WEEKLY THOUGHTS

The Chenmark team is not a big drinking group.  We’re generally the type that opt for water during a work dinner and club soda with lime at a cocktail party (boring, we know).  That said, when back in beautiful British Columbia, we always make an exception for a delicious Okanagan Cider (apple or peach, preferably).  These ciders are simply delicious and unlike anything we’ve been able to find in America. 

At Chenmark, we try to maintain a bias for action. This means we attempt to drive toward decisions with an eye toward championing those initiatives that will earn a return (make things better), while trying to identify and eliminate those things which will result in a tax either now or in the future. Importantly, we don’t necessarily mean ‘return’ or ‘tax’ in the traditional finance sense of the word, as benefits or costs can manifest themselves in many forms across many time frames.
