Ruffer Investment Co Ltd - Guernsey-registered investment trust managed by London-based Ruffer LLP - Net asset value per share is 301.70 pence on June 30, down 1.3% from 305.67 pence a month before. The June decline in NAV swings the trust's return in 2026 so far to negative 0.1% from positive 1.2% at the end of May. However, NAV per share remains up 4.4% over the past 12 months. Ruffer says the "marginally negative" performance last month was due to "protection assets losing value as volatility retraced, and some of the contrarian growth exposure continuing to decline". More positive was the trust's increased exposure to the US dollar, which benefited from the expectation of a US rate hike this year following the first Federal Reserve policy meeting under Chair Kevin Warsh.

Ruffer Investment Co Ltd - Guernsey-registered investment trust managed by London-based Ruffer LLP - Net asset value per share is 305.67 pence on May 31, down 0.2% during the month though still up 1.2% so far in 2026. Amid fluctuating market responses to the US-Israeli war on Iran, May was a risk-on month, Ruffer says, causing the trust's protective derivative positions to hurt performance. Read More
Ruffer Investment Co Ltd - investment trust managed by London-based Ruffer LLP - Releases its monthly investment report for March. Reports net asset value return of minus 1.8% for March, but plus 2.0% for the year to date. Share price returns are plus 0.8% and 5.0%, respectively. Notes that "markets that we like", including the UK, were hit by the Middle East conflict's anticipated impact on energy prices and supplies, and that March saw "more sellers of gold than might have been expected". Says buybacks in the first quarter were slower than previously, totalling around 400,000 shares, due to its discount to NAV "materially" narrowing". Says the "fund's protections provided largely positive performance", including from its "topped up" crude oil allocation, which comprised about 5% of the portfolio and which it "actively traded" in March, and from its credit and volatility protections.
