Further evidence of the United States' economic strength also helped fuel the rally. Influenced largely by these offshore factors, Australian shares posted strong gains (up +3.8%) and hit a new high. Argo’s monthly per share net tangible assets (NTA) also reached a record high, increasing +4.0% to $10.27 per share. A key contributor to Argo’s positive performance was our holding in Technology One.
