We had been sputtering for a long time due to the "growth needs low interest rate" mantra; then USA went back up thanks to the Trump/Musk effect with SpaceX.
Glad for the reversal of trend lately, still needs to keep to its focus which is to beat the S&P500.

Glad to have avoided the boorish and ungentlemanly Saba proposal; but USA still needs to get back to yesteryears' levels of flirting with 400p.

Date: 24th January 2025
 Time: 1:00 PM
 Format: Online Webinar

Saba Capital, a US hedge fund, has recently called for general meetings at seven investment trusts:
Baillie Gifford US Growth Trust (USA), Edinburgh Worldwide (EWI), Keystone Positive Change (KPC), Henderson Opportunities Trust (HOT), European Smaller Companies Trust (ESCT), CQS Natural Resources Growth & Income (CYN), Herald Investment Trust (HRI).

Unless other shareholders vote at these general meetings, Saba’s resolutions will pass, enabling Saba to take control of these trusts.

In this webinar, an expert panel, including Ros Altmann, James Carthew, and Richard Stone, will explore the implications of these developments, focusing on the broader issues surrounding shareholder democracy. Additionally, there will be a concise presentation on how shareholders, particularly those holding shares via brokers or platforms, can ensure their voting rights are effectively exercised.

Nearing the $billion marker:-



Current Market cap.

£711 million

or US$905 million.



As USA has increased so much in value recently, it will increasingly come back onto the institutional radar.


My guess is that they will be taking some of those near 21 million Treasury shares out of deep-freeze soon and selling them at a premium.

Looking good.

ALL IMO> DYOR.

Read This.

1. Baillie Gifford US Growth has dramatically and rapidly narrowed its formerly wide DISCOUNT-To-NAV to circa 3.5% (ticker: USA)

- Compared to ScoMo's current Discount-to-NAV of around 7.5%


2. If you want the Trump trade, BGUSA is 100% US exposure

- Compared to ScoMo's 55% US exposure.


3. If you want exposure to perhaps the most exciting private equity situation in the world - namely SpaceX-

BGUSA has 7.6% SpaceX portfolio holding

- Compared to ScoMo's 4.8% exposure


4. If you want Musk industry exposure, BGUSA has 10.9% (SpaceX 7.6% plus Tesla 3.3%)

- Compared to ScoMo's 8.9% (SpaceX 4.8% + Tesla 4.1%)

5. Saba Capital Management have now built a massive position of 22% in BGUSA

6. JP Morgan have now increased their holding in BGUSA to c 6.7%

7. BGUSA's 3.8% holding in Shopify increased 25% yesterday and is ripping.


BGUSA is looking very compelling in my view when weighed against the geo-political uncertainties perhaps now contained in some of ScoMo's 45% non-US holdings.


It appears to me that BGUSA may now the be agile frigate which ScoMo once was - as ScoMo has morphed into a super-tanker.


ALL IMO. DYOR.

Basically someone has read the AR and is putting the highlights in this article.

I am torn between topping up on some unloved PE trust or USA... I think I will top-up on NBPE again, at least they give a divi.

Owning a share like this trust with a high PE element has been like watching paint dry for the recent lack of excitement compared to the earlier days pre COVID...but who knows our patience may be rewarded eventually with a chance that the valuations may start to be influenced by firms wanting to go public again and be rewarded with the appropriate valuation...



The IPO schedule has been remarkably quiet over the past 18 months as appetite for new issuances sank with the overall market prices. The few companies that have gone public have mostly been small, interesting micro caps.

Cava is the first high-profile IPO since 2021, when every week seemed to have a SPAC (special purpose acquisition company) merger or IPO lead the headlines. The heavy demand for CAVA shares seen on Thursday means that investment banks will likely get to work in order to bring the next batch of private companies to public markets.

Halfway through 2023, there have only been about 45 IPOs on Wall Street, which have raised a collective $7.6 billion. This is already nearly overtaking the value of IPOs in all of 2022 but is not even close to 2021’s exuberant IPO market. In that year Wall Street pushed out nearly 400 IPOs that raised more than $142 billion in capital.

I guess those "growth only/no dividend" funds are at the mercy of the interest rate saga. When things calm down a bit, maybe after a short recession to dampen inflation, things should go back to normal, this time without the extravagance of yesteryear.

The PE ITs I invest in at the moment NBPE and CTPE pay a dividend, so even with the silly discount, I get something for sitting tight. Still mildly optimistic about USA but not as mad about it as I used to be. :(

Interesting views - what do you make of the pure BG USA VC fund and I won't write down the fullname in case I wrongly type it but starts with an S...it seems to have a larger discount too..
