Salus Capital Management (SCM) offers three investment strategies that are based on a market neutral, long/short equity investment approach. These strategies range from conservative to growth-oriented, depending on each investor's return objectives and risk tolerance. The firm's market neutral strategy is designed as a cash/fixed-income alternative. The strategy seeks to outperform T-Bills with low risk and a low correlation to returns from equity and fixed-income investments. SCM's market neutral equitized strategy is designed as an enhanced S&P 500 index alternative. The strategy seeks to outperform the S&P 500 while maintaining approximately the same volatility as the risk level of the S&P 500. The firm's 130/30 Enhanced Equity strategy is designed to offer greater return potential than traditional long-only portfolios through capitalizing on returns from short equity investments. Though not limited by sector, SCM tends to invest in the stocks of US mid-cap and large-cap companies in the utilities, finance, health technology and consumer non-durables sectors. The firm maintains a high turnover rate.
