How have my portfolios performed?

It has been a tumultuous few months on the markets.  To protect the downside risk I sold a number of investments in the winter and early spring, particularly those associated with creating, maintaining or holding property:

• Dewhurst sold 26th February at £7.22 (buying prices ranged from £3.18 to £5.64)
• TClarke sold 26th February at £1.1215 (buying price 79.16p)
• J Smart sold 17th March at £1.1712 and 15th April at £1.067 (buying price £1.13 and £1.16)
• Caledonian Trust 1st April at £1.3915 (buying prices ranged from 70p to £2.29)

Northamber, a wholesaler of electronic goods, was also sold (at 57.17p - it was bought a few months before at 50.4p) because I worry about the quality of the managers who now have to face a severe recession.
Thus, I have shifted the portfolio to hold more cash.  However, there were two opportunities to buy which I couldn’t resist:

• A doubling of my holding in Connect Group in mid-March at 15.1p
• More than doubled my holding in Character Group, at an average of £2.811, in January and June.

Before the pandemic I made a bit of money by purchasing what I thought was a long term holding in property company Daejan at £52.90 per share on 5th February. A few days later the controlling family made a good offer to take the Group private.  I sold at £79.41 on 21st February.
In January I bought into the deep value investment of Wynnstay, a farm supplies company, at £3.173.
The tables below show the results (so far) of the shares bought for the portfolios I’ve been writing about in my Newsletters. The comments I made at the time explaining the rationale for each investment are available for you to read in older newsletters - there is nowhere for me to hide from my appraisals made three, four or five years ago.
I present the returns after taking the hit on broker costs, stamp duty and bid/offer spread.
My first purchase was 25th July 2013 when the FTSE100 was at 6,620. It is now at 6,170.
(Some of you have joined us recently so, in case you are not familiar with them, I briefly describe the criteria for my portfolios following the portfolio performance tables.)
