Initiation note from QuotedData

Summary by AI BETAClose X

Monks Investment Trust has shown improved performance over the past year, driven by holdings like TSMC, NVIDIA, SpaceX, and Schiehallion, and its managers are adapting the portfolio for a wider range of economic outcomes beyond AI-driven growth. The trust's shares are currently trading at a mid-single-digit discount to net asset value, which has been narrowing and could continue to do so if growth investing remains favoured and performance is sustained.

Monks Investment Trust - Initiation note from QuotedData

16 July 2026

Global growth wider a wider lens

After a tough period for growth investing, Monks Investment Trust (MNKS) has seen its performance improve markedly over the past year, helped by holdings such as TSMC, NVIDIA, SpaceX and Schiehallion. With the economic outlook becoming less certain, the managers have been adjusting the portfolio to allow it to benefit from a wider range of outcomes, not just the small group of AI-driven winners that has recently led markets, while keeping the trust's focus on exceptional growth businesses.

The shares trade on a mid-single-digit discount to net asset value (NAV), which has been narrowing. If investors continue to favour growth and MNKS sustains its stronger performance, we believe the discount could narrow further.
