Argo Investments Limited ( (AU:ARG) ) has provided an update.
Argo Investments reported that its net tangible asset (NTA) backing per share rose to $10.44 at 30 April from $10.24 a month earlier, or $8.94 after allowing for unrealised tax on portfolio gains. The update highlighted a portfolio heavily weighted to major Australian blue chips such as BHP, Macquarie Group and the big four banks, with no cash holdings and a strong, debt-free balance sheet supporting its long-term strategy.
The company noted that global equity markets rallied in April on renewed enthusiasm for AI-related infrastructure and easing geopolitical risks, with the U.S. market rebounding sharply and the S&P/ASX 200 Accumulation Index gaining 2.2%. Within Australia, technology and REIT stocks led gains while energy shares fell as oil prices retreated, and Argo emphasised its conservative, resilient investment approach and history of fully franked dividends through multiple market cycles.
