Been buying last few days, nav rising steadily, NIKKEI going well up 2.67% yesterday.
Now 12.8% disc to nav, 12 month ave is 8.94% disc. S/P hardly moved yet.

great looking chart and NOR situation even though japan indices are not at all time high. No discount to NAV sadly and might be dangerous if Japan market starts to fall

Big demand for BGFD shares lately , they keep issuing more. 55% gain on my holding last year. I am hoping for at least that this year as Japan at last is moving ahead. Fat Prophets reckon Japan is the place to invest in this year and their funds are heavily into Japanese companies. They recommend BGFD which is in their portfolio.

Japanese stocks usually have a year end surge even more so than uk shares

There seems to be a lot of interest in this fund recently.Fat Prophets think that Japan will do and is doing well so I am keeping my holding for at least 40% gain next year and hopefully much more.

A nice rise today on back of RNS saying more shares bought.
p1nkfish, coincidently I bought BGFd back in October , then the in January iShares MSCI Japan Mnthy £ Hdg (IJPH) which is slightly different from yours I think. In my case BGFD has outperformed the ETF. I think the falling Yen contributed a lot to the ETF in 14, hence why I picked a "Hedged" ETF to balance the IT.

Bought BGFD and ISHARES V PLC MSCI JAPAN GBP HEDGED some time back.

The tracker/etf has trounced BGFD and lower cost.

Says it all. Why pay theee peoplecto under perform?

Any reason anyone?

Same as you Altom, long term holder of both. Each trust has outperformed its benchmark and over the last four years returned much more that I was expecting. The discounts are sitting at only 1% just now, so not worth buying in for that, however I think US (and UK) look toppy so am sitting tight in Japan (and Europe where I have TRG, just bought another slab last week).

BGS (as you would expect being smaller companies) is much more volatile and often has a larger spread.

I own this trust & BG Shin Nippon. Both good risers this week. Any comments from someone better informed than I am would be very welcome.
