American Values Investments | Serving Values Driven Investors

*** Click here to watch a short introductory video ***

We help investors encourage that which is good in corporate America by investing in public companies that best reflect the values of

integrity,
humility,
diligence and
caring

We have found, as a general rule, companies reflecting these values tend to do well, over the long term.

Although we are concerned about investment performance, work diligently to provide it, and monitor it closely we believe there are more important considerations including the impact our investments will have on our culture.

A four year track record of our American Hero Portfolios is included in the investment commentary portion of our current newsletter in the libary section of this website. Past performance is no assurance of future results.
