Investment Philosophy

Astor Financial is a firm built on the belief that investment opportunities arise based on the ability to identify fundamental trends and changes in the economic environment.

Our investment philosophy revolves around identifying, with a high degree of probability, the current cycle an asset class or economy is experiencing: expansion (bull market), peak (top), contraction (bear market), and trough (bottom). The ability to identify cycles within a broad range of non-correlating assets can generate amazing long term risk-adjusted returns. By adhering to a disciplined strategy of identifying the current phase of the business cycle for each sector or asset class and continuously monitoring risk and the relationships between the assets, we are confident that the results over the entire cycle might greatly outperform traditional equity benchmarks.

 

Mutual Funds involve risk including possible loss of principal. The Fund may invest in small, less well-known companies, which may be subject to more erratic market movements than large-cap stocks; foreign securities, which are subject to currency fluctuations and political uncertainty; and derivative securities, which may carry market, credit, and liquidity risks. These risks may result in greater share price volatility.

Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Astor Long/Short ETF Fund. This and other important information about the Fund is contained in the prospectus, which can be obtained by calling 877-738-0333. The prospectus should be read carefully before investing. The Astor Long Short ETF Fund is distributed by Northern Lights Distributors, LLC member FINRA.
