Enoch Capital
Management

The first multi-asset quantitative system built on Catholic Social Teaching.

Concentrated stock leadership, paired with a trend-following sleeve in gold, long-term bonds, and broad commodities so capital works across market regimes. Developed with AI-assisted research — AI informs the work; the rules, and the human, make the decisions.

What We Do Differently

Most funds rely on opinions.
We rely on rules.

Traditional Fund — Qualitative

  • ×A manager reads the news, studies financials, forms an opinion
  • ×Decides to hold a losing position because they "believe in the story"
  • ×Sells a winner too early because it feels extended
  • ×Emotions drive the portfolio — fear, greed, conviction bias
  • ×Catholic screen is a checklist, not a hard gate

Enoch Capital — Quantitative

  • Every stock scored identically by algorithm, every day
  • Stop-loss executes at -6%. Always. No debate.
  • Winners held and pyramided into — the math decides, not emotion
  • Bear market detected → 100% cash. Automatic.
  • CST screen is Gate 0 — no Catholic-failing stock is ever scored

The Discipline is Built In

Most investors fail not because they don't know what to do — they fail because they can't make themselves do it when it hurts.
Our system has no memory, no hope, no ego. It follows the rules every single time.
The -6% stop doesn't ask if you think it will bounce back. It exits.
The regime gate doesn't care about your macro view. SPY below the 200-day = cash.
This is what quantitative means. Rules enforced by code, not willpower.
Competitive Landscape

The quant funds ignore your values.
The values funds ignore the math. We built the intersection.

Catholic funds — natural partners, not competitors

CBIS ($12.8B), Ave Maria ($3.6B), and Inspire ($4.3B) are passive or fundamental — none uses systematic momentum. They have the distribution, the trust, and the investor base. We have the quantitative engine they don't. That makes them ideal channel partners and referral networks as we scale.

The quant fund market

Renaissance, AQR, and Two Sigma have built rigorous systematic rules. None applies a Catholic moral screen. Institutional minimums make them inaccessible to most Catholic investors.

How It Works

Seven rules. Grounded in Livermore.
Built to survive every market.

GATE 0 Catholic CST Screen USCCB hard exclusions applied before any analysis. PASS or permanently removed. No override, ever.
RULE 1 The Tape Market regime detected via SPY 200-day moving average. Bear market = 100% cash, no exceptions. Only trade with the tape, never against it.
RULE 2 Stock Tape The stock's own trend must already be in place — a sequence of higher pivot lows (longs) or lower pivot highs (shorts). The stock leads, not the market.
RULE 3 Secondary Reaction Wait for a 3–5 day reaction against the trend before entering. Don't chase breakouts. The reaction is the invitation.
RULE 4 Pivotal Point Entry Enter when the stock resumes its trend from the reaction low. The pivot is the line. Cross it with volume and the setup is live.
RULE 5 Probe First Start with a partial position. If the trade works, add at +10% and +20%. Size is earned by the trade proving itself, not assumed upfront.
RULES 6–7 Structural Stop · Sit Stop placed below the pivot that generated the signal — not arbitrary. Once the trade is right, sit. Exit only when the tape changes.

Execution Rules — No Discretion

Hard stop: -6%. Position exits automatically. The manager does not decide.
Pyramid into winners: Probe first, add at +10% and +20% as the trade proves itself.
Trail the stop as the stock rises. Never give back more than 2.5× ATR from the high.
15-year backtest: 2010–2024 · long-only · point-in-time validated (survivorship & look-ahead corrected, costs included). Full results in the confidential diligence package.
Idle capital: a trend-following sleeve in gold, long-term bonds, and broad commodities — each held only while in its own uptrend, otherwise Treasury bills. Capital works across regimes instead of sitting in cash.

"The money is in the sitting — not the trading."

— Jesse Livermore
Methodology

We test to disprove,
not to impress.

How every result is produced

  • Point-in-time universe — S&P 500 membership as it actually was on each date. Companies that were removed stay removed. No survivorship bias.
  • Walk-forward validated — rules set on early data, then applied blind to later periods the system has never seen.
  • Costs and slippage modeled on every fill. Entries fill at the next day's open, never the signal-day close.
  • Every signal beaten against a random baseline on the full universe. What didn't beat random was discarded.
  • Bootstrap confidence intervals — we report a range of outcomes, never a single flattering point estimate.

Backtested results are hypothetical, have inherent limitations, and do not represent actual trading. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

What we will and won't show you

  • We don't publish a number we wouldn't stake our own capital on. The headline figure lives in the diligence package, not on a slide.
  • The regime gate moves to cash in bear markets. Protecting capital is the first job; return is the second.
  • This system wins on the size of its winners, not their frequency. Most trades are small losses cut quickly; a few are large gains let run.
  • The corrected, cost- and bias-adjusted track record — with its confidence interval — is shared under NDA in the diligence package.
Our Numbers, Honestly
Independent audit — May 2026

Before showing this deck to any investor, we commissioned an independent audit of our own backtest. It found four contamination sources common to quantitative backtests. We fixed all four in code — and we underwrite only to the corrected, cost- and bias-adjusted result, never the raw figure.

We would rather show you a number we can defend in a 90-minute due diligence call than one we cannot. The corrected track record, with its confidence interval and full methodology, is shared under NDA in the diligence package.

What the audit fixed

  • Survivorship addressed by design — the model trades only top-decile leaders, never the weak names that account for nearly all delistings (a naive "correction" would mislead)
  • CST exclusions carry effective dates — a name tradable before its exclusion is not retroactively removed
  • Realistic slippage and commission modeled on every fill
  • Entries fill at next-day open, not signal-day close
  • Bootstrap analysis produces a confidence interval on returns

We publish ranges, not hero numbers. The figure we underwrite to is the corrected one — available, with full methodology and confidence interval, in the due diligence package.

Catholic Social Teaching

Faith is not a checkbox.
It is Gate Zero.

Hard Exclusions — USCCB

Abortion · contraception · pornography · gambling · tobacco · labor exploitation · human trafficking · gender transition procedures. Any material involvement = permanent removal.

Positive Screens — Preferred

Worker dignity · just wages · environmental stewardship (Laudato Si) · community investment · family and human dignity.

Governance

Ethical board structure · executive pay fairness relative to workers · transparency and accountability.

Data Sources

Inspire Insight (USCCB-aligned, current) → MSCI ESG Catholic Values (institutional upgrade). Screen refreshes monthly.

"Profit serves people, not the reverse."

— Caritas in Veritate, Pope Benedict XVI

"The economy exists for the person, not the person for the economy."

— Centesimus Annus, Pope John Paul II

"Care for our common home is not optional for a Christian."

— Laudato Si, Pope Francis

We did not add Catholic values to an existing system. We built the system around them. Gate Zero means no Catholic-failing company is ever scored, held, or considered — regardless of its momentum or profitability.

Quantitative Catholic Funds
Confirmed across all major managers
  • CBIS ($12.8B) serves only large institutions. Individual Catholic investors have no equivalent.
  • Ave Maria ($3.6B) uses traditional stock picking — underperforming growth benchmarks in recent years.
  • The Vatican IOR launched its own indexes in February 2026 — no fund product yet. The institutional market is waking up to this need.
  • Notre Dame endowment alone: $15B. Most Catholic university endowments have no USCCB-compliant quantitative option.

Why This Moment

Catholic institutional investors are under increasing pressure from leadership to align portfolios with CST — demand is growing.
The Vatican's own bank (IOR) launching indexes signals institutional legitimacy for Catholic-screened investing.
Ave Maria's underperformance creates an opening for a performance-first alternative.
Algorithmic trading technology is now accessible to a small team in a way it was not 10 years ago.
The combination of faith, discipline, and performance has never been packaged together. Until now.

30 years of building at the frontier

Founded one of the first web companies (1995) — Interactive Planet, which merged to become NAVIDEC Inc. Executed multiple private placements, took the company public on NASDAQ (ticker: NVDC) in February 1997, and achieved a successful exit via reverse merger. He has been on the issuer side of a public offering.
Vice President, Oracle (1998–2003) — Created Oracle's WWW go-to-market strategy. Built Oracle's Life Sciences vertical from scratch. Founded Oracle's Cloud sales group with a $100M quota, achieving 150%.
Head of Sales, DXC Technology (2009–2017) — Managed a $1.3B P/L across the Americas. Averaged 30% over quota. Sold $200M+ in net new business. Presidents Club every year. Led M&A integration across major enterprise acquisitions.
Founder, Simmons Capital (2003–2006) — Created an online equity trading company. Traded personal capital using Elliott Wave, IBD/CAN SLIM, Fibonacci, and Livermore's rules on the eSignal platform. Wrote custom Java code to automate moving average signals and identify earlier entries.
Global Head of Sales, Check Point Software (2022–2025) — Launched IoT, DDoS, and SD-WAN products globally. Generated consecutive years of hyper-growth — what Check Point internally calls a "Rocket."

The arc that leads here

1995
Built & Took a Company Public
Founded Interactive Planet — one of the first web companies. Private placements → IPO on NASDAQ (NVDC) → successful reverse merger exit. Understands capital markets from the issuer side.
1998
Created New Markets at Oracle
Built Oracle's cloud sales motion before "cloud" was a category. Created the Life Sciences vertical. Wrote the WWW strategy. Pattern: sees what is coming before others do and builds the infrastructure for it.
2003
Traded His Own Capital
Elliott Wave · IBD · Fibonacci · Livermore. Wrote Java to automate MA crossover signals and get earlier entries. Learned the discipline — and the limits of discretion — firsthand with real money on the line.
2026
Systematic Catholic Fund
The Java moving average code became a 7-rule Livermore engine. The IBD discipline became the scanner. Tape reading, secondary reactions, pivotal points — Livermore's actual method, encoded in Julia, validated over 15 years. The faith became the values screen. Everything earned, nothing theoretical.

The rare combination: He has raised capital, managed $1.3B in revenue, traded his own money with real technical methods, built and sold companies, and holds patents in identity technology. Most fund managers have done one of these things. Jon has done all of them.

The Ask

Management Company Seed

This round funds the operating company — Enoch Capital LLC — which builds, runs, and earns from the fund. You are investing in the company that operates the fund, not the fund itself. The fund raise follows once the live track record is established.

Round TypeManagement Company Seed
EntityEnoch Capital LLC
Eligible InvestorsAccredited investors only
What You ReceiveProportional LLC membership interest
Target Raise$10,000,000
OversubscriptionAt the manager's discretion
Minimum Investment$100,000
Close StructureRolling closes · operations begin at first close
StructureColorado LLC operating agreement
Return SourcePro-rata share of performance fee distributions

How You Get Paid

The fund charges a 20% performance fee above an 8% hurdle. That fee flows to the management company. Membership interest holders receive pro-rata distributions from those earnings annually. No management fee — the company only earns when the fund performs.

Example: At $10M AUM, 20% fee above 8% hurdle → $520K/year to the management company. A 10% membership stake = $52K/year distribution. At $50M AUM, same 10% stake = $260K/year.

Use of Proceeds — 2-Year Plan · $10M Raise

A ~24-month runway: the team, the build, compliance, and a proprietary trading account that establishes a live, audited track record. Outside trading capital is raised separately in the fund raise.

Phase 2

"The system is built. This round launches the business around it."

— Jonathan Simmons, Founder
Revenue · 2-Year Projection

The raise buys distribution.
Distribution builds the annuity.

How the AUM compounds

  • The same 5 reps, both years. Each closes ~$1M in Year 1 and ~$3M in Year 2 — the ramp of a rep who has learned the book. Deliberately lean: if it works, we add reps — and no investor complains about that.
  • AUM: ~$5M by end of Year 1 → ~$20M by end of Year 2. Closed capital compounds; it does not reset.
  • 20% performance fee above an 8% hurdle flows to the management company. No management fee. 10% of every fee is tithed.
Net returnPerf fee · 2-yrYr-3 run-rate on $20M
15%~$210K~$280K/yr
25%~$510K~$680K/yr
40%~$960K~$1.28M/yr

Illustrative only. Returns shown are hypothetical, not guaranteed; the performance fee applies solely to gains above the 8% hurdle. The underwritten track record and its confidence interval are in the confidential diligence package.

A seed that buys the jump to a Series A

The 2-year plan does not aim at profit. It aims at the inflection.
~$20M AUM already closed and compounding.
A live, audited track record — proof, not backtest.
A distribution engine proven to close — the hardest thing to buy.
Those three are what price a Series A.
