Argo Investments Limited ( (AU:ARG) ) has issued an announcement.

Argo Investments Limited reported a half-year profit of $121.2 million and declared a record high fully franked interim dividend of 17.0 cents per share. The company’s portfolio revenue increased due to higher-than-expected dividends, but was offset by lower income from other activities. The company outperformed the S&P/ASX 200 Accumulation Index for the year, although it slightly trailed in the last six months. Argo remains optimistic about the domestic economy despite market volatility following Donald Trump’s election and is poised to take advantage of short-term opportunities with its diversified portfolio, including US dollar revenue-generating stocks.
