Discipline

If not now, when? We at Clausen Capital say "let us invest for you now" because we know that successful investing is a disciplined, continuous commitment - a commitment we have made and continue to make every day.

Clausen Capital Management understands the value of a disciplined investment style and how it positively impacts investment performance. By establishing tested rules and procedures, we can account for a wide range of possible market scenarios. Although it isn't possible to account for every eventuality in the markets, we can reduce the impact of daily market changes.

We do not use mechanical market timing systems. Rather, our models include technical analysis and have gone through extensive back testing, using both real and hypothetical data for not less than 10-year periods.

We make no predictions regarding market direction or market activity. Instead, we concentrate on understanding market trends and the level of market risk.

This constant monitoring, adherence to established discipline and clear methodology allows Clausen Capital to makes decisions about when to invest without procrastination - continually and effectively.

Finally we constantly perform "post mortem" reviews of our fund purchases after each buy and sell period to critique our decision-making process and our established investment disciplines.
