Emerging market investment trusts have been delivering outstanding performance.
@annabelbrodies: "Many emerging markets are either exporters of energy, or home to some of the leaders in the technology revolution and are helping to power the astonishing growth in the AI sector."

Great to read @HelCahill on investment trusts for @TimesBusiness, "Yet in a spot of good news for the London market, the average investment trust discount improved to 9.6 per cent as of May 31, according to data from the Association of Investment Companies (AIC), a trade body." @AICPRESS https://t.co/xKjnOKClkj

Always enjoy @advinvestor's perspective who describes "the classic dilemma facing all active global equity managers in a world fuelled by gigantic liquidity flows built around the passive, long-term savings-fund machine." Lots of global investment trusts mentioned. @AICPRESS https://t.co/YRDzc5ZYi4
Interesting piece from @trustintel's Alan Ray - an analyst friend explaining why renewable energy investment trusts "have evolved to accommodate the new reality of higher rates and a changing shareholder base, and the geopolitical backdrop looks set to drive more demand for green energy." He thinks the current discounts are an opportunity. @AICPRESS
A fair assessment of @FinsburyGT's results by @Benjaminwmartin at @TimesBusiness. A new enhanced dividend and Nick Train will use gearing to take advantage of a “once-in-a-decade” buying opportunity and double-down on his data and software-focused companies. Data provided by @AICPRESS. https://t.co/5xVy7kaaJQ

More investment trusts are trading on a premium - what are the questions to ask & are premiums worth paying? Read my article with comments from @jasonhollands, Dan Boardman-Weston @BRIWealth and Philippa Mafioli. Mentions for @ScotMortgage_UK, Temple Bar, Fidelity Special Values and more. @AICPRESS https://t.co/4vJt0HSTc2
Prior to the @SpaceX IPO, I'm reading a lot about an 180 day or 90 day lock-up for existing investors in the company. It's actually a staggered tiered system which @ScotMortgage_UK have kindly explained here. @AICPRESS https://t.co/8aiyJUK95n
Interesting to read the comments of Tom Slater on their @SpaceX position pre-IPO in this @FETrustnet piece. “It was available to us because of the specific structural advantages of a closed-end investment trust with a long-term mandate, patient shareholders, a board that judges the manager over years rather than quarters and the willingness to look foolish in the interim." @AICPRESS https://t.co/6ziJbXCivU
Are you interested in getting access to #SpaceX pre IPO?
Investment trusts can be a great way to access high growth private companies before they go public.

Good analysis of Utilico Emerging Markets Trust by Bill Kay for @TimesBusiness which is rated a buy. "UEM will not ride many high-tech waves, but the shares’ historic 0.71 beta suggests a long-term ability to minimise volatility and the current 3.25 per cent dividend yield is a strong fallback." @AICPRESS https://t.co/hVaxc92cMJ
