Just how much money do the ScoMo team have invested in the Trust?

There is a fascinating article in the same publication headed " Who has real skin in the game?". P.31

The article contains a table titled " The million-plus manager club" in which ScoMo appear in top position with the ScoMo Team having an astonishing £54.1m invested. - That's a really large wedge of money. By random comparison the Scottish Oriental Team are shown as having a collective £2.3m invested.

Always excellent to see the Managers having real skin in the game. Adds a lot of confidence.

ALL IMO> DYOR.

" SMT is head and shoulders above its peers not only in terms of long-term performance but also size with net assets of £4.5bn"

High praise for ScoMo and justly deserved in my opinion in the excellent monthly publication Money Observer. New edition May 2017 .

Article on page 10 of accompanying supplement.

Interesting graph headed " Outstripping its GLobal Peers" gives comps between ScoMo's performance and 1) Foreign Colonial and 2) Global Sector Average.

ALL IMO. DYOR.

I read somewhere that Investment trust sometimes issue shares when price is strong then buy them back when markets fall to try and smooth out performance.

Almost daily issue of new shares at a premium is holding the share price down. Is this a good idea on the part of management?

Amazon now squarely through $900.

My money is on $1,000++ before year end.


Tesla daily surging to new all-time-highs and now at $310, having almost risen an astonishing 45% from $220 in just three short months since beginning of the year.


All very positive indeed for ScoMo's portfolio and valuations.

ALL IMO. DYOR.

This move to borrow 125m in GBP seems sensible to me.

Interest rates are not going any lower, I think. Also, the GBP is likely to depreciate over the next 20 years, making the debt smaller in relation to the assets (which are mainly is USD).

The trust will be pleased to to finally get rid of the debentures (raised in the 1990's). I think they pay an average interest rate of around 14%.

Their biggest holding Amazon up 1.7%, likewise their third largest holding Tesla up 1.7%.

I hold directly.

It fits perfectly into my aggressive GROWTH portfolio.

If you measure this stock on traditional "value investing" criteria and textbook ratios, you'll run a mile - just like you would have on Google, Microsoft, Apple and Amazon in years gone by. The rest on those stocks is history.

That is the real investing genius of Anderson. And I do mean genius. He is a very cerebral, and prescient investor. Personally, I can't think of anyone in the UK professional investing arena who comes close to his talent in spotting true global growth potential.

It's not just a fluke that ScoMo has joined the illustrious ranks of FTSE 100 companies. The growth in the ScoMo portfolio is unprecedented for such a large fund size.

Anderson and team are absolutely spot on about the meteoric prospects for Tesla.


ALL IMO. DYOR.

Tesla mcap now greater than Ford's, I heard on the radio this morning.

All a bit crazy, and I would never have the nerve to hold it directly.

That's why I think the only way for a natural value investor (like myself) to hold growth shares is through a fund like this.

Market cap of Tesla surges to $48billion and is now higher capitalised than Ford at $45billion.

Tesla Share price up 20% so far this year from $250 to $300.

As at end Feb, Tesla was ScoMo's 3rd largest holding at 6.3% of portfolio. - Maybe higher by now/April.

Eton Musk is promising to solve South Australia's energy problems within 100 days or his equipment is free to the buyer. Wallpack 2 has just been launched in Australia so this could be either a very clever or somewhat expensive PR initiative! TESLA a big holding in the SMT portfolio.
