The TopGun election process consistently demonstrates the correlation between an investor’s interaction with the professionals he/she calls upon and exceptional investment judgement. TopGun Investment Minds deliver strong results. The sell-side pros know their investor clients and do not waste their votes. As one institutional sales professional put it, “These are the special people I love to work with and to whom I want to give my best.” A leading sell-side analyst put it this way, “A TopGun Investor is one who drills down and challenges my work, but inspires me to be a better professional.”
