To demonstrate the benefits of the Sharewatch newsletter "Something New" strategy, we have created our very own Growth Portfolio, a virtual portfolio which we update in the newsletter each month and which is run in order to illustrate the dynamics of managing an active small company portfolio.When running our portfolio, no share is added unless it is profiled in the newsletter and like all investors the portfolio operates with a finite amount of cash and so sometimes a sale must be made to free up cash for a new investment. The portfolio performance ignores income from dividends but takes account of prevailing stamp duty and dealing commissions on sales and purchases to show a realistic picture.
Our first Growth Portfolio, Growth Portfolio 1, was launched in November 1994 with a starting capital of just £25,000. It had delivered stunning growth of 1089% by the time it was terminated in July 2001.
