Dear %%first_name%%,

Earnings season rolls on, the Reserve Bank Governor says the economy is OK, but not as good as he’d like, Budget battles continue, the Dow and S&P 500 went higher overnight and the Federal Reserve meets at Jackson Hole, Wyoming on Friday. Economics and business-wise, there’s nothing really significant happening, but these are all issues you should have your eye on.

In today’s Switzer Super Report, Charlie Aitken puts the headlights on Automotive Holdings Group, which he says appears to tick all the right boxes. Paul Rickard reveals just what we can expect from the latest hybrid issue from Commonwealth Bank, PERLS VII Capital Notes.

In this week’s Fundie’s Favourite, Don Williams from Platypus Asset Management explains why there’s a lot to like about CSL, and why they think it can get to $82 within the next 12 months. Plus, if you’re thinking of refreshing your pension in your super fund, don’t miss Tony Negline’s 11 steps. There’s also Buy, Sell, Hold – what the brokers say, and the Questions of the Week where we look at the Telstra offer as well as converting from an individual trustee to a corporate trustee.

Enjoy the read.



Sincerely,

Peter Switzer

This week I caught up with Paul Rickard for a look at A-REITS. The sector delivered great returns in 2013/14, but will these stocks continue to perform?
