Edison issues review on Jupiter UK Growth Investment Trust (JUKG)

Jupiter UK Growth Investment Trust (JUKG) aims to deliver long-term capital appreciation, primarily through investing in UK equities. The fund has few constraints against the benchmark, and the manager, Steve Davies, is highly selective in his bottom-up approach, investing in 30-35 companies with recovery or growth potential. The portfolio and its performance can therefore diverge significantly from the FTSE All-Share index. Davies believes UK equities are currently unloved, and investors are excessively pessimistic and focused on the short-term outlook. While he expects the UK market to remain out of favour over the near term, as a natural contrarian investor with a long-term horizon, he says he is finding exciting investment opportunities.

JUKG currently trades at a 0.5% premium to its cum-income NAV, which is modestly below the three-year average discount of 2.0%. The board has a nil-discount policy and JUKG is the only trust in the AIC UK All Companies sector to follow such a policy.
