7th May 2019 – Market Watch, with Greg Fleming (Head of Investment Strategy):

Greg rounds up what was a good month for asset returns, particularly across growth asset classes. He also looks ahead at potential rate cuts here and across the Tasman and the direction of both currencies, as well as previewing the upcoming Federal election in Australia. With geopolitical noise back in the frame, particularly the trade stand-off between the US and China, global risk appetite may be more muted in the near term.
