About
Spark Asset Management Group is a state-registered investment adviser that provides discretionary asset management, retirement advice, and basic financial planning to individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations, and corporations. The firm manages client accounts on a continuing basis and offers both discretionary management (the bulk of its AUM) and limited non-discretionary services in certain circumstances, with financial planning included for managed clients at no additional charge.
Investment approach centers on tactical asset allocation through the firm’s Spark Trends models, which combine trend-following algorithms with technical and fundamental research and primarily use ETFs, mutual funds and sub-accounts, with periodic rebalancing. Spark also offers strategic allocation models and specialty “go-anywhere” portfolios that can be more concentrated and actively managed to a client’s objectives.
Notably, Spark manages a subset of separately managed and specialty accounts that may use derivatives and leveraged products—such as options, leveraged/inverse ETFs and ProFunds sub-accounts—an approach that is less common among peers in this category. The firm’s advisors are also registered representatives of a broker-dealer and licensed insurance agents, a dual registration disclosed in the brochure that creates potential conflicts of interest because compensation from those roles is separate from advisory fees.

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
