Macro Investor this week

This week, Macro Investor Vol 1, No 10 explored the questions surfacing about the mining boom, the terms of trade and Chinese growth, and the growing risk that Australia is negatively re-rated by global markets and the Aussie dollar falls…We looked at a number of short and long trades around iron ore, the dollar and the shifting perceptions of Australia that are already deep in the money.We identified four companies that could do well from a weaker currency and examined why interest rates are still going to fall.

The Brisbane property market received special attention in a macro overview.

And we described how capital management is the key to making money in sideways markets that are likely to often prove individual “stock picks” wrong.

As you can see above, at the close of the week our model portfolios are travelling well, with both growth and income nicely weathering the volatility and trades speaking for themselves.
