    Jarvis Investment Managers continues to perform. Up 151% since the inception of the portfolio and this excludes dividends paid. 

    The last year has been very good for JIM up 130%. Is there any reason for the cracking performance?


    Trading activity both retail and corporate. Resulting in good profitability and cash generation. First bought the stock around 7 years ago. Jumped in last March when the price dropped to £3.85p.  Then there was a 4:1 share split. Subsequently been progressively offloading in the past 5 months as became too large as an individual holding in my overall portfolio!
