On #USA @QuotedData analyst Matthew Read said: “This is a victory for common sense and shareholder democracy. For the third time, Baillie Gifford US Growth’s independent shareholders have delivered an overwhelming rejection of Saba’s attempts to wrest control of the trust".
Baillie Gifford US Growth #USA has won. Shareholders have voted 52.8% to 47.2% against Saba Capital’s resolutions to appoint three of its nominees to the board with a similar majority backing the existing board. 👋👋quoteddata.com/2026/10/saba-…

The Renewables Infrastructure Group #TRIG has completed the £150m share buyback programme it launched in August last year but with the shares still on a 22% discount, more repurchases will follow.
FTSE Russell is considering an overhaul of its US growth and value indices as the increasing dominance of a handful of technology giants threatens to undermine the distinction between the two investment styles. quoteddata.com/2026/10/tech-…
Golden Prospect Precious Metals #GPM, the £83.5m mining fund that completed its switch from CQS Manulife to Baker Steel this month, expects to move from Guernsey to the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange on 30 October. tinyurl.com/zh7dz7jc
Tufton Assets #SHIP, the 6.9%-yielding shipping fund, says quarterly dividends, which it lifted 10% to 2.75 US cents, will be 2.2x covered by earnings, up from 1.9x cover it first predicted. Rising charter rates helped it return 5% in the third quarter. tinyurl.com/zh7dz7jc
@RichWilliamsQD @QuotedData said: “Another strong quarter for #SHIP, reflecting favourable shipping markets and the benefits of its active fleet management strategy.”

Aberdeen UK Smaller Companies Growth's last annual results underline why #AUSC is merging with JPMorgan rival #JUGI. Underlying total returns fell 4.1% compared to a 6.1% rise in its Deutsche Numis benchmark, extending its underperformance to 3 & 5yrs tinyurl.com/zh7dz7jc
@RichWilliamsQD @QuotedData said: “Perhaps more telling is the scale of share buybacks required to contain the discount, with AUSC repurchasing 26.5% of its issued share capital during the year alone, which have substantially reduced the trust’s size.”
Aberdeen Asia Focus #AAS, the top-performing Asia smaller companies trust, delivered a 22.3% investment return in the year to 31 July with shareholders receiving 23.9%. Both beat the 9.5% rise in the MSCI AC Asia ex Japan Small Cap index. tinyurl.com/zh7dz7jc
@QuotedData analyst @RichWilliamsQD said: “Successful stock selection among Taiwanese technology companies was a major contributor, with the managers identifying beneficiaries of AI infrastructure investment beyond the more obvious large-cap semiconductor names.”
HarbourVest Global Private Equity #HVPE launches the $400m (£298m) tender offer that helped it pass its first continuation vote in July. The “unprecedented” return of capital is priced at a 10% discount to net asset value and came with half-yr results. quoteddata.com/2026/10/harbo…
@RichWilliamsQD, senior analyst @QuotedData, said: “With exit activity showing signs of recovery, #HVPE appears increasingly well positioned to balance capital returns with long-term portfolio growth.”

Duke Capital #DUKE, the high-yielding AIM-listed business lender, issued a trading update after its share price fell 18% yesterday in response to a bulletin board post highlighting the latest loss-making 2025 accounts of borrower Intec Business Holdings. tinyurl.com/44w2z8da
SEGRO #SGRO, the logistics fund being taken over for £14bn by US rival Prologis, provided further evidence of what UK investors will miss. A third quarter update showed new contracted rent rose 32% to £70m in the three months to 30 September. tinyurl.com/etre958e
Matthew Read @QuotedData said: “SEGRO’s continued operational strength reinforces the strategic logic of the combination and underlines the quality of the business that Prologis is acquiring.”
