Update No. 206 – 13/03/15

Our invitation to invest email goes out this weekend, if you would like to receive it, drop me an e-mail at Tony@eternalgrowthpartners.com and I will include you in the offer. There is, of course, no obligation – but despite trailing the market so far in FY2015, we still have an annualised 6.5% outperformance of the ASX200 including dividends and with 18 days remaining in our fourth year of operation, have delivered 80.58% after all fees/costs to our foundation investors.

It was a good week for EGP this week and marked our 13th consecutive positive week (lucky 13 I hope…) and our 6th consecutive all-time high. So although we trail the market, our results remain fairly satisfactory. In the event of a substantial reversal in the market, I expect our holdings would hold up well, and capturing as much of the gain as possible in a rising market and then avoiding as much of the fall as possible in a falling market has traditionally worked well for us.

I will post the weighted valuation metrics of our portfolio and to the extent possible; compare them to the broader market next week. This will give those of you who like to make an assessment of the value of what you’re holding a hand to make a this assessment based on some figures you will be familiar with – Tony Hansen 13/03/2015
