Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. (PRNewswire) December 10, 2009—Weiss Capital Management, Inc. (www.WeissCM.com), an independent Registered Investment Adviser (RIA), announced today that the company and its principals Sharon A. Daniels and Steven P.

While recent economic turbulence caught much of the financial community by storm, Weiss Capital Management has been offering niche investment programs designed to capitalize on all market conditions for more than 25 years. Its Bear Market Strategy, introduced after the Internet bubble began to collapse in 2000, aims for long-term growth from prolonged and widespread stock market declines using effective hedging strategies.

“The time to prepare for any storm—financial or otherwise—is not when one is already bearing down on you,” said Weiss Capital Management Vice President Steve Chapman.

“We all know storms are inevitable, we just don’t know the precise moment they will strike. At Weiss Capital, we have been offering solutions designed specifically for turbulent markets for at least 10 years, as well as a full range of specialized strategies designed to weather all market conditions.”

Chapman continued, “Our established track record in Bear markets is no accident, it’s the result of careful planning and effective use of proprietary strategies that are not typically offered by most advisors.”

According to the Investment Advisor article, “While many firms hunkered down and waited out the 2008 storm, top firms like Weiss Capital [Management] began revamping their businesses to meet the changing needs of the marketplace—and positioning themselves to take advantage of the recovery.”

Weiss Capital Management President Sharon Daniels said, “It is always exciting to garner industry recognition; particularly for adherence to, and development of, best practices that benefit our industry overall.

“At Weiss, success does not depend simply on market performance. We continue to flourish because we focus on consistently meeting the needs of an evolving clientele; measuring our successes by the growing numbers of families who entrust us with their hard-earned assets.”
