the competitive advantage of any given company and, above all, the
durability of that advantage. The products or services that have wide, sustainable moats around them are
the ones that deliver rewards to investors.-Warren Buffet
