The second half of 2019 was a profitable time for investors in Shires Income (SHRS), as the trust extended its outperformance of both the UK market and the average competing fund. Investors also benefitted from the elimination of the discount as the share price rose to match the NAV. The trust continues to issue shares (a process that began in January 2019 after a long pause), and this should both help widen its audience, improve liquidity in the shares, and reduce its average running costs.
