Because they have done exceptionally well over recent years. A lot of profit taking has occurred and people are starting to become jittery about the markets, hence the rotation into large caps.

Could be the point at which to buy.

Markets don't go in a straight line so something that becomes better value may be a good option.

Nothing wrong with the underlying investments as NAV is increasing. The Trust is lacking buyers so the discount is widening. Perhaps should be viewed as a buying opportunity.
