Directional Asset Management, LLC

Directional Asset Management, LLC is an independent, single-advisor registered investment adviser that provides discretionary portfolio management and financial planning primarily for individual and high-net-worth clients; its ADV also indicates the firm advises charitable organizations in addition to individuals. The firm constructs individualized Investment Policy Statements and implements strategies across separately managed accounts that include equities, ETFs, fixed income, mutual funds, REITs and select private placements.

The firm combines fundamental, technical, charting and cyclical analysis to build portfolios and documents each client’s goals, time horizon and risk tolerance in an IPS. It uses both long- and short-term trading and, when authorized, employs margin borrowing, short sales and options writing, and may direct clients to third‑party managers for specific mandates.

Several operational features in the ADV distinguish the firm from many peers: it discloses the use of leverage and derivatives in client accounts (practices that are relatively uncommon among independent solo advisers) and the firm notes a resolved administrative enforcement matter with state regulators in August 2025. The ADV also discloses that the firm’s owner owns the commercial property leased to the firm and that fee‑sharing arrangements with third‑party managers may be used, items that prospective clients may consider when evaluating conflicts and operational practices.
