Castle Pines Investment Management LLC

Castle Pines Investment Management provides discretionary portfolio management primarily to high‑net‑worth individuals, related trusts and retirement plans, and foundations. The firm manages a limited number of client relationships and generally requires a minimum aggregate account size (typically $500,000), and it does not target non‑high‑net‑worth individual clients.

The firm structures accounts around a written Investment Policy Statement and combines a macroeconomic framework with fundamental equity analysis, bond ratings, and extensive technical analysis to set entry and exit points. It uses a proprietary valuation and relative‑strength selection system across a defined universe (large‑cap indices, selected ETFs/ETNs and fixed‑income funds) and, for certain clients, implements covered‑call strategies.

Notable features include a small, concentrated client base with assets managed on a discretionary basis and frequent block or aggregated executions that include principal accounts alongside client accounts. The firm also commonly constructs portfolios with sector concentrations that may favor recently out‑of‑favor industries, and it retains proxy‑voting discretion while generally voting with management except on specific governance issues.
