Dear %%first_name%%,

Charlie is very much enamoured with Telstra after it reported its half-year results last week. Today, he has a good look over the numbers, and given interest rates are still very low, he’s upgraded his price forecast for the second time this year by 50 cents!

Also today in the Switzer Super Report, one of our newest subscribers has participated in our My SMSF article. He bought into the market – using the Switzer Super Report income portfolio as a guide – on 18 January and is now up 11.5%! I wish I had his timing!

We also have SEEK chief executive officer Andrew Bassat in CEO Spotlight and he answers some questions about the company’s key strategies, and Tony Negline explains why you have to be very careful when it comes to claiming tax deductions for super contributions.

Penny Pryor has some interesting news from the SMSF Association conference and Questions of the Week answer reader queries about investing offshore and capital gains tax.



Sincerely,

Peter Switzer
