Dear %%first_name%%,
At this time of the year it’s wise to think about how you want to invest next year. I’m going to stick with my general view that being in stocks for 2020 is a sound idea. And my Christmas offering to you today is 13 stocks to consider as you set yourself up for 2020.
In his article today, Paul (Rickard) has an outside the square idea for you: why not consider surprising your kids or grandkids with a parcel of shares? In the first of two articles, Paul looks at tax issues, he road tests the bank accounts designed for kids and how to buy shares for minors.
With Christmas fast approaching, you might be looking for specific gifts to give your kids or grandkids. Following on from Paul’s article today, James Dunn has researched three prime candidates for a spot under your tree this year.
And in Buy, Sell, Hold – What the Brokers Say, for the week to Friday, December 6, FNArena registered 12 ratings upgrades from database brokers and only 3 downgrades.
CMC Markets’ chief market strategist, Michael McCarthy, explains why he likes Rio Tinto (RIO) but doesn’t like Caltex (CTX).
And my book Join the Rich Club is on sale for 20% off at the Switzer Store. Be sure to get your orders in by this Friday to receive them in time for Christmas.
Sincerely,
Peter Switzer
