After trending towards Large Cap for several months, Northlake’s Market Cap model triggered a Large Cap signal for March.

The accounts do not all have to be managed by Northlake Capital Management to qualify. The new commission schedule for qualifying clients is $12.95 per trade for up to 1000 shares […]

Northlake’s Market Capitalization and Style models held firm for February with Mid Cap and Value signals. The Market Cap model continued its drift toward large cap and is about as close as possible to shifting to large cap as it can get without actually hitting the trigger.

Despite the fantastic performance of shares of Apple Computer, including today’s big run-up on the company’s outstanding fourth quarter earnings results, I believe the opportunity for substantial further gains exist. Consequently, client portfolios purchased a trading position in Apple shares (AAPL) after some of the morning enthusiasm wore off. The investment thesis is that the […]
