Dear %%first_name%%,

Charlie Aitken is very optimistic about the market reaching 6,000 given the powerful reports from those big boy miners BHP and Rio. He’s very encouraged by their efforts to cut costs and thinks they may now be in for a bit of a renaissance, even as commodity prices head lower.

This week, the Switzer Super Report comes to you live from the SMSF Professional Association of Australia conference, where we have editor Penny Pryor with her ear to the ground on all that’s going on at the forefront of the SMSF industry. Find out everything you need to know in Short ‘n’ Sweet today.

You can also watch what Paul Rickard and I think of the current market outlook, the earnings season and all this talk of the banks being overvalued on Super TV. Roger Montgomery is flying high on Flight Centre, in Buy, Sell, Hold – what the brokers say, Westpac, Ardent Leisure Group and Asciano get upgraded and Barrie Dunstan casts his cautious eye over the CBA result and explains why you need to stress test your portfolio.

And don’t miss Brittany Ruppert’s jargon buster, if you’ve ever wondered what a listed investment company (or LIC) really is and how they work.



Sincerely,

Peter Switzer

Paul Rickard and I got together this week for a quick discussion on the earnings season, and all this talk about banks being overvalued. Find out what we really think on Super TV.
