.@jeffprestridge analyses Fidelity Special Values #investmenttrust. Manager, Alex Wright said: 'There is good earnings growth across our portfolio – 10 per cent for both 2026 and 2027. If we see their profits advance by 10 per cent a year and dividends on top of 3 per cent, that implies an annual total return of 13 per cent for the next two years. That is an appealing return.' @AICPRESS @ClaireDwyer_ https://t.co/pI7ERpJPCg
