The Great Broadening Has Begun

Are you tired of hearing about the Magnificent Seven being the only investment game in town?

2026 Investment Markets Outlook: A Narrow but Navigable Pathway Upwards

As the new year begins, the global economy is on a surprisingly resilient track, although the margin for policy error by governments and central bankers is narrow. With global inflation sticky but moderating and high developed-market government debt, central banks face an ever-finer line in their efforts to cut rates without reigniting inflation or destabilising bond markets.

The Lessons 2025 Taught Us All

2025 has been a year when it has paid to learn from the markets. And there have been plenty of lessons flying at investors open to learning.

CIPRs Explained Simply: Building a Reliable Retirement Income Stream

For such a critical and long-dreamed of part of life, investing in retirement was woefully underserviced until recently. Superannuation funds focused heavily on the accumulation stage, relegating pension phase to a side thought. As Australians have come to live longer, and more of the baby boomers have retired – one of the largest generation cohorts, it’s become patently clear that retirement investment strategies need more nuance to manage the unique challenges of retirement.

Investing in Line with Your Values Without Sacrificing Returns

For a growing number of investors, what they own in their portfolios is as important as the returns they generate. Or, at least it’s a much more important consideration for them than it used to be. As a result, the various forms of responsible and value-driven investment have been transitioning from niche to mainstream for some time now. The Responsible Investment Association Australasia (RIAA) estimates that Australian responsible investment assets reached $1.6 trillion in 2023, and accounted for 41% of total managed funds assets.

Zero to Hero: Building a Complete Portfolio with just ETFs

For many investors, the closest they get to a complete and diversified investment portfolio is their superannuation. While there’s nothing wrong with that – it’s a good thing to have a nest egg for retirement – making sure the investments you hold outside of superannuation are diversified and suit your goals can go a long way towards generating better financial outcomes.

AI bubble or not: Resilient Tech Investing for your Portfolio

With the market trading near record highs, driven largely by big tech, valuations in parts of the market look expensive. Retail investors are still pouring into the technology sector, while some consultancies, like Mckinsey, are warning of the elevated costs required to fuel the sector’s continued growth. Some industry experts, including the Bank of England, are suggesting caution is warranted, while others, like Scion Asset Management’s Michael Burry, are pulling their money completely from the market.

A Concentration Problem: Why Australia’s Best Opportunities Now Lie Beyond the ASX 20

Australia’s stock market has a concentration problem: the top ten companies in the ASX 200 account for 48% of the entire index, with three of the top six names being banks and representing over a quarter of the index. Commonwealth Bank alone represents 11.3% of ASX 200. Think about that for a moment. One bank represents over a ninth of the index of Australia’s two hundred largest companies.
