Dear %%first_name%%,

One of the market’s biggest bears – Dr Doom – is having a change of heart. This is the guy credited with predicting the global financial crisis, so when he steps out in his Dr Boom cape, the pundits take note. I tell you what’s caused this newfound optimism in my column today.

Also in the Switzer Super Report, Charlie Aitken has a thing or two to say about our banks and why they’re not the investments they once were. Plus, we show you how to use sector tilts in financials and resources to beat the market index, and we outline a simple DIY super strategy that can boost your income.

Let’s hope Dr Boom is right – again!



Sincerely,

Peter Switzer
