Say that again?
What is the relationship between a Big Mac combo from three years back & IFT?
I would suggest IFT management are more of a profit center than a Big Mac combo from three years back :)

I was wondering mate so thought I shud ask u ....
U have two stock portfolio with CURRENT ratio being 80% IFT and 20% FPH as per your last disclosure .
Did u start with these ratios OR over the period of time it became like this keeping in view IFT doing much better then FPH at present ...may had been different when FPH was flying high above $ 36 ?
PS : Aim is to know how to manage such simple portfolios ...keep rebalancing at regular intervals or let them run as they go ?
I always have taken up allotment of most new listings since the 80's up until around 5 years ago.
Lately I haven't added any new listings as I couldn't get enough to be worthwhile or appeared sub par investments/businesses cf IFT or FPH
I added more IFT as I went & maintained initial FPH(did sell some FPH,15%, 5? years ago)
& sold the other laggards when needed some funds for other investments or when market seemed to be turning & needing to pay off some OD
From memory sold
FBU many moons ago
WHS @ $7.50 cashed for projects
Skl @ $2.50 after buying in cash issue @ $0.50
AIA $6.20 after reading book on pandemics
RBD @ $2.50? after buying in when RBJ disclosed his holding
ARV $1.30 on way up when market turning pay off some OD
Turners @ $3.50 when market turning pay off some OD
SKC @ $3.50 when market turning pay off some OD
MHI,NPH,THL, etc pay off some OD
Now comfortable letting them run as I go with no rebalancing.

Returns?
I know what which one I'd rather invest in.
Looks like the $10 IFT deal is back for a limited time.
Did you know when people talk about "portfolio risk" its not just the risk of going lower its also the risk of going higher
From Google
"Is it a good idea to rebalance your portfolio?
https://www.google.com/search?q=port...hrome&ie=UTF-8
It may reduce the volatility of your investment portfolio and keeps the asset allocation in sync with your risk tolerance. If you don't rebalance, a diversified portfolio will maintain a higher return on investment with only slightly greater volatility"
Time is your friend if the portfolio is not rebalanced
From Forbes
"Investment risk tends to increase as the return on investment increases"

Longroad Energy Investor Day

In September One NZ – now 99% owned by Infratil, following our June purchase of the stake previously owned by Brookfield Asset Management - launched the first of its new ‘resilient’ retail stores. The new Napier store has an uninterruptable power supply battery backup and its own small cell (think mini cell tower), meaning should grid power fail, as happened in February’s Cyclone Gabrielle, the store can continue to operate – offering customers a way to reach loved ones, and charge their phones, tablets, and other connected tech. The need to focus on resilience and connectivity, as well as having the local store, was highlighted by locals during One NZ's cyclone response and support in the region.
During the quarter our Australian radiology business, Qscan, opened two new clinics - Qscan Newstead in Brisbane, and Qscan Maroochydore on the Sunshine Coast.
RetireAustralia received approval to develop a retirement village at Parkside Yeronga which will bring much needed age-friendly living options to the south of Brisbane. Plans for the new village include 159 independent living apartments, a boutique 10-suite care hub, and indoor and outdoor communal spaces
For the nerds among us this article about Kao, with the appt of the new chair last month, is very interesting. Not least because of the name. The UK's approach to tertiary/tech company synergy has been an oft profitable one.

Hmm, risk free rises from 3.65 to 3.75%. I guess we are using the Swiss risk free rate for that one 🤔
