Matthew Griffiths @Henderstron: "End of January 2023 Update..."

United Kingdom

End of January 2023 Update (total holding % shown in brackets) This month I have re-worked the report slightly to change to showing the percentage of total holdings for each position in brackets, as opposed to the total holdings gains/losses. This is more useful for contextualising performance and accounting for copiers who have copied open positions. Technology Services. $GOOG (Alphabet) (3.2%) had a strong start to the journey with gains of over 12.5%, recovering from the December dip. Similarly $NFLX (Netflix, Inc.) (2.5%) also had a very good start to the year, recovering by 20%. Meanwhile $U (Unity Software Inc.) (0.4%) also grew by over 24%. Taking 2nd place in this sector is $NET (Cloudflare) (1.4%) improving its position by 17%. Electronic Technology. $SPCE (Virgin Galactic Holdings Inc) (1.95%) rallied at last by over 58%. $AAPL (Apple) (2.0%) gained 11% and $INTC (Intel) followed with an increase of almost 7%. In defence the positions were all slightly negative, with $NOC (Northrop Grumman Corp) (0.7%) the standout, losing almost 18%. Retail Trade. Our largest position in Retail, $BYND (Beyond Meat Inc.) (3.0%) returned a great 33% gain in January, whilst $OCDO.L (Ocado Group PLC) (1.2%) held steady with just over a 1% gain. Our smallest holding here, $BABA (Alibaba-ADR) (0.3%) grew by 25%. Consumer Services. $ABNB (Airbnb Inc) (0.5%) continued its recovery with a solid almost 30% upward movement, however $JDW.L (J D Wetherspoon PLC) (2.5%) saw only just less than 2% gains. Producer Manufacturing. Pleasingly $SEDG (SolarEdge Technologies) (1.2%) regained the ground it lost in December, showing over 12% improvement. American truck manufacturer $PCAR (Paccar Inc) (1.7%) grew by over 10%. Basic Materials. In advance of its delisting $BHP (BHP Group Ltd ADR) was closed, solidifying a 25% profit. The best performer in this sector for January was $B (Barrick Mining Corp) (0.9%) with an increase of almost 14%. January’s overall gain of just over 12$ has outperformed the S&P 500 by almost 2 times. Top Open Trades $NET +227% $SEDG +213% $CRWD (Crowdstrike Holdings) +122% $AAPL +119% $ACN (Accenture Plc) +66% Worst Open Trades $CINE.L -87% $BYND -80% $U -76%
