We are taking profit on APA Group (APA) in the Active Growth Portfolio only (retaining the position in the Income Portfolio). APA has enjoyed a strong rally, and we remain positive from a yield perspective (~5.6%), though we see limited growth from here. We are taking a ~50% profit, and will be addressing this from a capital gains perspective with some further tweaks to the portfolio in the coming days.
We are buying South32 (S32) to increase our exposure to Aluminum, Copper & Manganese, with a small Silver kicker. We are bullish on the outlook for commodities, and see S32 as well placed to capture this momentum.
