Stock Pro

Stock Pro (Brockman Capital Management, LLC DBA Stock Pro) provides investment advisory services mainly to individual clients, including high net worth individuals, and to certain pension or profit-sharing plans; the firm reports managing about $39.2 million for roughly 87 clients across two advisors. Services include discretionary portfolio management through Standard and Pro account tiers, model portfolios, and a subscription-based information service that sends market insights and trade alerts via email and SMS for self-directed investors.

The firm combines customized asset allocation and model-portfolio management with an active, data-driven approach: Pro Accounts use a proprietary machine-learning system to inform dynamic strategies, while Standard Accounts emphasize diversified index funds and strategic allocation tailored to client risk tolerance. The firm discloses use of derivatives and options strategies (including options subscriptions and the ability to trade on margin and short-sell) where suitable, and it limits some option strategies to accounts meeting suitability and minimum requirements.

Noteworthy distinctions relative to many peers are the firm’s paid periodicals/trading subscription and its explicitly disclosed trading-alert service, the use of derivatives and options within separately managed Pro Accounts, and the presence of affiliated insurance activities — a principal is a licensed insurance agent who earns commissions and spends a portion of time on insurance sales. The brochure also describes staff involvement in formal teaching and in producing market analysis for subscribers, and the firm discloses these activities and related conflicts of interest rather than presenting them as ancillary.
