February Journal Intro: Smart Investors Don’t Predict the Market. They Do This Instead.
Today marks a significant milestone for our clients and our firm—the official launch of The Longview Advantage ETF (EBI), live as of this morning. We’re thrilled to announce that we met our ambitious goal, attracting over $500 million in new assets from our own clients and a carefully selected group of independent advisory firms and family offices.
Remarkably, 96% of our own clients have enthusiastically joined us in this exciting new chapter, reinforcing their commitment to an evidence-based approach and long-term thinking. For context, launching an ETF with this level of initial commitment places us among the most successful ETF debuts in the industry, a clear validation of our strategy and shared vision.
However, even as we celebrate this milestone (and yes, that’s a rendering of our ETF proudly displayed in Times Square! The real thing happens tomorrow), we remain steadfast in our primary focus: bringing clarity and confidence to our clients’ financial lives. Whether it’s guiding you through a complex retirement decision, strategically timing a Roth conversion, starting a new 529 plan for your family, or launching an innovative ETF, our commitment remains unwavering.
Your trust allows us to bring the most important ideas to life. Smart investors don’t predict the market—they focus on what matters and what they can control. Thank you for partnering with us as we continue taking the long view together.
