Newmont Mining makes third offer for Newcrest Mining in a “best and final” bid
David Buckland
April 12, 2023
After first purchasing the company in October 2022, readers of The Montgomery Fund reports will know we have steadily added to the position in Newcrest Mining (ASX:NCM) over recent months.

David Buckland
April 3, 2023
One of the reasons our business partners, Australian Eagle Asset Management, Montgomery Lucent and Polen Capital, focus on higher quality companies with relatively strong and enduring cash-flow is they rarely suffer such crashes often requiring highly dilutionary capital raisings. continue…

How to manage risk in your portfolio
Sean Sequeira
March 24, 2023
Most of us tend to be better at buying and holding stocks than we are at selling. After all, buying is the fun part – it’s when optimism is kicking in. But knowing how to sell is just as important when it comes to your returns.

Roger Montgomery
March 13, 2023
On 7 March, funeral services provider, Invocare (ASX:IVC), received an unsolicited, non-binding indicative offer from giant U.S. private equity firm, TPG Global. TPG offered to buy all the shares in IVC through a scheme of arrangement for $12.65 per share – a 40 per cent premium to its previous close. Based on a quick calculation, I think this is a pretty good deal for IVC shareholders. continue…

Is QBE finally back on track?
Sean Sequeira
March 9, 2023

After hitting a high of around $34 back in 2007, the stock has more than halved to around $15. But a new management team seems to be steering the business in the right direction, and many analysts see QBE as a turnaround story. continue…

A tough road ahead for consumer discretionary businesses
David Buckland
March 2, 2023
In late-2022 Australian household deposits were $175 billion above trend, and this “extra cash” was largely in the hands of the 65+ years of age cohort. After many years of financial repression, these older Australians will enjoy earning a more reasonable return on their spare cash. continue…

Roger Montgomery
February 27, 2023
If you’ve travelled lately and felt stung by the big increases in airfares and accommodation prices, you might think about ‘revenge investing’ in some travel companies.

Why we hold a material position in Seven Group
Michael Gollagher

Seven Group Holdings (ASX:SVW) is a diversified company with businesses and investments in industrial services, media and energy. We particularly like the company’s exposure to mining services and infrastructure investment – via WesTrac, Coates Hire and Boral – and its high quality management. Together, these factors should continue to drive earnings and share price performance over the long term. continue…

If you are an income investor, it pays to think long-term
Roger Montgomery
February 22, 2023
The past year has seen a distinct switch in investor focus from growth to yield. The irony, of course, is that many so-called ‘dividend stocks’ can be long-term wealth killers. And that’s why we prefer quality businesses – like CSL – which can grow both their market value, and their dividends, over time. continue…
