Going for gold!

Seneca Global Income & Growth Trust’s (SIGT’s) manager, Seneca Investment Managers (Seneca IM), has continued to reduce SIGT’s equity weighting, in advance of a global recession it now expects in late 2020/ early 2021. Consistent with its view, SIGT has
made its first allocation into gold (through a gold exchange traded fund (ETF) and a fund of gold mining companies).

The durability and resilient cash flows, which are hallmarks of LTL investments, proved popular with investors, with many holdings recording large share price gains in the first few months of the year – counter to the wider market. Others did not do quite a...
