Saba's UK investment trust fund reported up 42% in first nine months of 2026

Bloomberg, cited by Hedgeweek, reports that Boaz Weinstein's Saba Capital generated a roughly 42% net return in its UK investment trust-focused fund through 30 September 2026. The report says returns were driven by restructurings at UK investment trusts including Herald Investment Trust and a Fundsmith-managed vehicle, and that the performance prompted Weinstein to consider reopening the fund to new investors. A Saba representative declined to comment.
