Very odd! I'm not seeing any tables on the AEI website, but they are present on ADVFN; |
Anybody else finding just commentary text and no tables of numbers in the interim results? |
Sizeable discount opening up again |
Large holding in DSSmith given this a boost Still well below NAV |
I wonder might they merge Shires with AEI..?. |
Not much liquidity as a very small trust I've been nibbling a few but not quite sure how he gets the yield ( plus costs) from the portfolio Some must be coming from capital |
I managed to get some at 260p last week and just tried to double up, but nothing available. |
Bought on a 11% discount and 8.5% yield |
Sizeable discount opening up now |
278.00 - 281.00 (GBX) at 12:48:25 on Market (LSE) |
Plenty of Aberdeen trusts in wind down or mergers. Not long before this one gets shuffled into another UK equity income trust. |
When are they going to announce the first quarter dividend? Last year they announced the first quarter dividend at the beginning of February |

Discount almost disappeared |
This has had an excellent run ever since I put it on my watch list !! |
Excellent dividend .. |
I actually quite like the portfolio here. Oil, mining and financials (though I haven't seen the most up to date top ten). But it's performance has been terrible over the last 1, 3, 5 years. 7 years +0.4 % . What is the story here? Has anyone been invested that long? I fully understand the high dividend is attractive and something we are all probably looking for with this being a dividend hero. But that's some poor performance. |
good yield , big discount, good portfolio , bought in today |
TT.. Yes disappointing, but AEI is stuffed full of oilers and miners,some of which have dropped 15+ percent in the past month.Adding to the underperformance, the discount to NAV has widened from about 3 percent to about 9.5 percent over the past month. Good divi though. |
I own this and several similar trusts, but this one is seriously under-performing the others all of a sudden. |
