Opportunities for Active Investors
Sionna believes that there are opportunities for active investors to beat the market's return in a sideways market. We are optimistic that quality, value-based stock selection will outperform the overall range-bound market, as it has in the past.
Keys to Investing in a Sideways Market
- Focus on Dividend Yield
Yield is a consistent source of return and can act as a floor for a stock's price in volatile times. - Select Low Multiple Stocks
Low multiple stocks tend to offer better capital protection – high multiple stocks have much more room to collapse.
Defensive and Down-Market Protection in Sideways Markets
Our clients pay us to wear bear-coloured glasses, be pessimistic in nature and judge investment return against investment risk. Our relative value approach is designed to provide a significant margin of safety to protect client capital.
