James Brumley » Profile

James Brumley began his investment career as a broker with a prominent Wall Street firm. The core principles behind the advice he was dispensing as an adviser were diversifying, buying stocks with good fundamentals, and thinking long-term. Though the principles were sound, he soon realized they were incomplete in terms of generating and preserving his clients' wealth. He then moved on to become an analyst - and eventually the director of research - for a reputable subscription-based trading newsletter focused on technical analysis. As editor of the Small Cap Network newsletter, Brumley now follows both schools of thought in complimentary ways. His philosophy is simply that fundamentals tell you which stocks to buy or sell and technical analysis tells you when to buy or sell them.

James Brumley's Company

Bluegrass Portfolio Mgmt. Bluegrass Portfolio Management was built from the ground up to be a resource unlike any other media, data, or research source. Founder James Brumley's background includes everything from giving advice to 'buy and hold' investors based on fundamentals, to short term swing trade recommendations via a short-term trading newsletter. Now, as a freelance writer - and after years of good and bad experience - his website aims to do what others can't or won't.... help investors make money.

Valuations are important. The economy is important. Charts are important. Sentiment is important. Yet, most (if not all) other analysts and journalists assume only one of those approaches can work effectively. They're all important though, and should be equally incorporated into a stock-selection strategy. Regular readers of the bluegrassportfolio.com website and newsletter have grown to understand this holistic and complete approach.
