A relatively quiet week for the fund to cap a stellar first quarter. We achieved our target of an average of $3.00 per share per week for a total return of 410% which puts us on target to delist somewhere in the region of $175, subject of course to a fair wind and the occasional summer blockbuster.
This week the focus of attention has switched to our derivative positions - not often you can say that about a studio based Movie Fund - particularly the NominOptions. Fortunately we are well represented this year with ‘The Revenant’, ‘The Martian’, ‘Joy’, ‘Brooklyn’ and ‘Youth’ represented in numerous categories. At the time of writing all positions are profitable but obviously there will be many twists and turns before we have to decide whether or not to hold for the duration.
In the coming week we have an interesting IPO of the Kenneth Branagh vehicle ‘Murder on the Orient Express’ (MOTOE), which should give us some good day trading opportunities, followed by the wide release of ‘Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip’ (ALVN4), which is frankly starting to look like a sequel too far.
Christmas week looks like being a busy one for the fund which will probably establish the foundation for our second quarter performance. However more on that next week.
happy hunting,
