it’s a new financial year, but investors aren’t exactly getting a clean slate. despite some strong recent performances, like the s&p 500 hitting record highs and the australian market notching its best 12-month run since covid, global uncertainty is back in the spotlight.

in the words of global fund manager vaneck, the risks and “narrative for the next quarter is as clear as mud.”

cameron mccormack, senior portfolio manager at vaneck, talks to adam lang about vaneck’s latest viewpoint report, that suggests we’re entering a period where traditional safe bets, like us equities and bonds, no longer offer the same rewards, whereas opportunities are emerging in places that have long been overlooked.

this is general information only, and you should seek financial advice before making investment decisions.
