Time in the market will always be more important than timing the market for simple investing. Nobody has a crystal ball, so it's better to invest what you can afford, when you can afford it rather than trying to pick the right time. Of course, having the help of a professional like a financial adviser makes it easier to manage your investments, making the best of time in the market with the guidance of a sound strategy.

Red is not always a time to panic, especially if you have time left in the market.
More than $1.1 trillion in value was wiped out of the markets in the last 24 hours. Sounds scary right? Context is important though. Right now the world is watching interest rates, watching China show weaker positions each day and watching the US to see which way the elections will swing. This type of behaviour is typical of a herd mentality, everyone watching each other and then panicking as soon as they think they will miss out on an opportunity to get in or out at the wrong time. What we are seeing here, is the markets reacting to uncertainty by reducing their positions in the market and likely switching to something less volatile until the indicators show safety as a more likely outcome. Volatility like this can either be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on your investment horizon. People that have longer left before they want to finish up investing, like superannuation investors may see this as a good chance to buy whilst everything is "on sale" and those with less time may see this as a time to cut their losses and exit too. Context is key. "The time to buy is when there's blood in the streets." - Baron Rothschild ** Please keep in mind this is not financial advice, the information in this post is general in nature and does not take into account any personal situation and you should always consult a licensed financial professional before you make any financial decisions you are unsure about.

Always proud to say our clients have been invested with such a stellar team. Always leading the way in their field and proving they are a mainstay of our portfolios.
That's a wrap on FY24. While artificial intelligence (AI) dominated the disruptive landscape and was a material contributor to return, there were a number of other important companies outside of AI giant Nvidia and the so-called Magnificent Seven. The largest contributors to the Fund were also the two largest holdings; Qualcomm and Taiwan Semiconductor Company (TSMC). The weights in these companies are a function of the investment team’s conviction in the business models, coupled with the comfort provided by the valuation. Holdings continue to be managed with an eye to the disruptive trends at play which have been the touchstone of investment performance over the ten years.

The wonders of AI means that we can provide an update to our clients via social media with a video rather than just a boring old newsletter (don't worry the boring looking newsletter is coming too for those that aren't a fan of the videos). The last 3 months have been a turbulent time in the markets, not just the last week of what we are being called "pre-recession" signals. We are not so pessimistic about the rest of the year and believe this is just a market correction to the unusually high growth we have been seeing across the markets of late. Remember everyone, investing is a marathon, not a sprint.
