Oops @charming soul, my bad (I'm getting that often of late!).
I was trying to say that both JUB and NMG are owned by Aga Khan. Whereas JUB has given you good return, the unspoken reason one would consider
a switch is because of the human urge to keep 'active' or 'busy' that trading often satisfies.
However, time is the friend of the beautiful company. JUB grew last year at 26% whereas NMG has been struggling to break even. Which mirrors the tribulations of Publishing as compared to Insurance industry.
At face value, dividend can also be very misleading. Would you pick NMG's (5% div yield, -40% price loss) over JUB (1.36% yield, 20% price gain)?
