Equity Investment Process
A Dynamic Equity Framework
NCM Capital constructs equity portfolios reflecting the firm's
best thinking. Stocks that pass through our quantitative screens
are further measured against a wide range of fundamental criteria.
Fundamental analysis is performed on approximately 200 companies.
We assign a fair market value to each security
and prepare a written report for the Equity Roundtable, a weekly
meeting of all investment professionals. This process results
in a Buy List of approximately 100 stocks (70-80 stocks
for mid-cap portfolios) from which portfolios are constructed.
The sell discipline may be offensive, for profit-taking, or defensive,
for portfolio protection.
