Crisp on the outside, thoughtful on the inside. A keeper.
Summary
Scottish Mortgage Investment Trust has reported strong annual results with NAV total return rising 27.4% and share price up 26.8%, outperforming the FTSE All-World Index. The recovery is driven by renewed enthusiasm for artificial intelligence, private technology assets, and anticipation of a major IPO pipeline led by SpaceX. This marks a sharp turnaround from the growth-stock sell-off of 2022/23 when the trust traded at double-digit discounts to NAV.
