Woodford Patient Capital one year on: Trustnet Magazine is out now!

20 April 2016

The April edition reveals why investors shouldn’t read too much into what has been an underwhelming first 12 months for the trust.

While the latest issue of Trustnet Magazine focuses on Woodford Patient Capital Trust’s first year, it takes its inspiration from an advertising campaign for a well-known brand of stout. As the analysts featured in the article are keen to point out, the clue to getting the best out of the trust is in its name – and good things are more likely to come to those who wait.

While Woodford Patient Capital has had an underwhelming first year, technology trusts could be said to be suffering from the opposite problem, with P/E ratios in this area of the market rocketing – Chris Menon looks at which managers in the sector are capable of steering clear of the value traps.

Meanwhile, Cherry Reynard takes a step back and investigates how the investment trust universe has brought itself up to date, while Anthony Luzio finds out why the AIC Global sector requires more research than its open-ended equivalent.

In the regular columns, Trustnet Direct’s John Blowers asks whether you would be better off putting your money in a Lifetime ISA or a pension, Amandine Thierree explains why FE Research is using HSBC Open Global Property in 12 of its 15 portfolios and Rathbones' David Coombs reveals which three quality US stocks he is backing.

As always, Trustnet Magazine is free. You do not even have to enter any of your details – simply click to begin reading.
