Vistafolio is Wealth Morning’s Managed Account solution for Eligible and Wholesale Investors. Once a month, we update account holders on the strategy and performance. Please find our latest update as follows:
Volatility is back! November was set to be a great month, and then the Omicron variant reared its ugly head. The uncertainty was too much for the markets on Friday, and there was a wide sell-off.
Can existing vaccines deal with Omicron? We don’t yet know how well.
Pfizer seemed to think they could modify, and their share price is up over 6%, defying the market fright. But as I write today, Moderna and the WHO see deeper concerns.
It’s a pity that this has smashed the end of November.
If we take returns from November 1-25, we would have been able to show around 3.5%. But Black Omicron Friday, the 26th, must be included.
Still, I’m an optimist, and I see recovery for patient investors who stay the course with good businesses. And that is what we do in the markets — invest in businesses. We ride the highs and lows of their activity and wait for them to flourish again.
Overall, for the month of November, we were up 0.71% across the composite portfolio (total aggregate return across all portfolios following the strategy). And we are up 10.42% since the start of the year.
Please see our performance chart for more details.
As always, the brave may buy fear and make a profit.
In coronavirus times, this does take courage and an eye on the long game.
