*Awards and recognitions by unaffiliated publications not be construed by a client or prospective client as a guarantee that the client will experience a certain level of results if Kovitz Investment Group Partners, LLC (“Kovitz”) is engaged, or continues to be engaged, to provide investment advisory services, nor should they be construed as a current or past endorsement of Kovitz or its representatives by any of its clients. Rankings published by magazines and others are generally based on information prepared and/or submitted by the recognized adviser. The Hulbert Financial Digest rankings are based on the principle of monitoring a newsletter’s model portfolio and executing recommended trades at the prices prevailing when an anonymous subscriber would have first been able to act on the recommendation. The Prudent Speculator was evaluated from the time period 06/30/1980- present. Note that since January 2016, when the Hulbert Financial Digest was closed by MarketWatch/Dow Jones, the HFD has continued tracking investment newsletters under a business model in which newsletters pay to be audited. All monitored newsletters pay the same fee. Click here for a more in depth review of the methodology.

Key Points in the Comprehensive Guide
Preview of the valuable insights you’ll discover in your free guide
Stay Invested
Patience and consistency often outperform perfect timing.
Identify Valued Stocks
We aim to uncover what we believe are undervalued opportunities others miss.
Market Volatility is an Opportunity
Short-term uncertainty can be an opportunity to strengthen your long-term portfolio.
Think Long-Term
Instead of trying to time the market, invest consistently and stay disciplined. Downturns are temporary, but compounding returns create lasting wealth.
Sitting on the Sidelines May Prove Costly
Investors who avoid equities risk falling behind, missing compounding returns and losing purchasing power over time. Cash and bonds offer safety, but lack the upside potential of equities.
The Insight includes bonus sections on strategies to invest idle cash and portfolio construction.
