Dear %%first_name%%,

Now that Prime Minister Julia Gillard has delivered Kevin Rudd a crushing defeat, let’s get on with what really matters – the markets! And, in today’s Report, I tell you why news out of Germany keeps me cautiously bullish.

Also in the Switzer Super Report, we analyse the hybrid rush and whether or not you should buy into it. We also bring you up to date with all the changes to buy and sell ratings that have occurred in the past week as a result of the earnings season. Plus, we take a look at what it takes to own collectables like rare coins in your SMSF. Have a great week.



Sincerely,

Peter Switzer

If you have a newly registered SMSF, your fund must lodge its tax return by tomorrow, Tuesday 28 February. The lodgement date for non-taxable large and medium business super funds is also tomorrow and payments, if required, are due on this date. Excluding new funds, if you prepare your own SMSF return and you don't lodge on time, your due date for lodgement will be 31 October 2012.
