I like the mix of investments here so have dipped a toe into this one and USA, although they are rather near their highs. Makes a change from my usual high dividend UK financials. Also picked up a small position in JUSC.

I see you are in a few of these too, QuePassa...

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.

Thanks.

See Post 88!

Please check in more frequently as it is a quiet thread and an interesting time when EWI is being attacked by Saba.

I will repeat post 88 again for ease of reference.

Please note that Rigetti went up another 30% yesterday -so percentage rises may now be updating/increasing.

QP an interesting post by you on the SMT thread re PSi Quantum. Worth reposting here. Not a greatly used thread but have a small holding in EWI

With Saba Capital beating the door down, one can but hope that this could be construed as a trigger event where the complete unlisted portfolio is revalued at year end December 2024, rather than waiting for the regular revaluation cycles.

Let's hope EWI revalue the whole unlisted portfolio now.

Either way, the January Monthly Fact Sheet will be eagerly awaited.


ALL IMO. DYOR.

1.
Astonished that person at BG said they could not reveal how many SpaceX shares held by EWI.

That is public knowledge which they already reveal in their full portfolio valuations.

As at 31/10/24, EWI had the following SpaceX positions/number of shares:-

SpaceX Class A 3,190,457
SpaceX Class C 984,441
SpaceX Series J Pref 22,445,089
SpaceX Series K Pref 10,231,841
SpaceX Series N Pref 49,480,061


2. The value of the overall SpaceX holding is easy to calculate

As at 30/11/24, , the overall Fund value of EWI was £788.81 million

Spacex was 8.4% of the fund which means the Spacex holding was valued at £66.26 million at the end of last month - two weeks ago.

3.

My guess is that the SpaceX holding has not yet been revalued to reflect the most recent likeley uplift in the value of Spacex at the new Tender Price - perhaps because it has not yet been formally confirmed that the deal has gone ahead despite highly reliable rumours.

4.

You will need to make assumptions about the different prices of common stock compared to pref shares.

However, if I were a betting man my guess is that EWI's Spacex holding as a whole is still valued at the summer Company valuation of $210 billion derived from actual shares sales at that time but that the latest mooted revaluation to $350 billion is still awaiting confirmation until ink has dried.


ALL IMO. DYOR.

Re impact of SpaceX price rise: I contacted the investor relations team at EWI who were very responsive but not able to help. I was told the number of shares held cannot be disclosed due to the NDA with SpaceX. I then asked what the share prices were for the last valuation which would enable that to be backed out. This was also confidential. Seems odd to me.
If we use the hxxps://notice.co/c/spacex for the space X price it suggests that the NAV per share from the 30 April update (97) rising to the current 188 would have increased from 160.7 to 177.7 on an everything-else-being-equal basis. The current NAV is shown as 192.5. So from this my instinct is that Ballie Gifford have updated the NAV calc to reflect the latest share price. The report suggests that unquoted stocks are revalued on a 3 month cycle unless there is material news. This also supports the idea that SpaceX' s ascent has been reflected in their NAV as the increase has been material.

I was just watching the tumble weed blowing along on this board and I came across this on the ewi website. A long and interesting history, with links to James Bond!
I for one will continue to hold on through this particular storm, "if necessary lashed to the wheel".

Looks like all BG big bets are taking a big hit. I am still sticking with them as I believe when the rotation to value settles EWI and others will return to glory. 10 pc reversal in 2 hours no showing Blue !!!!

“ Rolls-Royce partners with Reaction Engines for supersonic Virgin Galactic jet”
The Times

See that EWI hold Reaction Engines as a Unlisted company holding, around 0.4% of the portfolio.
