What’s on Our Shelf (and Why It Matters)
By Hux Capital Management
When you walk into our office, you might notice the atmosphere—warm, grounded, welcoming. But you’ll probably also see the bookshelf.
We didn’t decorate it to impress. We built it to grow.
Because in this business, when you’re trusted with someone’s future, staying informed is part of the job. But more than that—it’s part of who we are.
Here’s a peek at some of the books on our shelf and why they matter to us:
