This company looks cheap, that company looks cheap, but the overall economy could completely screw it up. The key is to wait. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to do nothing. David Tepper
Will is our Fund Manager and joined Dowgate Wealth in September 2021 to launch and manage the SVS Dowgate Wealth European Growth Fund.
