Yes, apparently. Pity I'm not moving my money out of my unit trust today, I could have saved a few grand...

Patrick - if your U/T has a year end of December annually maybe you should not move your funds out until the last 2 days of December. Watch the price and when it just about peeks then sell - you will find that most fund managers do extensive window dressing just prior to the U/T's year end. The returns on my U/T are dismal so I too will be selling off my units and investing directly into the market, where I can get a better return. I am prepared to take the knock in terms of CGT, dividends and interest

@gcr, thanks for the advice. I'll see if I can do that! Only trouble is, I planned to send it offshore, and need to do that in this calendar year. Not sure if it will clear in time...

Interesting article this morning on Moneyweb "In 10 years, 40% of the Top 40 has changed" Very interesting to see who dropped out of the Top 40 and who came in - resources seem to have taken a beating second to none

just avoid iron ore, oil and gold Jadeb. Copper and coal (depsite COP21) should have a good 2016
