Henderson High Income

Henderson High Income (HHI) has recently announced that Henderson Diversified Income will be merged into it, subject to shareholder approval, which would add advantages of scale to HHI in the coming months. HHI’s manager David Smith believes that for the new HHI shareholders the timing of this merger may be fortuitous, as he feels that a number of key risks facing the UK equity market are reducing: it is likely to avoid a material recession, inflationary pressures have diminished, and political risk should fall away as the next government seems likely to be more centrist.

David’s bullishness has led him to rotate HHI into UK mid cap companies, while also increasing HHI’s bond exposure to take advantage of higher yields on offer. David suggests that the combination of the discount on UK stocks with HHI’s current share price discount of 8.4% (which is below its three-year average) offers an attractive entry point.
