Dear %%first_name%%,

My message for you today is not to be shaken, or stirred, by what’s going on in the markets lately. I stick firmly to my view that we will end the year higher, not lower, as the fundamentals are all still strong. Earnings season in the US is currently underway and that will also provide some guidance. Today, I explain why there is no need to stress.

Also in the Switzer Super Report today, Paul Rickard road tests a new ETF that is focussed on income and based on a UBS research index. Speaking of income, we also have James Dunn’s analysis of which infrastructure stocks will provide you with the best yield.

Gary Stone gives you the technical lowdown on the Aussie dollar – it might go higher before it goes lower, in Shortlisted we explain why Dick Smith and Telstra are on our radar, and in Buy, Sell, Hold – what the brokers say, Woolworths and Carsales.com.au get upgrades.



Sincerely,

Peter Switzer

Easter is one of the slowest weekends of the year for auction clearance rates so we have no update today. According to APM, there were just 30 auctions in Sydney and only two reported in Melbourne – a far cry from the thousands reported on the Super Saturday prior to Easter.
