Why Millennials Should Own Value Stocks
Institutional Client Service Manager Lauren Digani discusses why millennial investors may be best positioned to benefit from value exposure in their portfolios.
The Oakmark family of mutual funds is an extension of Harris Associates’ value-focused approach to investing. For more about our selection of funds, visit Oakmark.com.
There is a real disconnect between news flow on public companies and the value of the underlying businesses. The overwhelming majority of discussion is based on what may happen over the next year or so to create volatility in earnings, despite over 90% of intrinsic value depending on what happens after that. This provides opportunities for long-term, value-minded investors like us.
-Tony Coniaris, CFA, Partner, Co-Chairman
At Harris Associates, ensuring you receive the right solution for your current and long-term investment objectives is our ultimate goal. When you choose to work with us, we do more than focus on building your wealth. Your dedicated portfolio manager and service team also collaborate with you to build and sustain an ongoing relationship you and your family can rely on for years to come.
At Harris Associates, each of our clients has unique goals and needs. With the help of our deep and experienced research team, we seek to find attractive, long-term investment opportunities using our consistent value investment philosophy and process to create tailored portfolios for our clients.
—Mike Mangan, CFA, Portfolio Manager
Since 1976, we’ve been working with wealthy individuals and families to promote tailored investment solutions.
We value your perspective, your time and your unique situation; we listen before guiding clients to a solution.
We’re happy to work with your accountants and attorneys on all matters, including taxation, estate planning and charitable giving.
Harris does not provide tax or legal advice. Please consult your tax or legal advisor for detailed information applicable to your unique situation.
More than a style of investing, our commitment to generating value goes to the heart of everything we do.
Offering both an equity-focused strategy and a balanced option, these separate account portfolios are built for use when capital preservation and long-term growth are a portfolio’s primary objectives.
With a consistent, firm-wide investment philosophy and process, we build each separate account portfolio one stock at a time. Because the needs of each client are unique and the markets constantly change, the separate account relationship is a dynamic one.
