CISP Third Anniversary Performance Review.

2/4/2018

As promised on Friday here is a more in depth look at the performance of the Compound Income Scores Portfolio (CISP). As mentioned already it the last post it was a weak month for returns from both the portfolio and markets in general, although the CISP did outperform the market by falling less.

The better performing stocks which helped to produce this out performance were: 
Miton Group (MGR) which benefited from being cheap and reporting strong results as expected, as did Portmeirion (PMP). Ferguson (FERG) reported good results and a special dividend as it continues to benefit from a robust US economy. Avon Rubber (AVON) meanwhile gained on the back of some more orders and associated upgrades to its forecasts. While rounding out the top five, Bloomsbury Publishing (BMY) was just recovering from prior unexplained losses during the recent market volatility as their trading update reassured.

On he downside the negative stocks which detracted from performance (which all seemed to suffer despite reporting decent results) were Jarvis Securities (JIM), Zytronic (ZYT), Ferrexpo (FXP), Headlam (HEAD) and Tapitica (TAP). 

In terms of this months screening, of the stocks mentioned above Headlam, Portmeirion and Taptica together with a couple of other names came close to the drop zone but on balance given the comments above I have decided to give them all the benefit of the doubt for now to keep turnover down in volatile market conditions, although I note that Headlam now also has poor 12 month momentum so unless it picks up in the next month it seem possible it might not make the cut next month.

Looking at the longer term performance as it is now the third anniversary of the inception of the CISP I'm really very pleased with the 60% returns it has achieved. Now this may well be a reward for undiversified risk and only a short time frame, but it has at least been achieved from a very active portfolio with high active share (it is not a closet tracker). As already mentioned in the previous post this is well ahead of the 17.2% produced by the All Share Index. 

For a broader comparison I took a look at the UK Income universe of Unit Trusts & OEIC's on a total return basis over the same period where the top ten looked like this:

So it is pleasing to see that the CISP was well ahead of the professional competition with the top performer Chelverton producing 34.5%. So at least I must be doing something right with the Scores and how they are being implemented here. It was also amusing to see Woodford Equity Income coming in at Number 79 in the list with a -0.8% return after his recent high profile problems.

For what they are worth I also had a look at Stockopedia's Guru Screens over the last three years and see that the top Income Screen also produced 37% although I don't think they include income, but that still wouldn't be enough to make up the difference & the list of 10 stocks produced for the top performing PYAD Screen seem pretty bizarre. In fact the most sensible ones with reasonable diversifications seem to be the Best Dividend and Dividend Achievers Screens. So if your a subscriber to Stockopedia you could always check those out for ideas but if not click here for a free trial to Stockopdia. 
While looking at the full list of Stockopedia Guru Screens some of the momentum based and more sensible investors such as William o'Neil, Jim Slater, James O'Shaughnesy & Robbie Burns seem to have done better but again you might need to sanity check the output of some of those.

Finally For a bit of sport I'd thought I'd also compare the CISP performance to the All Companies Universe and was pleasantly surprised to see that it has also outperformed 98% of those with only 4 out of 248 doing better and interestingly Chelverton also featuring towards the top of this list too.

So well done if you have read this far and sorry for blowing my own trumpet, but I guess nobody else will. As I'd like to bring the Scores to a wider audience and as it's Easter I would like to offer readers until Thursday 5th April 2018, a free sample of this weeks Scores. This will come with a Portfolio tab where you can plug in your own tickers and nominal number of shares held to value your holdings and see how they Score too, although this will only work in the main for UK stocks with a yield as the CIS universe excludes zero yielders and you will need a spreadsheet programme and you may have to check your junk mail to receive it. If that is of interest please get in touch via the contact form & I'll personally e-mail you a copy. Happy Easter.
