    GCP Infrastructure Investments: capital preservation and reliable, inflation-linked income from UK infrastructure projects

    Philip Kent, CEO of Gravis Capital and Lead Manager of GCP Infrastructure Investments (LSE: GCP), joins UK Investor Magazine to discuss the state of the infrastructure investment trust sector and how GCP is designed to achieve capital preservation and reliable, inflation-linked income from UK infrastructure projects. Infrastructure trusts have spent much of the past few years trading at wide discounts to NAV. Philip explains why, how Gravis-managed portfolios react to interest rate moves, and how the team balances income against capital protection in a weak economy. The conversation also covers the outlook for infrastructure dividends over the next five years, opportunities in net zero and the energy transition, and where capital is flowing across the UK today. Philip addresses the health of GCP’s debt book directly, including whether any project borrowers are falling behind on interest payments. From the perspective of investors who may use an ISA or SIPP, Philip outlines the portfolio mix, the advantages listed vehicles offer over private funds, and the most common misconceptions about infrastructure investing. He closes with how Gravis is approaching AI and what role infrastructure should play alongside equities and bonds in a diversified portfolio. Topics covered: Why infrastructure trusts trade at discounts to NAVInterest rate sensitivityIncome vs capital protectionDividend sustainability over five yearsNet zero and energy transition opportunitiesWhere UK infrastructure capital is goingDebt quality and borrower performanceGCP’s portfolio mix for ISA and SIPP holdersListed vs private infrastructure fundsGravis Capital’s approach to AIRetail misconceptions about infrastructureInfrastructure in a diversified portfolio Hosted on Acast.

    Catching share price re-ratings early with Ed Croft, CEO of Stockopedia

    The UK Investor Magazine was delighted to welcome Ed Croft, CEO of Stockopedia, back to the podcast to delve into Stockopedia’s rules-based investing indicators and how investors can gain an edge on share price re-ratings. In this episode, he discusses new research into a pattern he had traded on instinct for years: what happens when a company’s quality score jumps sharply upward. Register for the webinar here. The conversation covers: What a StockRank is: how Stockopedia scores every company on the market out of 100 based on how good, how cheap and how improving the business is, and why the top-ranked shares have historically outperformed while the lowest-ranked have lagged. Why the score jumps: the public information that drives a sudden re-rating, from company results and broker upgrades to the language in a trading statement, which often shifts before the numbers do. The central finding: why change beats level, and how the company that has just become excellent tends to outperform the one that was always excellent. Why the market is slow to catch on: the decades-old academic thinking behind the effect, and why it is strongest among the small companies institutions cannot reach. Where it works and where it fails: the sweet spot, the danger zones, real companies that quietly re-rated, why the well-known compounders never triggered the signal, and a Rolls-Royce case where the score turned ahead of the headlines. What to do with it: practical rules for using a jump as a trigger to research rather than a signal to buy, when to sell, and an honest account of where the approach falls short.
