Friess Associates LLC
Friess Associates LLC Investment ManagersFinance Friess Associates is a discretionary investment manager that specializes in domestic (US) growth equity strategies. The firm offers growth equity strategies across the market capitalization spectrum ranging from micro to large. Accordingly, clients may choose a focused market capitalization strategy within that range or an all-capitalization strategy. They employ a research-driven investment process, and primarily utilize fundamental analysis for the selection of equity investments. Friess Associates will sell a stock when its research determines: (1) a company has deteriorating fundamentals such as contracting margins or reduced revenue growth, (2) investor expectations have become unrealistically high, (3) when it reaches Friess Associates’ internal target price, and (4) identifies a better investment idea. | Chief Investment Officer | 01/08/2022 |
