About
Clark & Stuart provides discretionary investment management primarily to high‑net‑worth individuals and their families, as well as small businesses and not‑for‑profit institutions, overseeing about $195.6 million in client assets across roughly 178 accounts and three advisors. The firm generally does not serve non‑high‑net‑worth individual clients, typically recommends a $500,000 minimum, and requires clients to specify custodians and any industries or companies that should be avoided before accepting discretionary authority.
The firm practices a conservative‑growth, long‑term, fundamental equity strategy that emphasizes high‑quality companies with steady profit and dividend growth, holding concentrated portfolios typically comprised of fewer than 25 stocks and maintaining low turnover. It relies on proprietary research, will manage balanced equity‑and‑fixed‑income portfolios when appropriate (favoring U.S. Treasuries and highly rated corporates with maturities under ten years), and manages each client’s account separately rather than commingling assets.
The brochure discloses recent material changes, including the addition of a part‑time research assistant effective October 1, 2025, and explains custody arrangements such as client authorization for fee deductions from Schwab custodial accounts. Compared with many peers, the firm typically avoids mutual funds unless requested, does not solicit new clients or advertise, and generally executes separate equity trades for individual client accounts rather than routinely aggregating orders.

Not sure where to start?
We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.
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. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.
Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
