Distribution Funds & Bonds

King_Weasel

Thanks for all your comments.

Of my two Distribution UTs, New Star was consistently the better performer when I first bought them (March 2003) but now Jupiter is doing better. (I see no-one's commented on the Scottish Prov Distn Bond).

I noticed (how could I not?) that Black Rock had launched what was to me a new concept but I instinctively mistrust fashions (that's why I was never stung by zeros a while back). Even so, maybe I should put a toe in.

What about corporate bonds, especially strategic funds? It always seems the wrong time to start, but is it still? Ditto for commercial property?

I know I've too much in equities - I blame this forum for tempting me into the Premier Growth Plan and also recent market lows which lured me into buying a couple more shares. Overall I'm looking for opportunities to contract my equity holdings (including selling individual shares) but I'm holding out for now. I know things can always get worse...

Any further suggestions always welcome.
