Over the past year I have increasingly focussed on US small/medium stocks, doing my own research to identify either a) Cheap companies growing well with clear market opportunity b) Companies likely to beat earnings in the short term (& this is not fully factored into the price)

My largest two holdings are MSI and BKS and I remain very positive on both. Whilst the UK market is currently more difficult for investors focused on small cap growth there are still some great companies.

DAVE and FOUR both reported yesterday. DAVE is up 45% today having blown estimates out the water for the quarter and FOUR fell 5% yesterday but back up today after a small beat.

Growth portolfio YTD - 11% UK: #MSI #GDWN #FTC #JNEO US: #NUTX Sold lots including #DAVE which I like but not currently. Will monitor! Added #JNEO. Increased #NUTX Outside this growth portfolio mitigated by income portfolio (+1%YTD) which has quite a few UK REITS.

Growth portfolio YTD +1% 12% turnaround in two weeks due to NUTX tripling. I increased at 70p. Sold 1/4 after recent rise but I hold the rest. Superconcentrated portolio now. Bought back DAVE, moved GDWN to LT income portfolio, sold FTC USA: #NUTX, #DAVE UK: #MSI, #JNEO

My turnover of companies in last few months has been a bit absurd - a brokers dream client. It has taken me time to get to grips with US small caps and the symptom of this was very high turnover. No doubt I will still find new companies but portfolio should be more stable now

Growth portfolio YTD +2%. No sales, one addition #RDDT which has huge potential as the 7th most visited website in the world. Smaller position than my others. Still high cash balance - expecting more market turmoil over coming weeks. USA: #NUTX, #DAVE, #RDDT UK: #MSI, #JNEO

#DAVE up 40% today after smashing forecasts and raising FY outlook by 40%. In a concentrated portfolio this is extremely helpful.

YTD +18% which is quite a change from -11% c six weeks ago. My largest holdings remain #NUTX and #DAVE - both releasing excellent trading statements and the driver of the YTD increase - benefits of a concentrated portfolio. Added #ALAB & #PSIX - still hold #RDDT, #MSI, #JNEO
