Invest in the World

WHO?

The intention behind creating Houndstooth Investment Management is to help investors navigate the world’s markets with confidence and ease. By viewing the world as a interconnected network of asset classes, Houndstooth is able take advantage of macro trends within individual assets before the macro shift occurs. Shifts in the markets start small and eventually grow into larger moves. By being able to identify exactly which assets are moving in a new direction, we are able to capture macro moves much sooner. This allows investors to have their money positioned at the proper beginning and end of trends, instead of an “always invested” approach that results in average returns.

NOT QUARTERLY, every day.

Markets don’t fluctuate on a quarterly basis, they move every minute of everyday. At Houndstooth Investment Management, we pride ourselves on adjusting portfolios on daily basis to take advantage of current market conditions for our clients benefit. This attention to detail is a requirement to help clients reach their financial goals. Consistent monitoring is critical to ensure balance between portfolio growth and preservation.
