Here are the comparisons for each separate year for the XIRR of HYP versus VUKE.
Date | ArbHYP | VUKE
31-Dec-20 | -8.31% | -7.93%
31-Dec-21 | 18.67% | 18.03%
30-Dec-22 | 0.68% | 5.30%
30-Dec-23 | 5.59% | -1.83%
If my arithmetic is correct, I make that HYP is in the lead by a small margin. Not surprisingly, the numbers follow fairly well, which is conforting for my record keeping! - except for the last two years. This might be explained by post covid realignment of particular shares and dividends, but I have double checked and the numbers look correct. Another factor is that my HYP is "dynamic" i.e. has occasional fresh capital - but so far the VUKE has received no extra money.
Now I have gotten around to doing this I might as well carry on - particularly if anyone finds it interesting or amusing.
