BDMC Asset Management is a DBA of Black Diamond Marketing Communications, Inc. It is a privately held corporation investing its own capital and does not seek, solicit or invest outside client moneys. It began in the wake of the founder’s tenure on the trading floor of the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) and his involvement in Harvey L. Christensen Real Estate, a family owned and operated real estate investment company. The founder spent nearly a decade on the CBOE working with and executing “block” orders for institutional money managers, firm traders and market makers, and more than 30 years working in the family real estate business. Today, BDMC’s reason-for-being is to provide a vehicle to manage the assets of its founder and deploy capital in the markets in a way that maximizes returns while minimizing risk.
