Re: recent performance affected by EU Ref thomas moore is doing a good job with stock selection but the ftse peaked well over a year ago so i doubt brexit has had much effect on SLET .
recent performance affected by EU Ref "Standard Life Equity Income Trust (SLET) is a multi-cap UK portfolio made up of manager Thomas Moores 50-70 best ideas for achieving a high and growing income with the potential for capital appreciation. The manager seeks attractively valued stocks with strong earnings and dividend growth potential that may not have been fully appreciated by the market. He currently sees better fundamentals in stocks outside the blue-chip FTSE 100 Index, and the trust has a large weighting (60%+) to smaller and midcap stocks as a result. Recent performance has been affected by poor sentiment towards UK domestic stocks in the run-up to the EU referendum; there is potential for this to reverse if, as widely expected, Britain votes to remain in the EU, although a Brexit vote could have the opposite effect."
