    Good to see you cheering on stocks with outrageously high multiples
    You've got to get with the program mate and try and get somewhere near the efficient frontier
    Yes I'm a value guy as you know but it doesn't hurt to have some stake in the high growth "darling" stocks.

    Which index fund would you prefer?

    Anyone who can think for themselves can see the Kingfish fund under the current management has been outperforming in recent years http://nzx-prod-s7fsd7f98s.s3-websit...516/299801.pdf

    Well worth noting are all the benefits
    1. PIE distributions of 8% per annum based on average NTA
    2. Ability to buy shares at times at a significant discount to NTA, currently about 10%
    3. DRIP whereby people can get shares in lieu of divvy at a 3% discount
    4. Regular Warrant programs enabling shareholders to acquire more shares on attractive terms.

    I agree. Many years ago I gave Fisher money to invest and kept the same amount to invest myself in the same universe of stocks. After doing much much better than the fund manager two years running I pulled the money out and backed myself to beat their performance in to the future. I've had no regrets of self managing my own and a family members NZ and Australian share portfolios and comparisons with managed fund performances have been extremely favourable. The fees taken by the managers make a huge difference and they are not as "nimble" getting in to and out of small cap companies.

    Exactly. For people like me who are beginners with small amounts to invest, who don’t have the skills or knowledge to do it myself, KFL have been a good option for me. I have bugger all shares but the DRIP has enabled me to gain extra shares along the way. While I do feel the performance fees are pretty exorbitant, I am more than happy with how my shares have done over the past few years. They are a “ small set and forget” investment for me which I am happy to sit back and watch grow. If I lose my investment so be it, but if they continue to perform as they have since I bought them, I am happy to sit on them for the foreseeable future and see what happens. Not everyone is a trading geek who has the ability, money or skills to do this for themselves. Some of us are just tadpoles trying to learn a little and hopefully manage to come out with a positive result somewhere down the track.

    Ownership of the company has changed as have the managers who have been outperforming the index for the last 3 years.
    I manage most of my own funds myself but for some "strange reason" am unable to buy shares for 90% of their current traded price.
    People who almost always point to some index or ETF fund almost always ignore the benefits I've listed in my previous post, reproduced by justakiwi directly above.
    Its also well worth noting that the managers fees and their performance fee have been reduced materially since years ago when you were involved.
    These guys can be more patient than an impatient Beagle so there are other intrinsic benefits as well or top of the wider diversification their portfolio brings to mine.
    I no longer try and pretend I have a mortgage on all the best investment idea's on the NZX.

    I suggest the discount is there for a reason. It is largely an offset against the level of fees encountered and expected performance if using the managed fund! I love bargains but don't or haven't in the past considered KFL to be a bargain.

    Each to their own but for mine seeing as the current management team are beating the relevant index after fees and one can buy shares at a 10% discount to NTA then it make sense to me to have some in my portfolio in there to increase my overall portfolio diversification.
    Same applies to Barramundi and Marlin whereby I can dramatically expand the diversification of my portfolio by owning overseas shares in a simple structure that pays incredible fully tax paid PIE distributions and no FIF paperwork for me to do !
    Aside from that their professional fund managers are FAR more patient as investors than I am so that's a good natural balancing thing right there too.
