I think it could be interesting to speak about Investment Trusts (ITs), an UK closed-end fund type (closed-ended investment company) to have more dynamism about the ITs in this community. For example, talking about the good ITs, the bargains (ITs trading a discount for short-term investing), specia…

It’s great that you brought up this topic. I’m interested in studying the topic of profitable investment strategies.

Since I’m a novice, I should study this topic thoroughly before making my first investment in cryptocurrency or something else. I have real estate trading experience. But it didn’t last long. I bought three rooms in an office building. Now I have a stable income because three companies rent these ro…

Random question, is SMT under the Ballie Gilford Banner of being one of their many funds or is it some kind of special outliner but is still associated with Ballie Gilford? The only one I have (and I guess it is classed as a Wealth Management Fund) is AllienceBernstein…

It’s one of many trusts managed by BG. Most of the group’s trusts have a similar growth strategy with a relatively high proportion in private equity. There are differences: some are limited by geography, eg BGS, and others take a slightly different tact like MNKS, a toned-down version of SMT. SAIN’…

I like an active approach for emerging markets due to greater market inefficiencies which should, in theory at least, help managers beat the index. I hold VFEM and JP Morgan Emerging Markets (JMG) at a 50:50 ratio for my emerging markets exposure although I’m increasingly tempted to sell the former…

Two websites about ITs: https://www.theaic.co.uk/aic/find-compare-investment-companies?sec=&sortid=SPTR1Y&desc=true Investment Trusts - Prices, Performance, Education, Research Investment Trust prices, charts and Morningstar research. All of the information you need to help you under…

This was an interesting read, particularly this graph: [17d804fd7c1d9c71fd7cc7f9e07571e4] [image] Investment trusts face a test of value, and too many are failing These are, for some, wobbly times in the stock market. The Rothschild family lost £70 million on paper in the space of onl…

Shame about the paywall, but could you take from the graph that ITs are potentially at another low where their value could bounce back closer to NAV? The average discount let’s say seems to be -8% and it’s currently double that give or take? Down well known trusts are near a 30-50% discounted and …
