Ord Minnett Podcast

Ord Minnett Head of Asset Allocation Malcolm Wood joins the podcast to discuss the outlook for the economy and investment markets. The conversation includes: • What the recent RBA rate rises mean for Australia; • Why an orderly, gradual normalisation of interest rates is still the likely scenario in Australia; • Why the Australian equity market looks well placed in the context of global valuations; • Why risks persist in the US economy and why the Fed faces a number of challenges; and • Mal’s preferred asset allocation, which includes caution on growth assets including underweight US equities, but overweight and Emerging Market equities. *** Disclosure: Ord Minnett Limited ABN 86 002 733 048 (Ord Minnett) holds AFS Licence Number 237121 and E.L. & C.
