Aquila Euro. Share Price (AERS)

Totally agree. Major Wind Up, It’s an issue trying to find a stable IT when you are seeking a stable/rising income. I’ve got so many trusts in wind down mode it’s annoying and a ridiculous precedent set in the current age. In all the years I’ve been involved in the stock market this is the most I’ve ever seen to go down this path.

Have interest rates been higher in the past….oh yes, about 15% in the 90s. Slightly different circumstances, but this is affecting even the likes of BCPT, the old FCPT. Selling off cheap.

I doubt the credibility of managers in this age and I wonder who is next to exit.

One day all this will end …..hopefully. Lost a flaming fortune already!

Hi. I'm another investor who's unimpressed by all the trusts winding down (or is it winding up?). To be honest, I didn't vote on the AERS wind down, as I was ambivalent. IF it manages to sell its assets near NAV and IF by that time other green funds are still selling at a discount, I could end up effectively swapping an investment near NAV for an investment at a discount, which would be a gain. However, by the time you take into account the risks and the extra costs of winding down, I'm not sure it's worth it.

Yesterday one of my larger positions, RESI, a REIT not a green fund, announced out of the blue that they were going to hold a vote on winding down. Judging by the jump in share price, I think there are a lot of people hoping to make a quick buck. But that was one of my favourite investments for long term income, and I'll probably vote against. At least with AERS there are plenty of other green funds to switch to. There isn't a good alternative to RESI, as far as I'm concerned. Sorry for going off topic; I just had to get that off my chest!

Legs.

I have only recently been buying this year into a range of similar trusts, recently a lot into dore and lesser amounts into gseo, bluefield, gore, seqi, and roof - as usual with my luck a lesser amount into roof.

Covered quarterly dividends, lower interest rates forecast - main issue now is they are all being taken out.

UK Govmnt announces 21.7 Billion towards clean energy.

So major investors still want to sell off and shut down green trusts! Couldn’t make this stuff up.

When all these Green Trusts plummeted I went on a rampage to average down.

Probably far too overweight in this secto, but the ones that aren’t in a wind down are paying a good dividend. My next overweight is Dore. Large discount and NAV seems to be increasing. Had it a long time so well under water, like the rest!

Bit miffed with Tent also in wind down, paying out a big special dividend soon, but that means losing out as more tax is to be paid.

Just allocate some B shares and thus a capital repayment. Will be interesting how they approach the return of capital here. I wait in suspense.
