We are pleased to report our MF2 fund has now closed at a price of $3,403. The gains made from $1,000 were due to a high level of currency trading and a balanced portfolio in property and deposits. The fund is now terminated.

The slow start in this fund was due to December 2009 being a poor month for us on the currency market. Our private equity funding will take a major part in the activities of the fund along with property. We are looking for a reasonable gain in March due to revaluations and a steady growth during this time with our trading account. As the global economy starts to make grounds for a return to active trading in all sectors, we have high expectations for 2010.

Our continued growth is again being helped by our clients, a visit to Thailand by a few of our staff was well received and we thank everyone there for the kind welcome made to us. We are close to closing a business deal in Switzerland which could, if all is well, provide an improvement to our clients’ services.

The UK property developments are going ahead on time, thanks to DH. The US business has gained yet more property which is already rented out. We are looking to open a new fund for the US which will be for US property only and regulated there. This will allow Americans to invest in their own market place.

Elkie Brooks and her (hubby) Trevor, have invited us to take part in an annual concert in memory of Humphrey Lyttleton. We will keep you posted as the event gets closer.
