The week of 26 April saw markets start off relatively strongly on the back of positive news on exit strategies and potential treatments. However, by Friday, the tide had turned due to weak corporate and economic data filtering through, while Trump sought to re-escalate tensions with China.
Read moreThe week of 20 April again saw mixed market sentiment. The negative news focused on plummeting oil prices, disappointing trial COVID-19 treatment results, US travel restrictions, poor corporate earnings and weak economic data.

Unfortunately, we believe markets are being overly optimistic. Economies will struggle to reopen fully anytime soon given the need for increased hospital capacity, widespread testing, improved patient treatment, and, ultimately, the delivery of a vaccine.

Looking up the term in a dictionary, it defines a state in which people retire as they have either reached a predetermined age or are not healthy enough to continue working. This definition naturally leads to a huge variance of scenarios, but this divergence is amplified further given we probably have our own personal timeline as well.

The week of 26 April saw markets start off relatively strongly on the back of positive news on exit strategies and potential treatments. However, by Friday, the tide had turned due to weak corporate and economic data filtering through, while Trump sought to re-escalate tensions with China.
Read moreThe week of 20 April again saw mixed market sentiment. The negative news focused on plummeting oil prices, disappointing trial COVID-19 treatment results, US travel restrictions, poor corporate earnings and weak economic data. The positive stories centred on further talk of exit strategies and a general slowdown in global case numbers.
Read moreDavid McFadzean was joined by Andrew Yeadon to talk through the main Q1 2020 news driving markets, portfolio positions and what we expect may take place in Q2 2020 and beyond.
Read moreThe week of 14 April saw mixed market sentiment as the impact of the COVID-19 weighed on corporate earnings results and economic data releases, while further talk of exit strategies and progress on a possible treatment provided some relief.
Read moreLast week – the week of 6 April – saw positive market sentiment and markets rise in value with the narrative focused on the slowing rates of growth in the number of new COVID-19 cases in parts of Europe and the US, enabling attention to shift to possible exit strategies from the lockdown and economic activity being kick-started. Unfortunately, we believe markets are being overly optimistic. Economies will struggle to reopen fully anytime soon given the need for increased hospital capacity, widespread testing, improved patient treatment, and, ultimately, the delivery of a vaccine.

Read moreWe operate in a really competitive industry. It’s one of the reasons why some people find it difficult to choose an investment manager – there’s such a huge choice! We believe there are five key points you need to consider when making your selection.
Read moreUnlike tossing a coin, portfolio management is not a game of chance and the risks are not usually 50/50. There is a huge range of potential investments to choose from and a professional wealth manager should be able to demonstrate consistent results over a long period with a greater success rate than 50%.
Read moreThe news flow on the COVID-19 coronavirus took a more negative tone over the weekend of 22/23 February, and we have started this week with a sizeable risk-off move.
Read moreThe week starting 9 March saw markets opening in disarray, with investors reacting negatively to news that the OPEC+ talks had broken down and the Saudis had sparked an oil price war with Russia over its refusal to cut production. That led to a 30% fall in the price of oil. The biggest impact will be in the energy sector, but it was also taken badly by the broader market.

In the history of man, retirement is a relatively new concept. Looking up the term in a dictionary, it defines a state in which people retire as they have either reached a predetermined age or are not healthy enough to continue working. This definition naturally leads to a huge variance of scenarios, but this divergence is amplified further given we probably have our own personal timeline as well.
