Dear %%first_name%%,
You already know what I think about the market’s direction but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have a contingency plan in your self managed superannuation fund for those inevitable down years. Could your fund handle it? Today I tell you what you need to do.
Also in the Switzer Super Report today, Paul Rickard has the latest update on our SSR income and growth-oriented portfolios. The markets didn’t have a great month but our portfolios are still ahead.
James Dunn takes a look at whether or not there is still value in A-REITs and lists five picks, and Barrie Dunstan examines how trustees can survive a low-rate environment. In Super Stock Selectors, our list of likes includes MYOB and Credit Corp Group and in Buy, Sell, Hold – what the brokers say, AMP and Bank of Queensland get upgrades.
Sincerely,
Peter Switzer
