RE: Nick Train FGT Share Purchases6 Jun 2023 10:03
Just bought into this fund. Highly concentrated group of top class companies which should do well, especially when bought at a discount. As Train himself says on Citywire , he is also disappointed in the performance. This is because even the big British companies are not well thought of at the mo and are not purchased by overseas buyers, because of our weakening economy. Neither are they purchased by pension companies who prefer the safety of gilts and bonds to shares. But I believe that this will change given the low SP of most of these UK companies viz a viz their US and continental equivalents.
