Putting split-capital trusts to work

Article Abstract:

Split-capital investment trusts can provide good returns over the long run, and they can play a major role in an investment portfolio since they offer a focused performance. There are difference types of stocks, such as zero-dividend preference stocks which offer a set capital sum on maturity, but no income. These stocks are a low-risk investment. Stepped preference shares pay an income that increases annually, and income shares pay a high income with no real capital return. Capital growth can be obtained from income and residual capital stocks. Capital shares do not pay income but can offer capital growth.

Old aims, new style

Article Abstract:

A new investment portfolio has a number of principles in its investment style, and these include making no attempt to forecast the timing of changes in global financial markets. The past is not sure indicator that trends will continue, but it can provide some clues. Companies involved in innovation are often successful, and it is worth trying to identify these successes. Losses should be cut, and investors should hold on to stocks in companies that perform well.
