Investment Trust Tips 2011 Aggressive Portfolio

This year’s investment trust tips launched on 1 August 2011. There is something for both cautious or aggressive investors, and across nine different sectors such as UK, emerging markets and private equity.

For more information, see the September 2011 edition of Money Observer magazine. 

Last year’s tips performed brilliantly. The defensive tips produced an average gain of 20.3 per cent in the year to 1 August 2011. The aggressive tips made an average gain of 27.4 per cent. This compares with a 13.7 per cent gain from the All-Share index and a 12.9 per cent gain for the FTSE World ex-UK index.

The 2011 aggressive tips are displayed below. Please note that the profit/loss column does not include any distributed income.

Investment trust portfolio

Rather better than my I.T.portfolio of emerging market I.T.s which declined by 12.05%. But only as good as my general portfolio of mixed equities, down by 9.5%. I am a subscriber to Money Observer, but have no other claim to distinction. I find the magazine interesting, stimulating and useful in planning my strategy and in stock selection. The investment trust sector is my favourite by far, long term
