Dear %%first_name%%,
It’s been a tough start to the year. Yesterday’s better-than-expected Chinese trade data buoyed the markets temporarily. However, falling oil prices and modest growth numbers from the US dragged down our markets. Investing can be tough and with a challenging outlook, Paul Rickard outlines stock additions and stock exits that we have made to our high income portfolio. This should better position the portfolio for the year ahead.
It’s also important to remember that there’s still good value to be found, despite these crazy markets. In the Switzer Super Report today, Tony Featherstone looks at buying prospects in today’s market sell off. Christine St Anne gives us a take on the key investment themes for 2016 and Tony Negline examines a number of traps when it comes to deceased estates and SMSFs!
In Questions of the Week, we take a look at Primary Healthcare, proposed super changes for this year and the NAB/CYBG demerger.
Sincerely,
Peter Switzer
