Augusta Investments

Augusta Capital is a Registered Investment Advisor run by Watt Dixon, who has been in the investment management industry for over three decades. Dixon attended North Cross School and Emory & Henry College, earning his Chartered Market Technician credential in 2005. He works primarily with individuals and families in the Mountain View area. Dixon's investment approach focuses on protecting capital through bear markets, drawing lessons from the Dot-Com Bubble and the 2008 Financial Crisis. The firm manages portfolios across retirement plans, trusts, and estates, with assets custodied at Charles Schwab. Dixon cites Warren Buffett's value philosophy as a guiding principle: "It's far better to buy a wonderful company at a fair price than a fair company at a wonderful price." The firm operates as a solo practitioner, with Dixon as the sole named principal. No team size, additional offices, or affiliate vehicles are publicly identified. The most recent operational event is Dixon's ongoing management of client portfolios under the RIA structure. A structural differentiator is Dixon's registration as a Chartered Market Technician, a credential requiring a three-year program focused on technical analysis. This technical orientation sets the firm apart from typical RIAs that lean solely on fundamental analysis, though its application within the broader value framework is not fully detailed.
