Our advisors understand that our success is completely dependent on producing superior long term results for our clients.  Everything from our fee structure to our investment selection is designed to put the interest of clients first.  We constantly refine our techniques in search of the optimum blend of risk and return, consistent with the risk tolerance of each client. 

Every investment from Treasury Bills and bank CDs to commodity futures or other derivatives entails risk.  FSG strives to maximize client returns relative to the amount of risk each client is comfortable with.  We do this by seeking out unrecognized value in “beaten down” economic sectors.  Although the performance in these sectors may initially lag, history shows that unpopular sectors tend to outperform “hot” sectors over the subsequent three to five years.  Our “dynamic asset allocation” approach adjusts those investments based on our own “top-down” macro economic analysis, investor sentiment indicators, and other proprietary tools that we continue to refine.  We resist the urge to follow the crowds and invest in the latest hot trend.  This rigorous and disciplined approach minimizes the emotional mistakes that doom most investors to disappointing returns and occasional devastating losses. Our approach has proven successful in producing a strong historical record of avoiding large portions of the losses typical of “bear” markets while capturing most or all of the gains in bull market moves. 

The principals at FSG are not in the business of “selling” investments.  Our asset based fees do not go up and down based on the number or size of transactions.  Client portfolios are clones of the portfolios we use for ourselves and our families.  Although each client account is separate; we treat our clients more like partners than customers.  We simultaneously buy and sell the same investments, at the same price for both ourselves and our clients.  This ensures that our self interest is in complete harmony with that of our investors. 

It is our job to put the interest of our clients first and earn their trust every day.
