Dear %%first_name%%,
In his article today, Percy Allan stresses the well-known maxim that I totally support: Shares should be held for the long term. As Percy points out, many investors find they can’t emotionally cope with regular share market crashes or they’re at or near retirement so can’t risk negative or low returns over a 10-year period. In his article today, he examines 4 big picture observations for you to consider.
And with our market near its record high and interest rates at record lows, investors need to squeeze every ounce of return from their portfolio. One opportunity is out-of-favour Listed Investment Companies (LICs) that invest in small- and mid-cap stocks. Tony Featherstone has uncovered 3 undervalued LICs that could suit your requirements.
And in Buy, Sell, Hold – What the Brokers Say, Rudi Filapek-Vandyck reports that stockbrokers have issued 6 downgrades and 4 upgrades so far this week.
Finally, in Questions of the Week, Paul Rickard answers your queries on pink diamonds, super limits, a stock on a winning roll and “is this time different?”
