About

Southern Capital Management serves individual clients, including retirement accounts, Roth IRAs, trusts, and private accounts, offering retirement income planning and wealth-management advice. The firm provides performance analysis and asset-allocation reports on a weekly, monthly, or quarterly basis by internet or mail upon client request.

The firm’s investment approach blends top‑down macroeconomic analysis with fundamental equity screening—reviewing roughly 100 industry groups and 1,000 companies on a quarterly cycle—and favors a “growth at a reasonable price” philosophy with individual securities intended to be held for a full market cycle. Technical analysis is used to time entry and exit points, asset-allocation models are reviewed quarterly, and advice is delivered via telephone and email following an extensive client interview.

Southern Capital is notable for operating strictly on a non‑discretionary basis and for not holding or transmitting client securities, leaving final trade decisions to clients—a practice that is uncommon among peers. The firm also issues regular written market commentary and printable/pdf reports with charts, executes trades in listed securities through Altruist Financial LLC, and does not engage in options, derivatives, futures, or insurance products.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
