Timed that well!

I've taken a small holding in this trust and Odyssean Investment Trust PLC today. The last two small company trusts that I didn't have in my portfolio. Interestingly the founders of Odyssean have lodged a general meeting at SEC. Probably quite a bit of logic in the two combining as they have a similar approach. Its a difficult one as Gresham House are good. I am a shareholder in them back from the days when Gresham House was an investment trust. Odyssean is backed by Christopher Mills and Armitage; if Odyssean doesn't deliver then Harwood will step in. Harwood are equally good. It will be interesting to see what happens.

20% discount?

[edwardt] 02/12/2020 18:23

Love Rit sold out just as U.K. value got going! Guess lord R can afford to make mistakes

So who made decisions? Team, House or SEC?

[peter27] 27/3/2020 10:48

Same team - different house.

PHD has been a disaster for these. Will they act to tidy portfolio before end of tax year now there is a new manager?

Time for discount to narrow me thinks

The cat is getting some competition again _ performance picking up

Now lower than three years ago with zero dividend. Another fund where the so called professionals cannot outperform my cat.

[edwardt] 12/1/2018 10:22

sensible reduction in fees, still on expensive side but hey ho, got to have a closed ended vehicle in small caps.

[edwardt] 24/11/2017 15:08

ok maybe 2.67 would be my guess.

[edwardt] 23/11/2017 16:35

269p nav tomorrow...

[edwardt] 23/11/2017 09:14

servelec bid for with binding acceptances - probably for the best, it had become a drag on performance.

[edwardt] 12/10/2017 09:33

guess they were involved at the shake up at Wilmington - looks like it was much needed...

[edwardt] 18/7/2017 15:51

equiniti on the acquisition trail, we will have to stump up cash so cash drag reducing here. also like look of latest purchase too

[spectoacc] 10/7/2017 14:50

Surprised this has gone quiet for so long?

[mad foetus] 16/5/2017 11:44

Good to see the board buying back shares while this discount exists. MGP has done very well and NAV has put on 20p pretty quickly.

[mad foetus] 28/4/2017 10:55

Tribal has also moved up nicely recently. I suspect we will have to live with a 15% discount to NAV until the new manager establishes a track record, but my suspicion is that a lot of the companies in the portfolio have had a flat share price and limited news flow over the last couple of years but that is coming to an end and the NAV may now start moving consistently forward. Hoping, anyway!

[edwardt] 28/4/2017 10:50

medica up 60% in a month since ipo and sec managed to get a good allocation in the bun fight....

[mad foetus] 26/4/2017 17:46

Thanks for clarifying Peter. He did a great job at Rentokil for years but I would have thought with 5m of his own money invested he will not tolerate investment management that isn't top drawer. NAV and share price have been moving north recently, let's hope it continues.

[edwardt] 26/4/2017 17:07

my mistake, peter that is obviously correct.
