It was a tale of two halves on the Australian market this month, with the ASX200 performing strongly early to be up over +2% by the middle of the month, however, global jitters had their impact leading the ASX200 to close with a more modest gain of +0.5% for May. Our benchmark, the ASX200 Total Returns (including dividends), returned +1.1% for May, indicating a broader market gain of +8.5% during the period the TAIM Funds have been operating.
The TAIM Funds also gave up some of their strong initial gains late in the month, but still closed out May with solid returns, our Momentum Fund gaining +2.8% and our Leveraged Fund gaining +2.7% for the month. With investor returns of +17.6% and +19.8% respectively in their first 8 months, twice that of the general market, we are well on track to achieve our full year targets.

Both funds have an Australian blue chip focus – portfolio of 20 ASX200 equities, long only, no short-selling or derivatives – and we use an automated quantitative approach to deliver superior performance.

Forget Startups: Why Magnetic Alliance is Betting on “Boring” Mid-Market Turnarounds
While Australia’s venture capital scene spent years chasing unprofitable tech startups and speculative high-growth plays, Mark Lim was quietly taking a radically different path. The Managing Partner of Magnetic Alliance Capital sees the nation’s richest investment opportunities hiding in plain sight: inside thousands of unglamorous, profitable, but operationally sluggish mid-market businesses. Speaking on Wholesale Investor’s […]
