DESCRIPTION:

Date updated:03-27-2007

"No matter what's happening in the markets, Joseph McNay, the overseer of $3.1 billion in assets at Boston-based Essex Investment Management, finds a way to profit from it. That has led to superior performance in the flagship long-short fund that McNay has managed for some 25 years. These days, this godfather of growth-stock investing is going organic -- focusing on industries expected to show strong growth regardless of economic conditions and choosing the highest-quality stocks delivering dynamic growth in their core businesses. And he's convinced that this is the year value yields to growth."
