Avatar Associates Avatar Associates Investment ManagersFinance Momentum Investment Partners' product offerings include overlay, managed 401k, balanced, defensive equity and core equity. The firm customizes their products to meet individual client objectives using a process that employs quantitative, top-down, macroeconomic models. Their asset allocation model is a carefully calibrated, objective measure of economic factors and market trends. It is based on the fundamental premise that liquidity is the key force in driving stock and bond markets. Momentum Investment Partners' equity portfolios include a mixture of stocks and cash equivalents. They select stocks that demonstrate the ability to grow earnings in the future but are relatively undervalued today. To find these companies, the firm combines computer-driven quantitative research and qualitative research. Stocks are chosen through the equity selection process described above. For bonds, Momentum Investment Partners concentrates on US government and agency issues, avoiding the risks associated with corporate debt. Portfolio managers actively adjust maturity and duration and tailor their holdings using bullet, barbell or ladder strategies, based on current bond market research and analysis. Momentum Investment Partners' sell discipline requires them to sell a stock or bond under the following conditions: (1) asset allocation requires reduced market exposure (2) stock fundamentals or bond relative values deteriorate or (3) the stop-loss point is reached for any given stock.
