Recommended by Invest Offshore
We do not make investment recommendations. However, for Client's who do not want to self-direct their own investment decisions we do recommend to them top-tier Advisory or Discretionary Management "Wealth Managers" who utilize an All Weather Retirement Income methodology. By All Weather I mean that the portfolio is actively managed at all times both Long and Short. The Portfolio is kept current to capture gains in "things" which go up and to capture gains from "things" which go down.
We do not recommend "Wealth Managers" who attempt to predict the future direction of any investment nor those who would use a "buy and hold" strategy. Buy and Hold is not an investment strategy and it has been proven time and time again that non-correlated asset allocation does not work. Active Long and Short management does work when applied to investments that have a market maker and for which instant liquidity is guaranteed without gates or blocks.
In summary: the Advisory or Discretionary Manager we would recommend for a retirement plan would be better than stocks, bonds, funds and bank deposits. With an All Weather portfolio a drop, shall we say, of 90% in the Stock market would create a massive income to the portfolio.
These Advisors and Managers never invest in Mutual Funds because a diversified mutual fund can not be hedged!
We assist with structures for tax efficiency FROM offshore. We do not provide investment advise.
Billionaires Dumping Stocks, Economists Know Why
Despite the 6.5% stock market rally over the last three months, a handful of billionaires are quietly dumping their American stocks . . . and fast.
Warren Buffett, who has been a cheerleader for U.S. stocks for quite some time, is dumping shares at an alarming rate. He recently complained of "disappointing performance" in dyed-in-the-wool American companies like Johnson & Johnson, Procter & Gamble, and Kraft Foods.
In the latest filing for Buffett's holding company Berkshire Hathaway, Buffett has been drastically reducing his exposure to stocks that depend on consumer purchasing habits. Berkshire sold roughly 19 million shares of Johnson & Johnson, and reduced his overall stake in "consumer product stocks" by 21%. Berkshire Hathaway also sold its entire stake in California-based computer parts supplier Intel.
With 70% of the U.S. economy dependent on consumer spending, Buffett's apparent lack of faith in these companies' future prospects is worrisome.
Unfortunately Buffett isn't alone.
Fellow billionaire John Paulson, who made a fortune betting on the subprime mortgage meltdown, is clearing out of U.S. stocks too. During the second quarter of the year, Paulson's hedge fund, Paulson & Co., dumped 14 million shares of JPMorgan Chase. The fund also dumped its entire position in discount retailer Family Dollar and consumer-goods maker Sara Lee.
Finally, billionaire George Soros recently sold nearly all of his bank stocks, including shares of JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup, and Goldman Sachs. Between the three banks, Soros sold more than a million shares.
So why are these billionaires dumping their shares of U.S. companies?
After all, the stock market is still in the midst of its historic rally. Real estate prices have finally leveled off, and for the first time in five years are actually rising in many locations. And the unemployment rate seems to have stabilized.
