October 5, 2025 By hedgehunter 1 Comment

It has been 3 months since I last reported on the performance of the Hawking Portfolio – basically because it is essentially a “Buy-And-Hold” portfolio of Closed-End-Funds (CEFs) that pay out high monthly distributions/dividends and requires very little attention. In my last review I outlined why

Hawking Portfolio Review: 14 July 2025

July 15, 2025 By hedgehunter 4 Comments

Rutherford-Darwin Portfolio Review: 21 February 2025

February 24, 2025 By hedgehunter Leave a Comment
