Approach
Brooktree Capital Management seeks to compound client capital at a better than market average rate over long periods of time. We do so using the below approach:
- We invest in companies that are publicly traded.
- We conduct extensive research to identify exceptional businesses and concentrate in our best ideas.
- When making an investment we seek to pay a fair to discounted price.
- Permanent loss of capital is the risk we guard against, not volatility.
- Our approach leads us to generally ignore broader market noise and focus on individual equity securities.
- We are agnostic to market cap, industry classificaiton, and style box.
- We believe focusing on the atrributes of the business, and not over paying, will result in superior long term results and decreased risk.
- We implement all of this via separately managed accounts.
