Probably the best trader uv never heard of??. . . not investment advice, just thinking out loud:)

[Taftrader @taftrader]

Sld #CNE after adding c240p in Jan, exited into the 346p

c+44% on the add b4 divis

Jan inflction was imprving Egypt collections, net cash, prdction momntum and the mrged concession catalyst.

Genel then crystallised the value gap.

Bought the de-risking. Sold the recgnition.

[Taftrader @taftrader]

Changes: swapped #GROW for #IPO then #HTG for #CNE ...sold #CPG #IHG #RM then with cash added #MTRO still have some cash, current holdings as below:

[Taftrader @taftrader]

Cut cash from c5% and put most of it into #SWC

No deep fundmntal thesis here , jst a tctical #Bitcoin view. The #TA looks better than cash for the next leg, and I think the risk/reward is worth taking. Full portfolio below..#BTC #MSTR #Metaplanet #SMLR #FTSE

#IWG bought today with #XPP proceeds. Market still treats it like a levered office landlord. But mix is turning: Q1 system rev +9%, managed/franchise adds centrs without lease capex, owned margins recovering. New CEO is the transformation guy. Next leg = FCF + ND down. #FTSE

[Taftrader @taftrader]

#XPP exited today c1980p vs c947p entry on 30 Sep 25. +109%.

Thesis was the cycle turn: orders +28%, BTB >1x for 1st time since 2022, GM >41%, ND reset + £5.5m savings. Oct TU confirmed the profit inflection. Market has now caught up. Thesis done, capital recycled #FTSE #semi

[Taftrader @taftrader]

#XPP: came in lower than my high base but what mattered for tape was "material step up" in quarterly profitability...up +3.8%...£11.40 still in play!!

[Taftrader @taftrader]

#SBRE case is simple:

UK motor insurance is still ugly, but Sabre is underwriting profitably.

FY25 COR 82.3%, solvency 161.5%, no financial debt, c9x FY26 PE, high yield, byback running.

If GWP kps recovering and COR holds, numbers can move #Insurance #Admiral #Income #FTSE

[Taftrader @taftrader]

Used part of the proceeds to buy #SBRE Sabre Insurance. Rest in cash.

Different stock, sme plybook.
Not buying “cheap” for the sake of cheap. Looking for a bsiness where the old story is still in the price, but the numbers are starting to turn.#FTSE #Insurance #Admiral #Aviva

[Taftrader @taftrader]

Sold #RaspberryPi today.

Entry: 331p on 19 Mar
Exit: 988p today
Return: +198.5%, basically 3x.

This is the whole point of the portfolio: buy inflection before it becomes obvious, then recycle when the market finally catches up.

#UKStocks #AIM #RPI #FTSE

Made more changes took out #DFS #Penon #Speedyhire and replaced with #Centrica #Sage and #RasberryPi ....

[Taftrader @taftrader]

this was Mar 20

Book was leaning into #DXY strength

Today’s jobs print backs it: US labour not cracking, Fed nt cutting soon, dollar bid.

But alpha still comes from bottom-up stock picking , macro is the tailwind, stock selection is where you get paid.

#NFP #USD #Fed #FOMC

Made few more changes taking out #THG #TTG #FORT and brought in #MTLN and #EXPN....portfolio leaning towards #DXY strength winners #AI oversold but actually winners from it and #energy winners ..full portfolio below:

#RPI #RasberryPI .....good week for the portfolio #PSON #Relx #EXPN #SGE #ENT

Current book = 25 names. Not benchmark-shaped.

Top weights = where I see inflection, not where the index says hide:

#RPI, #MTRO, #IPO, #DOCS, #Elementis, #THG, #CPI, #ENT, #FSJ, #XPP

Common thread isn’t sector.

Old story priced in. Next story not in numbers yet. #ukequities

Attribution shows the process.

YTD adds:
#RPI +4.79
#XPP +3.67
#CNE +1.49
#MTRO +1.11
#FSJ +0.86
#XAR +0.81
#BRBY +0.41
RPI, Xaar, Burberry, IP Group & Docs = new buys this yr.
Not legacy winners. Fresh capital into inflection trades working

YTD hs bn a proper test.

End-Mrch bk was -13% behind #ASXX.

By 29 May: bscally flat vs bm.

Port +6.13%
Bm +6.24%
3m snap is the key:

Port +4.88%
Bm -3.48%

c8% rel swing, wth beta 0.72 / corr 0.66.
