03/16/09 PRESS RELEASE: A New Way to Look at Equities- From Peter Lundstedt, CIO, Equity Portfolio Strategist, Greenwich Asset Management Group, LLC
A New Way to Look at Equities
Seven measurements
From: Peter Lundstedt, CIO, Equity Portfolio Strategist, Greenwich Asset Management Group, LLC
I use a new way of looking at stocks to invest equity portfolio's and it's done inside a Separately Managed Institutional Account held with an independent custodian, such as Schwab Institutional, with real time client monitoring in what I call a Client Supervised Investment Account.
My goal is to provide a superior equity portfolio construction methodology. Greenwich Asset Management Group, LLC does not custody assets and works with limited trading authority only. Send for more information to: gamgllc@earthlink.net or visit www.gamgllc.com

1. Seven measurements - A new way to look at stocks
1. Seven measurements - A new way to look at stocks
I use seven measurements when searching for stocks to add to a portfolio. Very few stocks have all seven measurements, at the same time. These measurements reflect a stocks' strength on a fundamental level first and then a technical level. These are companies which rank in the top 15% on all seven levels as measured by leading financial information providers and represent the financial health and overall demand by stock buyers. We then give each stock a score; (a higher score equals higher 'confidence' in the stocks held in the portfolio).
Our way of making money is to buy good stocks with a high score and, depending on the market, hold them for 3 to 5 years, and sell the ones that don't follow their long term trend line. Add 20 years of experience and you have a workable system which we think can benefit almost any portfolio. Call us to see more information if you think this philosophy would fit with your style of investing:
2. What I can do for you
I can show you how each stock you hold really ranks; which stocks to keep and which stocks not to hold. I can show you how the top half of your portfolio has performed compared to the bottom half. I can show you how your top 10 stocks performed and then the top 15 and the top 20. I feel I can position Institutional equity portfolios in a better way by holding only the highest ranked issues in a broadly diversified portfolio while at the same time being client specific. So, if you need an energy portfolio, I can create an evenly weighted portfolio of 30 - 50 of the highest ranked energy stocks. If you have an asset allocation model, I can create an evenly weighted portfolio of the highest ranked stocks in each sector chosen. If you need to 'reconstruct' a health care portfolio, I can create an evenly weighted portfolio of 30 - 50 of the highest ranked health care stocks, and so on. Here is how I do it:
I use seven measurements when searching for stocks to add to or to 'reconstruct' a portfolio. These measurements reflect a stocks' strength on a fundamental level first and then a technical level. These are companies which rank in the top 15% on all seven levels as measured by leading financial information providers and represent the financial health and overall demand 'by stock buyers'. I then give each stock a score; (a higher score = higher confidence). Currently, a perfect score would be a 598. I found that the higher the score, the fewer the number of stocks were available. I like to limit the portfolio to stocks with a minimum score of 470 to 490 which I feel gives you a higher probability of success. You could imagine ranking all 500 stocks in the S&P 500 and creating an evenly weighted portfolio with just the top 50 or top 100 stocks with the highest rank.
For example, with a $100 million dollar separately managed account held at Schwab Institutional, I would most likely divide it into 30 - 50 evenly weighted segments and then fill each compartment with higher score, stock selections. I learned this style of portfolio management from the former manager of the now $140 billion NY State Common retirement fund, who traded actual client accounts thru me for five years using this technique. While at the State, he had 12 money managers under him. He saw how each one did over time, which systems worked and which to avoid. He settled upon a sector rotation model that averaged 25% per year. I've added the seven measurements above to the formula, among other important criteria, to create a uniquely diversified Institutional quality evenly weighted equity investment process. I operate under the theoretical assumption that, it doesn't matter what you own; what really matters is what other people are buying and how diversified you want to be.
If this concept fits with you, call or email for more information:

03/16/09 The Ax Once Again Falls At The Greenwich Time
As part of a move to reduce costs by 20 percent, Hearst Corp. said Monday 48 employees will accept buyouts at its group of Connecticut newspapers.
Employees of the Connecticut Post, News-Times of Danbury, The Advocate of Stamford, Greenwich Time and the Brooks Community Newspapers covering several Fairfield County communities were told in a letter from Senior Vice President and Hearst Newspaper Group Publisher Mark E. Aldam the buyouts and additional reductions are necessitated by a significant deterioration in business conditions and the strain of a deepening recession.
"Most of the individuals accepted into the voluntary buyout plan will be leaving the company within two to four weeks," Aldam wrote. "However, a few exceptions are anticipated to ensure a smooth transition."
It is unclear how many jobs will be shed by Hearst because Aldam said Monday the cost savings will be created through more than just employment reductions. He said other savings could be found in newsprint and elsewhere.
He said this doesn't mean there will be one newspaper because it is important to preserve the local reporting in its four dailies and six weeklies.
In This Case There Is At Least Four Sides, The Meyhem With The Police, Gang Activity In The Area, The Greenwich Police Departments Community Relations And The Minority Police Officer's Lawsuit That Alleges That Discrimination Is Pervasive In The Greenwich Police Department.
Lazy Greenwich Time Reporter Meridith Blake Ignored Everything Except The Meyhem With The Police Department And Then Only Used One Sourse .....
Sgt. James Bonney The Head Of The Greenwich Police Union
Greenwich Roundup Is Not Saying That Sgt. Bonney Is Not A Good And Dedicated Policeman. No Officer Bonney Lives In And Cares About Greenwich.
In Fact, Greenwich Roundup, Thinks Bonney
Is One Of The Best Police Officers In Greenwich.
Moreover, Bonney Has Proved Himself A Very Able Union Leader Who Taught Former First Selectman Jim Lash And The Previous Police Cheif A Thing Or Two
But This Is Not About How Good An Officer Or Union Leader Jim Bonney Is Or Is Not.
It Is About Hearst Newspaper Reporter Lazy Merideth Blake's Continual Failure To Be Impartial And To Seek Out And Listen To All Members Of Greenwich Society When She Reports In The Town.
This Is Why Greenwich Blogger Bill Clarke
It Is Time For Greenwich Time Managing Editor Bruce Hunter, To Start Following Hearst Media Journalistic Standards And To Report All The Facts.
Don't Be Like Ex-Greenwich Time Editor Joe "The Censor" Pisani And Pick And Chose Sides.
Just Tell It Like It Is And Let The Chips Fall Where They May.
At The Very Least Bruce Hunter Should Of Had Lazy Merideth Blacke Mention That Greenwich High School Security Officer Carlos Franco, Former Greenwich Police Department Officer Terral Hardy And Greenwich Police Officers John Rodriguez, Scott Johnson, Carlos, John Woodward, Robert Brown, and Vincent O'Banner Contention That There Was A Pattern Of Racial Discrimination Against Minority Members Of The Greenwich Public.
Even If Lazy Meridith Blake Doesn't Have Any Contacts With The Members Of Greenwich Society That Have To Live On Davis Avenue And In Wilbur Peck Court, She Still Could File A Freedom Of Information Request With Greenwich Housing Authority Honcho Terry Mardula For The Video Of The Incident.
The Multiple Wilbur Peck Survelance Cameras Don't Lie
They Just Report The Facts And Let The Chips Fall Where They May.
What A Better Way For The New Greenwich Time Publisher Michelle McAbee To Demonstrate The Power Of Hearst Newspaper's New Internet And Video Inititive By Putting The Housing Authority Riot Video On The Front Page Of The Greenwich Time Home Page.
Video Of A Japaness Coral Group Is Sooooooooo Cute.
That Greenwich Time Video Of Those Sweet Little Oriental Angelic Singers Is Just Sooooooooo Charming And Delightful.
But This Type Of Greenwich Time Video Is Not Hard News .....
It's Just Cute Fluff
On February 2nd, Hearst Newspaper President President Steven Swartz promised Greenwich Time Readers A Management Shake-Up And The '100 Days of Change' Initiative Aimed At Challenging Traditional Thinking At The Green Kitty Litter Liner In Order To Retool The Local Daily Publishing Disaster.
On February 2nd, Swartz Boldly Issued A Statement that said, "100 Days of Change' is something that all of our newspapers are invested in. We will not stand idle; we have been working for some time on reinventing our businesses while demonstrating to advertisers and readers the exceptional value that newspapers deliver."
Ten Months Ago Ex-Greenwich Time Managing Editor Jim Zebora Refused To Go After The Survelance Video When The Greenwich Police Department Fired A weapon three Times Inside Greenwich High School.
Isn't it curious that Greenwich High School operates has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on closed circuit television cameras that cover virtually every nook and cranny of the school, both inside and out, and employs the biggest security staff of any school in the state of Connecticut, and also stations an armed police officer there full-time who has made literally scores of arrests the past three years, yet when a 140 pound student gets 50,000 volts three different times the Greenwich Time is too afraid to video which is a public document.
Now Failed Greenwich Time Managing Editor Bruce Hunter Refuses To Go After The Wilbur Peck Court Survelance Video Of The Madness And Meyhem That Occurred Between 12 Greenwich Police Officers And 50 Civilians.
Failed Greenwich Time Managing Editor Bruce Hunter Only Published An Article That Has Lazy Reporter Meridith Blake Only Interviewing The Greenwich Police Depatment's Union President.
So Far It Looks Like Hearst Newspaper President Steven Swartz Is Delivering "100 Days Of Bull Crap" To Greenwich Time Readers.
Bruce Hunter"s Lack Of Journaistic Judgement Is A Liability To Hearst Newspaper President Steven Swartz's Plans To Revitalize The Greenwich Time
Mr. Swartz Is Going To Fail Miseralby If He Continues To Allow Greenwich Time Managing Editor Bruce Hunter To Make Daily Decissions That Are Damaging The Credibility Of The Newspaper.
WINS-AM New York

According to State Police, two men disrupted a hearing by screaming and yelling at judicial marshals in state Superior Court in Stamford. The two allegedly resisted arrest after the verbal altercation and were pepper-sprayed before being taken into custody, police said.
Christopher Flores, 21, 70 Wilbur Peck Court, and Miles Sy, 20, of 318 Delavan Ave., were charged with interfering with an officer and breach of peace for the courthouse episode, police said. Sy was additionally charged with assault on a peace officer capable of causing harm, police said.
State Police responded to the court house, at 123 Hoyt St., at 1:07 p.m. after receiving word of a disturbance.....
BRUCE HUNTER HAS CHOSEN TO COVER THIS
Christopher and Daniel Flores are related, Sherman said.....
The two men were charged with inciting a riot, breach of peace, interfering with a police officer and inciting injury to persons or property, police said. They are both being held by the state Department of Corrections......
Jorge Cardenas-Rey Holds Some Type Of Leadership Position
In The Gang That Greenwich Police Chief
David Ridberg Says Doesn't Exist.
Further, Greenwich Police Officers Are Angry That It Was Not Released That Jorge Cardenas- was arrested on Valentines day morning and charged for a very similar incident that did not escalate in to an out of control situation.
In The Valentines Day incident Jorge Cardenas-Rey
was arrested for interfering with a police officer
and disorderly conduct.
Greenwich Police Officers say after that the Valentine's Day arrest, and many after other previous incidents, they have repeatedly complained that Gang activity is getting out of hand in the Davis Avenue Area.
But, Greenwich Police Chief David Ridberg just ignores their complaints
