"Buy and Hold" is NOT an investment strategy.
Investment management is many decisions -- First, "Should I buy this?"
And then the on-going decisions -- "Should I hold this?"
For most investors, it is implemented as "Buy and Forget"
Professional Investment Management requires:
Access to massive amounts of information on investments;
and
The mental ability and inclination to analyze that
information; and
The time and dedication to do so.
Many of our clients could have access and do have the mental ability (if not the inclination) but simply do not have the time or dedication to stay on top of their investments.
That is why they understand our approach to investments and our discussions about them.
That is also why they hire us -- for professional investment management.
