Global Perspective - What in the world is going on?
With the US market at all-time highs, the Hang Seng at 25-year lows, Japan, Germany and the UK in recession, and central banks defying calls for rate cuts, it’s little wonder many are asking – what on earth is going on? In this webinar portfolio managers Brian Arcese and JC Xue take an objective look at what is going on in the world and provide perspective on what this means for our own suite of global funds – unpacking performance, stock picking beyond the big tech, the principles behind our decisions, our safety-first approach and positioning going forward.
