FAQS
As a Fiduciary, we do not charge commissions on buying or selling stocks. We are paid a management fee based on the total assets under management.
Our Nicholas Wealth fee analysis will help you uncover fund fees, annuity fees and other hidden fees your current financial advisor may be charging you. We may be able to potentially reduce or eliminate the excessive and hidden fees you may not realize you're paying.
We recommend a retirement rebalance for those who are approaching and in retirement.

We will stress test your portfolio to determine if having a higher allocation to lower volatility investments is appropriate.

A lower returning portfolio with a lower volatility can outperform a higher returning portfolio with higher volatility due to the fact that withdrawals during retirement significantly impact the total portfolio value. In retirement, investors who need income should have a larger allocation to lower volatility investments.
Yes. Our investment committee meets each quarter and selects stocks for our Nicholas Large Cap and Nicholas Dividend Growth equity SMA strategies. Each quarter the best ideas are brought forward and rebalances are made based on sector over/under weighting.
