OUR ADAPT INVESTMENT STRATEGY

ADAPT Investment Strategy is what sets Caerus Private Wealth apart from the average investment strategy. ADAPT is an acronym for the five cornerstones that underpin our successful portfolio management in any market – Active, Disciplined, Asset Agnostic, Profitable, Trends. ADAPT is a data-based investment selection process which enhances returns while minimizing downside risk.
ACTIVE: As your Portfolio Managers, we are able to actively manage your investments. By law, portfolio managers have a fiduciary duty to act in the client’s best interest. This fiduciary duty is a standard that applies to lawyers and accountants, but does not apply to financial advisors.
As your fiduciary, we can quickly respond to unexpected market fluctuations and protect your assets in downturn markets. By delegating your active day-to-day investment decisions to your Caerus Private Wealth Portfolio Manager, you also give us the ability to take advantage of unforeseen investment opportunities for you.
DISCIPLINED: As your certified portfolio managers, we utilize our disciplined investment management strategy. We work in a very structured and strategic manner by researching, selecting, monitoring, and actively managing your investments. Our unique data-based investment strategy ensures we can maximize your future asset value while honouring your preferred risk tolerance.
ASSET AGNOSTIC: At Caerus Private Wealth, we are uncompromising – period. With our own personal investments at risk, we do not have a bias for asset allocation. We are what we refer to as “asset agnostic.” This gives us the ability to assess the risk-reward metrics for any asset class without bias in order to enhance the risk-adjusted return of our mandates. We are committed to undertaking fundamental and detailed asset analysis, which will enable strategic asset group alignment for our clients’ needs, goals and risk tolerance.
PROFITABLE: As we responsibly respond to market fluctuations, balancing your risk and rewards to yield financial gain is our central goal. We look for fundamental investment data pursuant to its ability to turn a sustainable profit on an ongoing basis. Investments that rise in price but don’t offer profitability are typically considered speculative in nature and come with greater risk. Our sound portfolio management focuses on a strong return on your investment, while mitigating your risk.
TRENDS: Using our unique “Caerus Strength Matrix” tool and trends charting, we are able to prudently seek data-based evidence of an investment’s strength relative to ther investments. Coupled with fundamental analysis, our the Caerus Strength Matrix looks at technical data supporting investment sentiment, price action and trends helpful in making informed transactions.
