The DSM Difference

Founded in 2001 by Daniel Strickberger and Stephen Memishian, DSM remains entirely employee- and founder-owned.
We invest our capital alongside our clients, always with discipline, never with speculation.

Partner Icon 1

Our valuation discipline differentiates us from other growth stock managers.

Partner Icon 2

DSM's growth stock portfolio is designed to manage downside risk when aggressive growth performs poorly.

Partner Icon 3

Portfolios are constructed on a foundation of rational P/Es and earnings/sales predictability.

Partner Icon 4

Our intensive proprietary research and earnings models help distinguish between "substance" and "noise."

Partner Icon 5

We intend to avoid speculative, overvalued, momentum-driven growth stocks.

Partner Icon 6

Our team's compensation is tied to client success, not just individual stock performance.
