An Expert Proprietary Investment Process to Facilitate Your Desired Investment Results
For our Dividend Growth and Income accounts Sheaff Brock first identifies industry sectors that are fundamentally attractive for investing as well as currently out of favor—a Top Down Contrarian Sector Approach.
If an overall sector is in a decline, even the best “stock” within that sector is going to be affected.
Slightly contrarian, we focus on sectors currently out of favor, wait for them to demonstrate signs of improvement, and then enter those sectors.
By following the rotation of the market’s sectors, Sheaff Brock attempt to identify what sectors have the most relative value.
We then approach those sectors with our Bottom Up Screening process—a value approach in stock selection that encompasses Graham and Dodd value metrics as well as our own in-house proprietary growth selection metrics.
For the Best Ideas (Half large-cap and half small and mid-cap) and Upside Plus (All small and mid-cap) accounts a proprietary “quant” ranking system with a long-term successful history is employed by the manager for the initial screening. This system uses more than 80 variables in six categories – Momentum, Quality, Value, Financial Strength, Earnings Estimates, and Performance – to calculate Overall Scores. These scores are designed to measure the appeal of stocks of all types using a single yardstick, helping to find winners and avoid losers. Generally only top quintile scoring stocks are purchased in these portfolios. Both of these portfolios seek capital growth as their objective.
The Option Opportunity accounts utilize stocks from both of the above sources and covered calls are written on all positions. The objective is primarily high income from short-term capital gains and capital appreciation is a secondary objective.
The Preferred Income accounts invest in corporate preferred stocks with an objective of high income and capital preservation.

We look for the best companies that fit the criteria of the sector of interest and then search for a company with a high dividend with a history of raising their dividend. Lastly we generally will invest in a new position just prior to ex-dividend day in order to “capture” an additional dividend. The objective of this portfolio is rising income and capital appreciation.
