Algo Update – S32 Generates 52% Return

Following the Algo buy signal, S32 was added to the ASX50 model portfolio in February 2017 at $2.50.

The stock price rallied to $4.00 this year, then sold-off and created a “lower high” formation; an Algo sell signal was generated last week.

We continue our technological research in algorithm trading and remain encouraged by historical testing results.

We’re increasingly applying the rule -based model into our broader portfolio management style.

Sydney Airports – generating 10%+ cash flow

Sydney Airports reported March quarter traffic growth of 6%, with International up 11% and domestic up 3.5%.

Total passenger volume was up 4% on the same time last year.

We’re comfortable buying SYD and selling a $7.00 call option to enhance the yield.

A combination of the dividend and the option premium is generating 10%+ cash flow on an annualised basis.

SYD goes ex-div on the 29th June for 16.5 cents per share.
