The only reason MGF is not $1.30 is because the different funds of Magellan are buying units back. I subscribe to foxtell and watch BBC, CNN, CNBC, BLOOMBERG at night and watching the S & P 500 pre open. Then wake up for the close early next morning. Its not great news and even Amazon made a loss last Quarter and got hammered. Federal reserve threat to raise interest rates twice by 0.5% has spooked consumers. NASDAQ is weak, Apple find support @ $150, Microsoft @ $275 could fall lower, google @$ 2,229 has fallen straight through support. Unprofitable Teck has fallen by -60%. Be prepared for more weakness.
Meanwhile the ASX 200 IS ONE OF THE STRONGEST iNDICIES in the world and has a tripple top on the strength of Commodities ,banks.
I am going to a presentation by Emma Kirk at the ASA Sydney Investment hour in May. I follow many of the conversations on Hot Copper and will ask her. Why doesn't Magellan lower their 1.35% management fee to 0.9% to stop the exit of money from funds. They also charge a performance fee (which has been very poor last 6 months) Rather than use their cash to buy their own units, why not buy more US stock?
