There is no single method for being a successful investor, but that doesn't mean our 25 years* of experience hasn't given us an edge. The market will always be unpredictable, but there are clear lessons from history, and independent in-depth research can pay off. We aim to follow a principled process to identify opportunities, allocate capital to our top ideas, and mitigate risk to deliver "North Star" returns for our partners.
*1623 Capital co-founder and CIO Jeff Fischer began investing long/short back in 1996 at our sister company, The Motley Fool LLC.
We are independent, fundamentals-focused investors who believe in a long-term, high-conviction approach.

Learn from history
We are students of business and the markets, but in a fast-changing world, we seek to remain open-minded and adaptable.
-
Identify strong companies
We look for businesses that we believe have aligned leadership teams, appealing valuations, and the potential to deliver consistent value to all stakeholders. (Of course, all investing involves risk, and our funds may not be suitable for all investors. We encourage you to read up on specific risks and conflicts in our fund offering documents!)
-
Invest with an ownership mindset
We approach investing with the mindset of a business owner, carefully researching each investment opportunity and taking responsibility for each decision we make.
We’ve built an experienced and stable investment team, starting with CIO and Portfolio Manager Jeff Fischer, who has been actively investing long/short since 1996. Based in Alexandria, Va., we pride ourselves on being independent systems thinkers utilizing a disciplined and principled approach to investing — and our aim is to be client-first in what we do each day.
