Gritstone Asset Management

Founded in April 2018, Gritstone Asset Management is a Maryland-based hedge fund manager that is managed by the principal owners, Justin Cressall, Thomas McHale, and Nicholas Skibo. The firm's methods of analysis include fundamental financial analysis and relative value analysis of each investment opportunity. Its relative value analysis generally seeks to identify investment opportunities that are expected to outperform other investment opportunities within a similar end-market or vertical on a risk-adjusted basis. The firm's investment objective is to provide strong absolute returns with an emphasis on capital preservation. It generally seeks to identify opportunities that provide attractive returns on an unleveraged basis; however, the firm may, from time to time, utilize leverage to enhance returns within select private funds or SMAs.
