Wealth Management and Investment Philosophy
Longview’s value orientation minimizes emotional behavior in the investment process.
Our experienced investment team realizes that long term results are best created by buying securities at low valuations. Usually, the market gives us these low value opportunities at times of economic stress, when emotional investors are selling. The emotions of fear and greed are paramount in the investment process. As Warren Buffett so aptly states, "We simply attempt to be fearful when others are greedy and to be greedy when others are fearful." When assets are undervalued, our team wants to hold more equity; when stocks are valued at rich prices, the wisest decision is to hold less.
“Our investment team realizes that the greatest investment returns are created when others are selling in panic.”
