In this exclusive 3,391 word interview with the Wall Street Transcript, Mr. Wallace details his current outlook for investors and his unique approach to creating above market returns:
“So Shorepath is a couple of things, all in the pursuit of one goal. And that goal is compounding our clients’ money at superior rates of return over long periods of time in a tax-effective manner.
The goal of this whole exercise is to leave people better off after having entrusted their money to us. And what we’re less concerned about is short-term performance, although you can’t ignore it totally. But long-term performance and long-term generation of capital appreciation is our goal.
And as a result of having that as our singular focus, we implement it in a certain way.

One example of this unique approach is a relatively new portfolio position:
“…One of the ones that’s interesting and we’ve added some recently to is Schlumberger (NYSE:SLB). And this is one of the things that’s interesting in this whole move.
Schlumberger is really one of the best-managed oil service companies out there. But today, the stock has gotten so cheap that its dividend yield exceeds by a good margin its corporate bond yield.”
