This UK investment trust has a 39% position in Nvidia stock!
Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) recently became the world's first firm to hit a $4trn valuation. Since then, the stock has chugged higher, and the chipmaker is now a $4.23trn behemoth. For context, that extra bit on the end is roughly equivalent to the market cap of AstraZeneca. In other words, Nvidia's recent $230bn rise is almost equal to the market value of the FTSE 100's current biggest beast. Indeed, the AI computing giant is now worth more than the entire FTSE 100 combined, with over $1trn to spare. Let that sink in. Due to its ascent, Nvidia has become tech royalty, and rightly so. These days, it's hard to find a tech-focused fund or investment trust that doesn't hold it. Not doing so risks underperformance, a bit like leaving Erling Haaland out of your fantasy football team. The stock is up around 1,600% over five years! Going all-in Sticking with the fantasy football theme, imagine if you could have three Erling Haalands in your portfolio. Just think of all those extra juicy points you might get. In some ways, that is what Manchester & London Investment Trust (LSE: MNL) has done. In its latest June 2025 factsheet, it had a 38.9% weighting to Nvidia. And 26% and 7.1% of net assets in Microsoft and Broadcom, respectively. That means the trust has nearly three-quarters of its portfolio in just three tech stocks! This trio are central to the AI revolution. Nvidia still dominates with its powerful GPUs, while Broadcom makes custom chips and networking hardware used in AI data centres. Microsoft owns part of ChatGPT and has rolled out AI features like Copilot to boost productivity. This extreme concentration has produced tremendous results, though. In the three years to 1 July, Manchester & London Investment Trust's net asset value surged 131.2%. The period coincides with the release of ChatGPT in November 2022, after which Nvidia's share price took off like a rocket. AI era Of course, this massive concentration also adds risk. If Microsoft, Broadcom and/or Nvidia tank, then the trust would underperform badly. Explaining this lack of portfolio diversification, lead manager Mark Sheppard wrote in September: 'Sadly, we do believe the outstanding winners from the AI era may in time be counted on the fingers of two hands. So what are we meant to do? Diversify to dilute performance? Punish our winners for proving they are elite?' Another risk here is a sudden slowdown in AI investments and spending by companies. This would be acutely felt by Nvidia, whose lofty price-to-earnings ratio of 55 is based on expectations of robust future growth. However, the trust doesn't see this happening. It says the AI era is in its infancy: 'AI offers enormous promise and we think this could be one of the most exciting investment and research periods of the century.' Should I invest? To be honest, I admire this bold approach, and it has certainly delivered the goods for shareholders over the last three years. However, I won't be investing myself because I already own Nvidia shares. Increasing my exposure further would be reckless. Investors looking at the trust have to be really bullish on Nvidia and the AI age. The shares are trading at a 12.8% discount to net asset value, but this is definitely in the high-risk, high-reward camp.

Best Stock to Buy Right Now: Apple vs. Costco Wholesale
Key Points Apple and Costco are arguably two of the finest consumer-facing companies you can put money in. Both companies have slowed in recent years, but have years of steady earnings growth ahead. It's close, but there is a winner due to the valuation gap between the two. 10 stocks we like better than Apple › You'll struggle to find better consumer-facing companies than Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) and Costco Wholesale (NASDAQ: COST). These two companies have built massive, loyal customer followings, and their stocks have delivered life-changing investment returns over the years on their way to becoming two of the world's largest companies by market cap. While both stocks may struggle to deliver the same level of returns they did in their earlier years, both can still be long-term winners in a stock portfolio. That said, you shouldn't just buy at any price, especially for maturing companies like Apple and Costco Wholesale. So, which is the better buy now? Here is what you need to know. Both companies still have some juice left Apple is a leading smartphone and personal electronics company, renowned for its iOS ecosystem, which has over 2.35 billion active users worldwide. Costco is a leading membership-only big-box warehouse retailer, where members can buy a variety of goods, often sold in bulk quantities. Both companies are well-established in their core businesses, but continue to demonstrate the ability to grow, albeit at a slower pace than in the past. With annual revenue in the billions, it's challenging to maintain high growth rates, but growth remains. Apple continues to slowly increase its user base while also growing by offering a variety of subscription services to its users. Service revenue totaled nearly $53 billion through the first half of this year, up 12.7% year over year. For Costco, there is some growth in merchandise sales as inflation lifts prices higher, but its core growth engine is membership growth. Costco's paid memberships increased by 6.8% year over year in the latest quarter to 79.6 million. Membership dues contribute the majority of the company's profits. Overall, both companies have solid -- if not gigantic -- growth prospects. Analysts estimate that Apple will grow its earnings by an average of 10.6% annually over the long term, compared to about 9% for Costco. The two stocks have performed remarkably similarly over the past decade Despite these companies operating very different businesses, their stock prices have performed similarly over the past 10 years. From a share price standpoint, Costco and Apple have generated nearly identical annualized returns over the past decade, and both have vastly outperformed the S&P 500. Both companies pay small-yielding regular dividends, too. Apple has paid and raised its dividend for 12 consecutive years, while Costco has done the same for 20 years. Their dividend yields are similar, ranging from about 0.4% to 0.5%. However, Costco occasionally pays special dividends, giving it a slight edge for investors who look for dividend income. But one is the better buy right now Analysts currently expect a little more growth from Apple moving forward than from Costco, but it may also be a bit riskier than Costco. Apple has struggled to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) features into its iOS devices. The company has had to revisit the drawing board. However, Apple users tend to be quite loyal, and the iOS ecosystem is very sticky. So, while it may be too soon to panic, Apple needs to get AI right at some point, or it could face disruptive threats from competitors. Despite this, Apple is still the better stock to buy now. Why? Costco's stock returns over the past decade have been driven in part by valuation expansion. In other words, Costco's stock price has expanded faster than its profits. Today, Costco Wholesale trades at a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of nearly 54. That's far too high for a business expected to grow earnings at a 9% annualized pace moving forward. Apple isn't a bargain at a P/E ratio of 33, but it is far more attractive, assuming the company delivers double-digit earnings growth as expected. Apple also repurchases massive amounts of its stock, which should help drive earnings growth, even as the company navigates its AI learning curve. Should you invest $1,000 in Apple right now? Before you buy stock in Apple, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the for investors to buy now… and Apple wasn't one of them. The 10 stocks that made the cut could produce monster returns in the coming years. Consider when Netflix made this list on December 17, 2004... if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation, you'd have $636,774!* Or when Nvidia made this list on April 15, 2005... if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation, you'd have $1,064,942!* Now, it's worth noting Stock Advisor's total average return is 1,040% — a market-crushing outperformance compared to 182% for the S&P 500.
