You definitely have to like doing the extra research and be prepared for the additional ups and downs the approach involves, and that certainly doesn’t suit everyone. Trusts like CGT and RCP will tend to lag in strong bull markets of course.

Respect for keeping at it with your IT portfolio.

I’m close to throwing the tower after being mostly invested in CGT/RCP (and a few other ITs I sold last few years- BSRC, SSON, HICL, HFEL) . Sold all my CGT a month ago, and since 2 years buying only cheap ETFs a la VWRL/VWCE.

The moment RCP closes the discount I will dump it as well, as psychologically I can’t sell it at such a discount, seems unwise.

It was an interesting experiment but I don’t know if it’s worth all the effort in analyzing all these ITs when a dumb ETF ends up beating basically all of them.

Let’s see how 2025 goes…
