In defence of inactivity – why frequent trading and trend chasing can harm long-term performance
What causes investors to trade too frequently? How much could it cost you in the long run? How can investors avoid the temptation to react to trends?
If you want to make more of your investments and leave the hassle of selecting the investments to us, you may want to consider the Wealth Club Portfolio Service.
You can invest through an ISA or SIPP (Self Invested Personal Pension): you can make new subscriptions or transfer existing investments. If you have used up your allowances, you can also invest through a GIA (General Investment Account).
Our discretionary Managed Portfolios are long-term investments which can fall as well as rise in value; returns are not guaranteed. They are for investors happy to make their own investment decisions – they are not personal advice. If unsure an investment is right for you, please seek advice.

With pensions, like our new Private Markets SIPP, you could get up to £4.5k (45%) in pension tax relief on every £10k you invest. Read more on how it works, the rules and how you could benefit.
Does your portfolio still suit your lifestyle?
A neglected portfolio could be more vulnerable to performance setbacks, and compounding is an equally powerful force in the opposite direction.
