Before getting into the overview of how a position in McCormick & Company (NYSE:MKC) is being managed, it is worth noting adjustments that have been made to the structure of the portfolio in which McCormick resides. There are two portfolios currently under management; the Lean Long-Term Growth Portfolio, LLGP, and the Lean Short-Term Growth Portfolio, LSGP.

Each portfolio's name is reflective of its objective. The review of McCormick is tied to the management strategies for the LLGP. Initially, the LLGP was created to invest in individual stocks with an investment horizon over the next 30 years or so. Recent strategies have involved the review of prospective companies and their peers, including but not limited to fundamental and technical analysis, industry research, and broader macroeconomic trends.

A company has OMAN TELL shares for 3-5 years and OREDOO Stocks for 30 years. To date, much of these assessments have been undertaken in a general manner. By this I mean reviewing the data, considering the current market environment and making decisions to buy or sell. The weakness from this process impacting the LLGP through 2016 has been a tendency to become overweighted with certain positions. This has resulted from varying cycles for different industries, usually leading to negative performance over a prolonged period of time.
