That's pretty concentrated for my taste - but also much easier to manage! (And significantly de-risked by the high cash %age).

You're spot on there - it's kind of the approach I'm trying take. 100% agree that the smallest are also typically easy pickings for selling and consolidating into my larger positions πŸ‘Œ

A reasonable concern - on a capital basis, including dividends, I'm on about a 1% annualised return which is pretty underwhelming!

A very sound point James! I have really struggled with #WISE and it's on my watchlist. As an investment it hasn't performed at all but as a BUSINESS it's been phenomenal!

I have a different take on #WISE.L:

It IPO'd in 2021 when many overvalued companies came to the market. However the performance of the business since IPO has been phenomenal πŸ‘‡ and surely it's this that matters more? This was not a junk over-priced IPO, it was a good business but highly-priced imo.

Okay this is getting ridiculous.

In addition to the ongoing problems with the UK’s Labour Force Survey, the Wealth and Assets Survey (key source for measuring wealth inequality) has now also had its accreditation revoked due to falling response rates.

Another day, ANOTHER takeover - this time, my largest holding - WaΒΉrehouse REIT (#WHR) at 109p - which I've held since IPO. Feels a little opportunistic but a good deal for Blackstone.

I held this for years - sold eventually and wondered what I'd ever been thinking. SMS's sheen has definitely tarnished over the years.
