Dear %%first_name%%,

One of the big tests for the Trump rally will be when the US President’s key policies, including his tax plans, go to US Congress for approval. There’s also a range of economic data both here and abroad to watch this week, so, in today’s note, I look at what this could mean for the market.

Also in the Switzer Super Report, with the turnaround in commodity prices last year, Paul Rickard discusses Rio Tinto’s result and three options for investing in resource companies. And James Dunn has the latest on the reporting season so far. Out this week: Commonwealth Bank, Telstra, Wesfarmers and more.

Plus, Graeme Colley explains what you need to know about transition to retirement income streams, and why they can still be useful, despite super changes later this year. And in Buy, Sell, Hold – what the brokers say, AMP copped a downgrade from brokers while Sims Metal Management was upgraded.



Sincerely,

Peter Switzer
