Each Fund’s gearing ratio is actively monitored and adjusted to stay within this range. This means that the Fund’s geared exposure is anticipated to vary between ~143% and ~167% of the Fund’s Net Asset Value on a given day. Each Fund’s returns will not necessarily be in this range over periods longer than a day, primarily due to the effects of rebalancing to maintain the daily target geared exposure range and the compounding of investment returns over time, as well as the impact of fees and costs.\n\n**Gearing magnifies gains and losses and may not be a suitable strategy for all investors.** Geared investments involve significantly higher risk than non-geared investments. An investment in the Fund is high risk in nature.\n\nThere are risks associated with an investment in each Fund, including market risk, underlying ETF risk, gearing risk, rebalancing and compounding risk and lender risk, as well as (for GHHF) asset allocation risk and currency risk. Investment value can go up and down. An investment in each Fund should only be considered as a part of a broader portfolio, taking into account your particular circumstances, including your tolerance for risk. For more information on risks and other features of each Fund, please see the applicable Product Disclosure Statement and Target Market Determination at www.betashares.com.au.\n\n","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":false},{"id":625,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":null},{"id":341,"__component":"content.title","title":"GNDQ","style":"h3","emphasis":null,"link":[]},{"id":873,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"small","size_web":null},{"id":552,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Access

If you require more comprehensive advice, please speak with a financial adviser.\n\nThe advice is at a point in time.

In February, Taurus raised US$65 million in funding, led by Credit Suisse and Deutsche Bank. Tokenisation is the conversion of ownership rights in an asset into a digital token.\n\nIn an email, Taurus said: “Most Tier 1 financial institutions are entering a space and building capabilities to manage tokenised securities. They all want a blockchain-agnostic and token-agnostic infrastructure.”1  \n\n### Crypto returns to Hong Kong\n\nOn 1 June, Hong Kong started to allow retail trading in cryptocurrencies once again. However, a new licensing regime also took effect, which includes measures to protect retail investors. New rules, which are more stringent on crypto companies than in the past, require all applications for a trading platform or exchange licence to be filed using the Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) app. Failure to do so may result in fines and jail terms.\n\nCrypto is still banned in China, so operators will have to perform checks to ensure traders from China are not accepted. Keith Choi, interim head of intermediaries at the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), commented: “Operators have the responsibility to comply with the laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which it provides services.”2 With clear regulations in place, Hong Kong appears to be further ahead than many other jurisdictions, including the US.  \n\nCRYP company spotlight\n----------------------\n\n### Applied Digital (Nasdaq: APLD)\n\nApplied Digital, currently the sixth largest holding in the [Betashares Crypto Innovators ETF (CRYP)](https://www.betashares.com.au/fund/crypto-innovators-etf/), designs, develops and operates next-generation data centres across North America to provide digital infrastructure solutions to the rapidly-growing high performance computing (HPC) industry.\n\nIn mid-May, the company announced the launch of its Artificial Intelligence (AI) Cloud services that will provide high-performance computing power for AI applications, including large language model training, graphics rendering, and more.3\n\nOn 24 May, the company announced that it will be working with the Nasdaq listed firm, Supermicro, a leading provider of application-optimised total IT solutions, to deliver Applied Digital’s AI Cloud Service.4  \n\nOn-chain metrics\n----------------\n\n### Bitcoin (BTC): Realised Price \\[USD\\]\n\nRealised Price is the Realised Cap divided by the current supply. Realised Cap values each coin based on the price when it last moved, as opposed to its current value.\n\nIf the market price sits below the Realised Price, this metric can indicate that the bitcoin market is under a period of stress.\n\nAccording to data from Glassnode, as at 3 June 2023, Realised Price sits at US$20,202, well below the current price of US$27,247.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Screen-Shot-2023-06-04-at-12.13.35-pm.png)\n\nSource: Glassnode. **Past performance is not indicative of future performance.**\n\n### Bitcoin (BTC): Percent Supply in Profit\n\nThis metric shows the percentage of circulating supply in profit, i.e. the percentage of existing coins whose price at the time they last moved was lower than the current price.\n\nBased on data from Glassnode, as at 3 June, overall, investors in BTC are in a relatively healthy position with over 67% of supply sitting in a profitable position.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Screen-Shot-2023-06-04-at-12.15.09-pm.png)\n\nSource: Glassnode. **Past performance is not indicative of future performance.**\n\nAltcoin news\n------------\n\nOver the week to 4 June, one of the largest moves to the upside was from Lido DAO (LDO), with an increase of over 16%. The Lido DAO is a Decentralised Autonomous Organisation that decides on the key parameters of liquid staking protocols through the voting power of governance (LDO) tokens.\n\nAccording to the website Milkroad, some of the pros of using the Lido DAO are the ease of use of the platform, the liquidity of stETH, enabling it to be used while you stake ETH, and the fact that decentralisation is maximised with governance tokens available.5\n\nInvesting in crypto assets or companies servicing crypto-asset markets should be considered very high risk. Exposure to crypto assets involves substantially higher risk when compared to traditional investments due to their speculative nature and the very high volatility of crypto-asset markets.  \nInvesting in crypto assets or crypto-focused companies is not suitable for all investors and should only be considered by investors who (i) fully understand their features and risks or after consulting a professional financial adviser, and (ii) who have a very high tolerance for risk and the capacity to absorb a rapid loss of some or all of their investment. Any investment in crypto assets or crypto- focused companies should only be considered as a very small component of an investor’s overall portfolio.","style":null,"enable_image_popup":null},{"id":109,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":25,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":null,"items":[]},{"id":110,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":null}],"sidebar":[],"action":[],"hero":null}},{"id":9,"attributes":{"title":null,"presentation":"fullscreen_sheet","slug":"goal_income","createdAt":"2023-09-22T05:01:05.301Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-18T00:06:02.391Z","publishedAt":"2023-09-22T05:01:51.523Z","banner_style":"title_hidden","breadcrumb":null,"banner":{"data":{"id":582,"attributes":{"name":"Banner.png","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1440,"height":940,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_Banner_5f6c2d11d7.png","hash":"large_Banner_5f6c2d11d7","mime":"image/png","name":"large_Banner.png","path":null,"size":587.88,"width":1000,"height":653},"small":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_Banner_5f6c2d11d7.png","hash":"small_Banner_5f6c2d11d7","mime":"image/png","name":"small_Banner.png","path":null,"size":162.17,"width":500,"height":326},"medium":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_Banner_5f6c2d11d7.png","hash":"medium_Banner_5f6c2d11d7","mime":"image/png","name":"medium_Banner.png","path":null,"size":344.36,"width":750,"height":490},"thumbnail":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_Banner_5f6c2d11d7.png","hash":"thumbnail_Banner_5f6c2d11d7","mime":"image/png","name":"thumbnail_Banner.png","path":null,"size":47.24,"width":239,"height":156}},"hash":"Banner_5f6c2d11d7","ext":".png","mime":"image/png","size":221.1,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/Banner_5f6c2d11d7.png","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-17T03:59:27.570Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-17T03:59:27.570Z"}}},"banner_dark":{"data":{"id":583,"attributes":{"name":"banner_dark.png","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1440,"height":940,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_banner_dark_01c92eea5d.png","hash":"large_banner_dark_01c92eea5d","mime":"image/png","name":"large_banner_dark.png","path":null,"size":585.4,"width":1000,"height":653},"small":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_banner_dark_01c92eea5d.png","hash":"small_banner_dark_01c92eea5d","mime":"image/png","name":"small_banner_dark.png","path":null,"size":161.37,"width":500,"height":326},"medium":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_banner_dark_01c92eea5d.png","hash":"medium_banner_dark_01c92eea5d","mime":"image/png","name":"medium_banner_dark.png","path":null,"size":344.61,"width":750,"height":490},"thumbnail":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_banner_dark_01c92eea5d.png","hash":"thumbnail_banner_dark_01c92eea5d","mime":"image/png","name":"thumbnail_banner_dark.png","path":null,"size":44.94,"width":239,"height":156}},"hash":"banner_dark_01c92eea5d","ext":".png","mime":"image/png","size":207.89,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/banner_dark_01c92eea5d.png","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-17T03:59:48.760Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-17T03:59:48.760Z"}}},"layout":[{"id":45,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"small","size_web":null},{"id":23,"__component":"content.title","title":"Earn income from investments","style":"h1","emphasis":"high","link":[]},{"id":215,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"small","size_web":null},{"id":13,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Is income generation a high priority for you as part of your investing strategy?

Investment value can go up and down. An investment in the Fund should only be considered as a part of a broader portfolio, taking into account your particular circumstances, including your tolerance for risk. For more information on risks and other features of the Fund, please see the Product Disclosure Statement and Target Market Determination, both available on this [website](https://www.betashares.com.au/fund/private-credit-fund/).\n\nProjected 12-month distribution yield is based on:\n\n1. The historical interest rate margin on the underlying fund’s loan portfolio (Interest Rate Margin), being the difference between the 12-month historical distribution yield of the underlying fund and the 12-month return for the US floating rate benchmark applicable to the underlying fund’s loan portfolio (the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Total Return Index published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York); and\n2. Adding the Interest Rate Margin to the projected SOFR reference rate (based on current futures market pricing) applicable to the underlying fund’s loan portfolio over the projection period.\nThe projection is net of Betashares fund’s management fee and costs and the FX hedging impact based on forward exchange rates.\nThe projected yield assumes: (1) the composition of the underlying fund’s loan portfolio and the Interest Rate Margin remain the same over the projection period; (2) there are no defaults in respect of the underlying fund’s loan portfolio; and (3) the historical distribution policy/profile for the underlying fund is maintained over the projection period.","style":"small","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2477,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":null}],"sidebar":[],"action":[],"hero":null}},{"id":74,"attributes":{"title":null,"presentation":"fullscreen_sheet","slug":"invest_beginner","createdAt":"2025-03-25T05:24:17.209Z","updatedAt":"2025-07-14T06:50:57.948Z","publishedAt":"2025-03-25T05:24:35.737Z","banner_style":null,"breadcrumb":"Get Started Investing","banner":{"data":null},"banner_dark":{"data":null},"layout":[{"id":1527,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"huge","size_web":null},{"id":8,"__component":"blocks.action-cards","items":[{"id":14,"title":"Get to know Betashares Direct","subtitle":"Learn how to use the app","text_color":"#fff","text_color_dark":null,"background_color":"#22283A","background_color_dark":null,"uri":"view://get_to_know_direct","action":"Get started","action_style":null,"image":{"data":{"id":2113,"attributes":{"name":"shapies.png","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1192,"height":1096,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_shapies_b422d1fc2b.png","hash":"large_shapies_b422d1fc2b","mime":"image/png","name":"large_shapies.png","path":null,"size":718.71,"width":1000,"height":919},"small":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_shapies_b422d1fc2b.png","hash":"small_shapies_b422d1fc2b","mime":"image/png","name":"small_shapies.png","path":null,"size":194.25,"width":500,"height":460},"medium":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_shapies_b422d1fc2b.png","hash":"medium_shapies_b422d1fc2b","mime":"image/png","name":"medium_shapies.png","path":null,"size":421.02,"width":750,"height":690},"thumbnail":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_shapies_b422d1fc2b.png","hash":"thumbnail_shapies_b422d1fc2b","mime":"image/png","name":"thumbnail_shapies.png","path":null,"size":26.84,"width":170,"height":156}},"hash":"shapies_b422d1fc2b","ext":".png","mime":"image/png","size":631.94,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/shapies_b422d1fc2b.png","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2025-05-14T03:12:25.371Z","updatedAt":"2025-05-14T03:12:25.371Z"}}}},{"id":15,"title":"Why invest in ETFs?","subtitle":"Learn about the benefits of ETF investing","text_color":"#202021","text_color_dark":null,"background_color":"#fff","background_color_dark":null,"uri":"view://why_etfs","action":"Learn more","action_style":null,"image":{"data":{"id":2204,"attributes":{"name":"nobackground.png","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1136,"height":1348,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_nobackground_3f6c3d6fca.png","hash":"large_nobackground_3f6c3d6fca","mime":"image/png","name":"large_nobackground.png","path":null,"size":214.06,"width":843,"height":1000},"small":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_nobackground_3f6c3d6fca.png","hash":"small_nobackground_3f6c3d6fca","mime":"image/png","name":"small_nobackground.png","path":null,"size":69.26,"width":421,"height":500},"medium":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_nobackground_3f6c3d6fca.png","hash":"medium_nobackground_3f6c3d6fca","mime":"image/png","name":"medium_nobackground.png","path":null,"size":134.64,"width":632,"height":750},"thumbnail":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_nobackground_3f6c3d6fca.png","hash":"thumbnail_nobackground_3f6c3d6fca","mime":"image/png","name":"thumbnail_nobackground.png","path":null,"size":10.79,"width":131,"height":156}},"hash":"nobackground_3f6c3d6fca","ext":".png","mime":"image/png","size":270.22,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/nobackground_3f6c3d6fca.png","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2025-06-03T00:00:30.962Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-03T00:00:30.962Z"}}}}]},{"id":1493,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":473,"__component":"content.title","title":"Consider starting off simple with an all-in one diversified exposure","style":"h3","emphasis":null,"link":[]},{"id":1528,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"tiny","size_web":null},{"id":1110,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"No matter how you choose to invest, ETFs make it easy to get instant diversification in just one trade.

past 12 months have felt a little like surfing a choppy break – smooth runs but plenty of unpredictable swells.\n\nBut in spite of all the headlines and risks, markets seemed to have shrugged it off. The ASX 200 finished FY25 up 10.2% while the S&P 500 recorded a 15%+ gain. Two rate cuts from the RBA wouldn’t have hurt either.\n\nNow, as a new financial year dawns, we’ve asked the Betashares investment team to share their best ideas for the next six months. Their ideas span four major asset classes and two secular themes – and are all available on Betashares Direct.\n\nWhile the past doesn’t predict the future, these ideas might just inspire your next investment.\n\n_Unless otherwise stated, all fund returns are shown as at 30 June 2025, net of fees. Past performance is not indicative of future returns._\n\nAustralian equities\n-------------------\n\nIf the ASX 200’s most recent 12 months could be summed up in three letters, chances are it would be “CBA”.\n\nOver the last 12 months to 30 June 2025, Bloomberg data revealed that CBA alone accounted for 33% of the S&P/ASX 200’s total return¹.\n\nAlthough calling an end to Australia’s big banks’ rally has been a fool’s game thus far, investors would be wise to continue to diversify their portfolios away from the big banks.\n\nOne way to achieve this is Betashares Australian Quality ETF (ASX: AQLT). AQLT aims to track an index that holds 40 high-quality companies. AQLT has returned 12.39% p.a. since its inception on 4 April 2022 and has outperformed the S&P/ASX 200 over that same period despite holding relatively fewer CBA shares.\n\nAt the other end of the market, there’s evidence to suggest Australian small caps may now be primed for a reversal after a tough run. They’re trading at a steep discount to large caps, and improving economic conditions and corporate fundamentals could support a turnaround.\n\nOne way to invest in this space is Betahares Australian Small Companies Select ETF (ASX: SMLL). SMLL aims to track an index consisting of 50-100 high-quality small cap companies. Since its inception on 7 April 2017, SMLL has delivered a total return of 6.52%

past 12 months have felt a little like surfing a choppy break – smooth runs but plenty of unpredictable swells.\n\nBut in spite of all the headlines and risks, markets seemed to have shrugged it off. The ASX 200 finished FY25 up 10.2% while the S&P 500 recorded a 15%+ gain. Two rate cuts from the RBA wouldn’t have hurt either.\n\nNow, as a new financial year dawns, we’ve asked the Betashares investment team to share their best ideas for the next six months. Their ideas span four major asset classes and two secular themes – and are all available on Betashares Direct.\n\nWhile the past doesn’t predict the future, these ideas might just inspire your next investment.\n\n_Unless otherwise stated, all fund returns are shown as at 30 June 2025, net of fees. Past performance is not indicative of future returns._\n\nAustralian equities\n-------------------\n\nIf the ASX 200’s most recent 12 months could be summed up in three letters, chances are it would be “CBA”.\n\nOver the last 12 months to 30 June 2025, Bloomberg data revealed that CBA alone accounted for 33% of the S&P/ASX 200’s total return¹.\n\nAlthough calling an end to Australia’s big banks’ rally has been a fool’s game thus far, investors would be wise to continue to diversify their portfolios away from the big banks.\n\nOne way to achieve this is Betashares Australian Quality ETF (ASX: AQLT). AQLT aims to track an index that holds 40 high-quality companies. AQLT has returned 12.39% p.a. since its inception on 4 April 2022 and has outperformed the S&P/ASX 200 over that same period despite holding relatively fewer CBA shares.\n\nAt the other end of the market, there’s evidence to suggest Australian small caps may now be primed for a reversal after a tough run. They’re trading at a steep discount to large caps, and improving economic conditions and corporate fundamentals could support a turnaround.\n\nOne way to invest in this space is Betahares Australian Small Companies Select ETF (ASX: SMLL). SMLL aims to track an index consisting of 50-100 high-quality small cap companies. Since its inception on 7 April 2017, SMLL has delivered a total return of 6.52%

equities\n-----------\n\nDespite the policy disruptions and geopolitical tensions, US companies continue to report robust earnings.\n\nMost notably, the Magnificent Seven tech stocks collectively added around US$25 billion in nominal earnings for the 12 months to Q1 2025². That’s a mammoth number especially when you consider how large these companies already are. An easy way to access these companies is through the NDQ Nasdaq 100 ETF  and its currency hedged version, **Betashares Nasdaq 100 Currency Hedged ETF** (ASX: HNDQ).³ Currency hedging helps protect your investment returns from the ups and downs of foreign exchange rates.\n\nNDQ provides Australian investors with exposure to some of the US’ largest non-financial companies including the ‘Magnificent 7’. Over the past 10 years, it has returned 20.1% p.a. on average.\n\nOutside the Magnificent Seven, a broadening of US corporate earnings and performance is also occurring.

Government deserves recognition for attempting to tackle some long known structural challenges in this budget, like reform to NDIS. But for investors, some of the tax changes carry real implications worth understanding, particularly around capital gains.\n\nFrom a market perspective, the budget does not appear to greatly add to near-term inflation risks, which increases the chances of further RBA rate hikes. That said, the budget is hardly super restrictive either, so it does not lessen the burden on the RBA to tighten policy further if need be.

High commodity prices, helped by the current war in Iran, along with ongoing bracket creep, are helping bring in revenues.\n\nFor investors, this matters because it tells us the improved budget position is largely driven by external factors rather than disciplined spending.

Net new policy decisions add $6.5b to the deficit next financial year, though this is more than offset by parameter revisions, which \nreduce the deficit by $9.3b.\n\nAs you'd expect given the lift in oil prices and Reserve Bank policy tightening, the Government's near-term growth forecasts have been marginally reduced. GDP growth in the 2026-27 financial year has been scaled back from 2.25% to 1.75%, though this is still a bit higher than the RBA's forecast of 1.3%. \n\nHeadline CPI inflation is expected to peak at 5% in the June quarter of this year, before easing to 2.5% by June 2027. The unemployment rate is still expected to edge higher to 4.5% over the coming year.\n\nFor investors, slower growth and a softening labour market generally point to a more cautious backdrop for cyclical exposures, while a peaking inflation profile may eventually support fixed income.","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3527,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":null},{"id":886,"__component":"content.title","title":"The capital gains tax changes: the biggest issue for investors","style":"h3","emphasis":null,"link":[]},{"id":3528,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":2454,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"The changes to capital gains tax apply to all forms of investment, not just property. The result is that Australia will have one of the highest taxes on capital gains in the world. The tax take from the sale of entrepreneurial companies, and any associated employee share ownership schemes, will effectively double from 25% to almost 50%.\n\nFor everyday investors, the practical implications are worth thinking through:\nHigher capital gains tax reduces after-tax returns on growth-focused investments held in personal names, which may shift how investors think about asset location (for example, the role of superannuation versus personal portfolios). It also raises the bar for any investment to deliver real wealth creation after tax.\n\nFor younger Australians trying to build a deposit through investing, the change reduces the incentive to take on growth assets. It also weakens the case for investing in existing properties as a wealth-building strategy, which the Government is openly trying to discourage. The flow-on risk, though, is that fewer investors in the rental market could push rents higher, making it harder for the same younger Australians the policy is trying to help.\n\nFor business owners and employees in companies with share schemes, the doubling of effective tax on a future sale is a significant change that sits awkwardly alongside the Treasurer's stated desire to boost productivity and competition.\n","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3531,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":2455,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Betashares Capital Limited (ACN 139 566 868 / AFS Licence 341181) (“Betashares”) is the issuer of this information.

GDP growth in the 2026-27 financial year has been scaled back from 2.25% to 1.75%, though this is still a bit higher than the RBA's forecast of 1.3%. \n\nHeadline CPI inflation is expected to peak at 5% in the June quarter of this year, before easing to 2.5% by June 2027.

The result is that Australia will have one of the highest taxes on capital gains in the world. The tax take from the sale of entrepreneurial companies, and any associated employee share ownership schemes, will effectively double from 25% to almost 50%.\n\nFor everyday investors, the practical implications are worth thinking through:\nHigher capital gains tax reduces after-tax returns on growth-focused investments held in personal names, which may shift how investors think about asset location (for example, the role of superannuation versus personal portfolios). It also raises the bar for any investment to deliver real wealth creation after tax.\n\nFor younger Australians trying to build a deposit through investing, the change reduces the incentive to take on growth assets. It also weakens the case for investing in existing properties as a wealth-building strategy, which the Government is openly trying to discourage. The flow-on risk, though, is that fewer investors in the rental market could push rents higher, making it harder for the same younger Australians the policy is trying to help.\n\nFor business owners and employees in companies with share schemes, the doubling of effective tax on a future sale is a significant change that sits awkwardly alongside the Treasurer's stated desire to boost productivity and competition.\n","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3540,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":2460,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Betashares Capital Limited (ACN 139 566 868 / AFS Licence 341181) (“Betashares”) is the issuer of this information.

It has raised interest rates by 0.25% to 3.85%, after having last cut them only six months ago.\n\nThe reasons are clear.\n\nThe RBA noted that “growth in private demand has strengthened substantially more than expected” in recent months. Associated with this, “inflationary pressures picked up materially in the second half of 2025.”\n\nWhile the RBA concedes that part of the pick-up in inflation likely reflects temporary factors, it judges that solid demand in the face of limited spare economic capacity is also playing an important role. Accordingly, it has judged a need to raise rates to slow demand and ease the capacity pressures on inflation.\n\nIs one rate rise enough? Only time will tell. Notably, there’s little in the RBA’s statement signalling it feels one will be enough. Indeed, even with its economic forecasts incorporating the market expectation of one further rate hike this year, the RBA still expects near-term inflation pressures to remain firm, with another 0.9% increase in quarterly trimmed mean inflation expected in the March quarter of this year.\n\nUnderlying inflation is only expected to ease a little in the June quarter, resulting in an annual trimmed mean inflation rate of 3.7% at that time.\n\nMuch will depend on the degree to which temporary versus demand-led factors account for the recent pick-up in inflation. The lift in new dwelling and consumer durable prices, for example, could reflect a one-off restoration in profit margins following an decrease during the earlier period of weak demand.  Travel and hospitality costs, moreover, could have been temporarily boosted by one-off special events such as the the Ashes cricket test series. \n\nIf it turns out that temporary factors have played a greater role than the RBA currently assesses, inflation may drop by more than the RBA expects in coming months, and this may well be a case of “one and done.” This is currently my base case expectation, namely a greater slowing in underlying inflation in the March quarter, removing the pressure on the RBA to raises rates in May. \n\nHowever, at this stage, it’s hard to avoid the conclusion that the RBA has in mind at least one more rate hike - consistent with current market pricing - because even under this scenario inflation is expected to remain uncomfortably high for the foreseeable future.\n","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2899,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":729,"__component":"content.title","title":"Why this matters for your cash","style":"h3","emphasis":null,"link":[]},{"id":2901,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":2123,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"When rates rise, banks usually pass increases on quickly to borrowers (like mortgage holders).\nBut for savers, it’s a different story.\n\nHistorically, banks have been slow to lift deposit rates, often paying less than the RBA cash rate -  even when you lock your money away in a term deposit.\n\nSince 2022, the average 6-month term deposit rate has paid around 0.6% p.a. less than the cash rate.

2025_\n\n**China has** banned the buying of any iron ore from BHP. For weeks, China's state-owned iron ore buyer China Mineral Resources Group (CMRG) has been negotiating a long-term deal with BHP. As talks broke down CMRG banned steel mills from buying BHP iron ore. BHP was down 2% as a result. (Bloomberg)\n\n**Australia's home** prices saw their fastest monthly gain since October 2023 according to Cotality's Home Value Index (HVI). Nationally, prices were up 0.8% for the month, and 2.2% for the quarter. And this is all before the expansion of the 5% deposit Home Guarantee Scheme kicks off today. (Capital Brief)\n\n**Australian lithium** stocks had a bad day after the Chinese government confirmed reports about lithium reserves in the mining hub of Yichun from Chinese lithium producers CATL and Gotion High-Tech. Pilbara Minerals (-7%), Liontown Resources (-10%), IGO (-4%) and Mineral Resources (-5%) were all down. (Capital Brief)\n\n**Spotify founder** Daniel Ek has announced he will step down as CEO of the audio streaming platform and transition to the role of Executive Chairman. Two Spotify executives, Gustav Soderstrom and Alex Norstrom, will take over as co-CEOs while Ek turns his focus to the \"long arc\" of the company. (BBC)\n\n**The US** Government has shut down with the majority of America's 900,000 federal employees sent home. Republicans needed 7 votes from Democrats to pass their budget through the Senate but would not agree to Democrat demands to reverse cuts to healthcare funding. Before the government shut down, US President Trump warned a shutdown would lead to \"irreversible\" cuts to federal jobs and programs. (Reuters)\n\n**One government** program that won't be affect by the shutdown is tariff collection. The US Department of Homeland Security have unveiled a plan to continue collecting tariffs even as non-essential federal workers are sent home. (Reuters)\n\n**The AI** infrastructure boom continues with CoreWeave agreeing to supply Meta with US$14.2 billion worth of computing power to help the social media giant build advanced AI models. This is a big win for CoreWeave who currently make 71% of its revenue from Microsoft. (Bloomberg)\n\n**Britain is** banning junk food ads on television and online before 9pm. The restrictions apply to food designated as high in saturated fat, salt and sugar, which The Economist estimates makes up 20% of purchases in British supermarkets and 60% of current food and drink ads. The ban officially goes into force in January, but food companies have agreed to comply earlier.

US \nTreasury yields also fell as investors moved into safer assets. The selloff reflects\nconcern that rising trade tensions could weigh heavily on global growth and \ncorporate earnings.\n\n## Who’s affected?\n\nAustralia will face a 10% tariff – lower than the 20% some had feared. Canada \nand Mexico avoided broad new measures, with most goods (excluding cars and \nmetals) still tariff-free. In contrast, China and the European Union were hit \nhard. China now faces a combined tariff rate of 54%, while EU imports will \nattract a 20% tariff.\n\nMarkets may take some comfort in the hope that this is the final wave of tariff \nannouncements, bringing an end to months of uncertainty.\n\n## What could happen next?\n\nRetaliation from China and the EU looks likely, raising the risk of a tit-for-tat \ntrade war. This could further strain global supply chains and business \nconfidence. Importantly, this latest round of tariffs delivers a much larger shock \nthan those introduced during Trump’s first term.\n\nBack then, only China was targeted with 10% tariffs, lifting the average US \ntariff rate from 1.5% to 3%. With the new measures, the effective tariff rate \ncould rise to 23% – a substantial increase.\n\n## Economic impact\n\nImports make up around 10% of US consumption. If most of the tariff increases \nare passed through to prices, consumers could face an effective 2% cost shock. \nThat could weigh on household spending and corporate profits. A rough \nestimate suggests US GDP growth may slow by 1% over the next year – roughly \nhalving what it might have otherwise been.\n\n## Could it backfire?\n\nThere is a chance the tariffs lead to better trade deals if used as leverage to \nreduce global trade barriers. In that case, the long-term growth impact could be\npositive – but only if benefits are shared broadly, not just with the US.\nAustralia could lose out if its trading partners offer concessions exclusively to \nthe US, making Australian exports less competitive. It’s also unclear whether \nthe White House intends to negotiate or simply lock in higher tariffs and \ncapture the estimated US$650 billion in added tax revenue (about 2% of GDP).\n\n## Tips for investors during volatile times\n\nMarket corrections are normal, however understandably can raise internal \nquestions for investors. But keeping in perspective that markets can be volatile \nand maintaining a long-term plan with your financial goals firmly in mind can \nhelp you to make rational investment decisions.\n\nA well-diversified portfolio should also allow you to weather the storm and come\nout the other side.","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1419,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":1034,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"This article contains general information only and does not take into account \nany person’s objectives, financial situation or needs.

Millions of Australians have built generational wealth through residential property.\n\nIf you’ve bought property, either to live in or as an investment, the chances are you funded your purchase partly through a mortgage. Purely from an investment perspective, if the property increases in value over time by more than what you borrowed from the bank, you are better off. Gearing into property allows the equity in your house to increase at a rate potentially much faster than the value of the property itself.\n\nThis is the essence of gearing.\n\nWhat is gearing?\n----------------\n\nGearing, sometimes referred to as leverage, involves borrowing money to increase the size of an investment and potentially increase (or ‘amplify’) both gains and losses.\n\nIt can be used across most asset classes and takes several forms, from investment loans and structured products, to options, futures and geared funds.\n\nPut simply, gearing lets you invest more than you currently have. If the assets you invest in rise in value by more than the cost of borrowing, your overall return is higher than if you’d just used your own money. But the reverse is also true: if the investment falls, your losses are magnified too. Gearing is like turning up the volume on your investment outcomes – both the good and the bad.\n\nIn the context of geared ETFs, this borrowing happens inside the fund itself. You invest your money in the ETF, and the fund manager adds borrowed money to give you greater exposure to the underlying assets, i.e. share portfolio.\n\nGearing with fewer barriers\n---------------------------\n\nFor investors comfortable with the risks, geared ETFs offer a way to increase market exposure and potentially accelerate long-term wealth creation, without the costs and complexities of traditional margin lending.\n\nBetashares’ Wealth Builder ETFs provide cost-effective, internally geared exposure to the Australian and global sharemarkets. The funds handle all borrowing on your behalf, meaning you do not need to take out a margin loan. The investor doesn’t have to worry about all the loan applications, credit checks or the risk of margin calls.\n\nAnother significant benefit is that Betashares can access funding for the Wealth Builder ETFs at institutional interest rates. These rates are significantly lower than the interest rates typically available to individual investors seeking to borrow on their own account, meaning individual investors have access to a reduced cost of borrowing.\n\n### The Betashares Wealth Builder range currently comprises three different funds:\n\n*   Betashares Wealth Builder Diversified All Growth Geared (30-40% LVR) Complex ETF (ASX: GHHF)\n*   Betashares Wealth Builder Australia 200 Geared (30-40% LVR) Complex ETF (ASX: G200)\n*   Betashares Wealth Builder Nasdaq 100 Geared (30-40% LVR) Complex ETF (ASX: GNDQ)\n\nAll three Wealth Builder ETFs target loan-to-valuation ratios (LVR) of between 30 to 40%. The LVR is also known as the gearing ratio. These funds are considered “moderately geared” and can be accessed via Betashares Direct.","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1808,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":179,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":372,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":173,"attributes":{"symbol":"GHHF","name":"Wealth

do they work?\n-----------------\n\nThe amount borrowed is actively managed to keep the fund’s gearing ratio within a target range of 30-40% on a given day. This means that for every $100 you invest, you’ll typically gain exposure to between $143 and $167 worth of assets on a given day. This ratio allows you to amplify your investment potential while keeping gearing at a moderate level.\n\nIt’s important to note that over periods longer than a day, each fund’s geared exposure may not necessarily be in this range due to the following reasons:\n\n*   Rebalancing activity to stay within the geared exposure range\n*   The compounding of investment returns over time\n*   The impact of funding costs, management fees and transaction costs\n\nAs a result, investors should review their investment regularly to ensure it continues to align with their goals and risk tolerance.\n\nA practical example of how gearing can affect investment performance\n\nWhen markets are rising or falling, gearing amplifies your returns. Let’s take a look at an example to see how this works.\n\nTwo illustrative examples are shown below, both assuming an LVR of 40%, meaning 40% of the total money invested is borrowed money. In this simple example, neither borrowing costs nor any income from the investments are taken into account. It’s also important to note that this example does not reflect actual fund performance and that actual results may differ materially.\n\nIn Scenario 1, where the sharemarket has risen by 10%, gearing has resulted in a 16.7% return on the investor’s initial contribution.\n\n![A screenshot of a phone\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/a-screenshot-of-a-phone-ai-generated-content-may.png)\n\nHowever, in Scenario 2 where the sharemarket has fallen by 10%, the effects of gearing have resulted in a 16.7% loss.\n\n![A screenshot of a graph\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/a-screenshot-of-a-graph-ai-generated-content-may-1.png)\n\nIn the chart below, we use simulated historical performance to compare the performance of a moderately geared portfolio of Australian equities to a corresponding ungeared strategy over the period from September 2010 to June 2025 (almost 15 years).\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Total-return-comparison-1.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. Betashares. This information is provided for illustrative purposes only and is not representative of actual fund performance. Actual outcomes may differ materially. The information is not a recommendation or offer to make any investment or to adopt any particular investment strategy. **Simulated past performance is not indicative of future performance of any fund or strategy**.\n\nThis chart is for illustrative purposes only and is based on assumptions set out in the ‘Important information’ section at the end of this article. It does not represent actual fund performance.\n\nWhat are the risks?\n-------------------\n\nGearing magnifies both gains and losses and carries higher risk than non-geared investments. In a rising market, you may outperform an equivalent ungeared investment; in a falling market, the reverse is true. Investing in geared ETFs also comes with greater volatility.\n\nFor these reasons gearing may not be a suitable strategy for all investors.\n\nGeared ETFs also tend to be more expensive compared with their ungeared counterparts. This may be important for cost-conscious investors.\n\nIn the right hands, gearing can be investing’s best kept secret\n---------------------------------------------------------------\n\nFor the investor with a long-term outlook, geared ETFs can be a powerful tool, offering a way to potentially accelerate wealth creation.\n\nGeared ETFs should always be used as part of a broader, well-considered strategy. For those investors who can tolerate the risks, gearing could be a valuable step toward reaching your financial goals.\n\n","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1803,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1411,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Betashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

today’s market, investment opportunities that can deliver both a solid income and a strong total return performance are hard to come by.\n\nThis is particularly the case given the RBA is continuing to cut interest rates, and, in the case of investors looking for fixed income, the Australian bank hybrid market being wound down¹.\n\nYet Australian investment grade corporate bonds have delivered just that.\n\nAustralian investment grade corporate bonds have been in what many would call a ‘perfect’ environment for the last two years. That’s because credit spreads have steadily narrowed over the period, thanks in large part to an improved macroeconomic outlook and strong corporate fundamentals².\n\nBut as we’ll show you, tight credit spreads are not the only reason this asset class is making waves among investors hungry for income.\n\n**What’s been driving strong returns in Australian credit?**\n------------------------------------------------------------\n\nTo understand why credit has been performing well, we first need to understand credit spreads.\n\nCredit spreads refer to the difference in yield between two bonds of similar maturity but different quality. The spread is the additional yield an investor earns for taking on the additional risks that come with investing in a lower-rated bond.\n\nSpreads are typically measured against a risk-free benchmark – for instance, a government bond or a comparable swap rate. For investors in fixed income (even those who access the asset through ETFs), spreads can have a significant impact on your returns.\n\nA compression (or decline) in credit spreads implies a more bullish sentiment among investors and may also indicate that the creditworthiness of borrowers (i.e. the companies issuing the loans) has improved. Since 2023, Australian dollar-denominated corporate bond credit spreads have compressed further than their US dollar-denominated counterparts.\n\nBeyond the topic of spreads, it’s important to note that the macroeconomic backdrop in Australia is relatively strong.\n\nThe RBA is, as of writing, able to cut interest rates with a backdrop of falling inflation and steady unemployment levels. Investment-grade corporations are also in good financial health with default rates sitting relatively low, according to figures compiled by major ratings agency Fitch Ratings³.\n\nFinally, offshore investors (particularly from Asia) have been showing strong appetite for corporate bonds. Provided this demand continues, then spreads and valuations are likely to follow suit.\n\n**Why is this outperformance likely to continue?**\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nAs the chart below shows, Australian dollar-denominated investment grade corporate bond spreads have compressed significantly, but they actually remain above their historical lows.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/AUDCorpBond-PUBLISH-1.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. As at 30-May-2025. ​**Past performance is not an indicator of future performance**. \n\nSecondly, in the current environment, the RBA is trying to bring interest rates down to a neutral level. That is, a level that generates economic growth but doesn’t cause a spike in inflation. If it can do this successfully, credit spreads could grind even lower, adding to the outperformance we’ve already seen.\n\nThird, provided there isn’t a massive default (bankruptcy) wave among large Australian corporates, confidence in those borrowers should remain. Even if spreads don’t compress much further, the quality of Australian corporations means that investors may still flock to these assets.\n\nAs hybrids wind down, could investors consider high quality credit?\n-------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nInvestors who have been using hybrids as an option to generate excess income continue to look for a place to park their cash as the hybrids market sunsets.\n\nAs of 25 June 2025, the bulk of the remaining bank hybrid market pays between 7-8% in running yield⁴. However, with bank hybrids due to roll off as a result of regulatory changes, investors are increasingly exploring more stable, income-generating options – such as investment grade corporate bonds.\n\nOne avenue for investing in these investment grade corporate bonds is through [Betashares Interest Rate Hedged Australian Investment Grade Bond ETF (ASX: HCRD)](https://direct.betashares.com.au/asset/AU/HCRD)\n\nHCRD provides investors with exposure to 50 local investment grade corporate bonds through an index⁵. Then, bond futures contracts are sold with the aim of substantially reducing the interest rate risk that investors may face.\n\nT Government bond yields are typically the largest contributor to the volatility of fixed rate corporate bonds. The hedging strategy essentially aims to mitigate this effect. While it may sound complicated, its results have shown that the strategy has worked so far – returning 9.24% p.a. from its inception in November 2022 to 30 June 2025⁶.\n\nBut best of all, HCRD pays a monthly distribution. This makes it a potentially attractive idea for investors who want a regular income option when their hybrid holdings are called.\n\n**Choose your own duration**\n----------------------------\n\nAll of this is to say that there is still potentially income to be made in Australian investment grade corporate bonds. And given they are now accessible in an ETF on the Betashares Direct platform, there is no reason for income-hungry investors to ignore what’s on offer in this asset class.\n\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1806,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1417,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Future results are inherently uncertain.

Markets are hoping for a relatively quick resolution, with energy prices and risk sentiment likely to stabilise if tensions ease.\n\nWhile the near-term path is uncertain, history shows that markets have navigated geopolitical shocks, from regional conflicts to global crises. Over time, longer term drivers such as earnings growth and global economic expansion have tended to reassert themselves.\n\nPeriods like this can feel unsettling for investors. Geopolitical events are inherently unpredictable and extremely difficult to time, and short-term market movements can shift quickly on headlines. Attempting to time the market carries risk and missing even a small number of strong recovery days can impact long term returns.\n\nDiversification is designed specifically for moments like this. Different assets can respond in different ways, helping well-diversified portfolios navigate unexpected shocks without needing to predict exactly how events will unfold.","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3272,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":null},{"id":831,"__component":"content.title","title":"Core portfolio

fears. \n------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table1.png)\n\nGlobal week in review: AI fears persist\n---------------------------------------\n\nThere was little in the way of major global economic news last week, with equities generally on the defensive after a nervous bounce higher over the previous week.\n\nUS economic data was generally upbeat – a welcome bounce was seen in US consumer confidence in February (albeit from still low levels) along with a higher-than-expected producer price report. Fed rate cut expectations barely flinched. \n\nMarkets generally remained fixated on the AI fallout. **Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA)**‘s earnings result was much better-than-expected once again, although it was not good enough to avoid a 5% post-result share price decline. Investors fretted over the sustainability of the surge in AI-related data centre/chip demand. In related news, Meta has agreed to buy US$60 billion of rival chip maker AMD’s offerings, whilst also taking a 10% ownership stake in the company. This has been seen by the market so far as a general vote of confidence in the AI boom. \n\nOutside of the US, the Japanese Government’s appointment of two academic ‘monetary doves’ to the Bank of Japan board raised some concerns over whether the BOJ will remain diligent in containing inflation. The Japanese 10-year bond yield briefly dipped on the news, although it ended the week unchanged at 2.12%. The market still expects two further rate hikes this year, with the next one in July. \n\nOf course, the big news of the week was the US missile strike on Iran over the weekend, which in early Monday trading triggered a not entirely surprising fall in equity prices and bond yields.\n\nAt the time of writing, S&P 500 futures were off 1% while the S&P/ASX 200 was down 0.5%. Oil and gold prices have lifted 13% and 1.6% respectively, while the US dollar has also caught a safe-haven bid at the expense of the Australian dollar, which has dropped to 70.64 US cents.\n\nGlobal week ahead: Iran & payrolls   \n-------------------------------------\n\nThe coming week is likely to be dominated by the Iran conflict – will it be quickly contained, with Iran agreeing to a deal, or will it spread with Iran digging in and launching more devastating counter-attacks than the ones seen to date?\n\nJudging by events in Venezuela, Trump may not insist on regime change per se, given how difficult it is to engineer without placing boots on the ground – especially if Iran quickly rolls over and agrees to a new nuclear deal. Iran’s counter attacks so far have been relatively limited, suggesting it may only be able to put up limited resistance, which may encourage the US to continue pressing its advantage.\n\nOne near-term risk is a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, where 20% of global oil supply flows through. Iran has reportedly declared the trade route “[closed](https://www.afr.com/world/middle-east/oil-and-lng-suppliers-suspend-shipping-through-strait-of-hormuz-20260301-p5o6co)“, although effective enforcement remains unclear – especially with the US targeting Iranian warships. Even without a formal blockade, however, oil-related transport costs are likely to rise given shipping companies may re-route to alternative, more expensive routes and freight insurance costs are likely to surge.\n\nLikely of secondary importance this week will be Friday’s US payrolls report, with a modest 58k gain in jobs during February expected, which should keep the unemployment rate steady at 4.3%. \n\nGlobal equity trends: the great rotation continues\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nThe MSCI All-Country World Equity Index rose 0.3% last week, modestly outperforming the US market – led by solid gains in Japan and emerging markets. The NASDAQ-100 slipped 0.2%, slightly less than the S&P 500.  \n\nThat said, the great rotation remains in place. Since the end of October 2025, we’ve seen underperformance of US/growth/technology, replaced by strength in Japan, emerging markets and small caps. There are also tentative signs of a bottoming out in the underperformance of the Australian market. Despite the US tech underperformance, global quality (among factors) is also holding up reasonably well.  \n\nAs we saw in 2022, if a global energy shock plays out, there may be a further rotation from interest rate-sensitive cyclical and technology sectors into more value-orientated defensives and resources.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table3-1.png) \n\nAustralian week in review: still firm employment\n------------------------------------------------\n\nDespite local interest rate fears, Australian shares enjoyed another decent bounce last week, with the S&P/ASX 200 further moving north of the 9,000 level. Defensive companies and resources generally fared best, with materials and consumer staples returning 7.4% and 5.0% respectively. That said, the beaten-down technology sector bounced for the second week in a row.   \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table3.png)\n\nThe main news last week was another firm monthly consumer price index (CPI) report, with annual trimmed mean inflation edging up to 3.4% from 3.3%. As I [argued](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/january-2026-cpi/) last week, while the monthly figures need to be taken with a grain of salt, the apparent broad-based firmness in prices does not bode well for a benign Q1 CPI report in late April. \n\nOther economic data was also generally firm:\n\nTotal Q4 construction spending was weaker than expected, although this reflected a winding down in several public infrastructure projects offset by ongoing strength in private residential and non-residential building.\n\nMeanwhile, private Q4 capital spending was firmer-than-expected – strength in non-mining construction activity was partly offset by a pullback in data centre related spending on machinery and equipment. \n\nAll up, housing and business investment appears to have held up well in Q4.       \n\nAustralian week ahead: Q4 GDP \n------------------------------\n\nHot off the press this morning, national capital city house prices rose a further 0.7% in February, although the most strength is being seen in the cheaper cities outside of Sydney and Melbourne. The RBA’s rate hike last month is likely to see a broader cooling in prices in the months ahead.  \n\nThe local highlight this week will be Wednesday’s Q4 GDP report. The market anticipates a solid 0.7% gain following the 0.4% Q3 gain, with signs of ongoing broad-based strength in private demand (consumer spending, housing and business investment). \n\nGiven the RBA’s intense focus on capacity constraints, further evidence of solid Q4 domestic demand (which rose 1% in Q3) will add to the pressure for another rate hike – although **I still see the next move in May (after the Q1 CPI report) rather than this month.**\n\nWith regards to the Iran conflict, implications for the RBA would be fairly mixed – higher global energy prices would be a negative for consumer spending and sentiment, while also placing upward pressure on headline inflation (fuel accounts for 3% of the CPI). **On balance, however, heightened geopolitical tensions – if they persisted and escalated – would tend to make the RBA less likely to hike rates amidst such uncertainty**.\n\nAustralian equity trends\n------------------------\n\nResources continue to go from strength to strength in the local market, with financials experiencing a range bound relative performance. We’ve seen a tentative bounce in the (likely oversold) technology and small cap space in recent weeks, likely reflecting bargain hunting among stocks judged to have been unfairly sold down by AI disruption fears.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table4.png)\n\nHave a great week!\n------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3252,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2246,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

don’t go up in a straight line (wouldn’t that be nice!).\n\nIn reality, and as investors are experiencing in the current environment, volatility goes hand-in-hand with investing and periods of negative returns are not uncommon. However, over the longer term, sharemarkets have tended to trend upwards.\n\n### **_Historical returns of the Australian sharemarket: S&P/ASX 200 Total Return Index_**\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Chart_Web_250409.png)\n\n##### Source: Morningstar Direct, Betashares. Returns from 02/04/2001 to 09/04/2025. Past performance is not indicative of future performance.  \n\nThere are a multitude of factors that can cause periods of negative returns, whether this be a collapse in the financial system (the Global Financial Crisis), a global pandemic (COVID), or the prices of goods and services rising faster than anticipated (inflation), causing central banks to raise interest rates.\n\n## What to do during market volatility\n\n### **Questions to ask yourself**\n\nWhen investors see the value of their portfolio declining, it is not unnatural for them to panic.\n\nThe key is to try to remain rational and maintain a disciplined investment approach. The opening phrase of Rudyard Kipling’s _If_ comes to mind – “If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs …”.\n\nTo help you maintain a sense of level-headedness, you can begin by asking yourself two questions:\n\n1.  Is this pullback ‘normal’ like many we have seen throughout history?\n2.  Do my financial objectives remain the same?\n\nIf the answers to both these questions are ’Yes’, the pullback shouldn’t warrant wholesale changes in your investment approach. Sticking to smaller adjustments, if any, may be more appropriate.\n\n### **Consider your options**\n\nWhen considering what to do with your portfolio, there are three main options:\n\n1.  Sell and aim to avoid further losses\n2.  Buy the dips, seeing an opportunity to buy at a lower price\n3.  Do nothing and ride the wave\n\nWithout hindsight, there is no certainty as to which of these is best, however the first two do require you to time the market, which requires either skill or luck, and is almost impossible to do consistently. While everyone’s goals and circumstances are different, history suggests that taking a longer-term view may be the best course of action.\n\n## Tips for investing for the long-term\n\n### **Diversification is your best form of risk management**\n\nMarkets typically recover, individual stocks may not. As such, investors need to appropriately [diversify their portfolios](/category/portfolio-diversification/).\n\nWhile a single ETF can provide access to hundreds of securities in one trade, it is also important to hold a blend of asset classes, regions and sectors as different exposures can benefit or suffer in different environments.\n\n### **Know your risk tolerance and timeframe**\n\nThere is generally a trade-off between risk and return. Typically, the lower your risk, the less you should expect in return.\n\n### _**Risk/return profiles of different asset classes**_\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/ETF-_Graphs_221205_Investment-101-Risk-vs-Return_800px-e1722899074371.png)\n\n##### Source: Betashares. Provided for illustrative purposes only. Not a recommendation to make any investment or adopt any investment strategy.\n\nKnowing your risk tolerance is key to constructing your portfolio and should determine your mix of asset classes. Typically, the longer your time horizon, the more risk you can take as you have more time to weather periods of negative returns as illustrated above.\n\n### **Contribute periodically**\n\nWhile it is extremely difficult to time markets, contributing on a regular, periodic basis ([dollar cost averaging](/education/dollar-cost-averaging-taking-time-out-of-the-investment-equation/)) can have great benefits. By sticking to a schedule, you will buy dips as well as buying at highs, assisting in reducing your overall volatility. It will also help enhance the compounding effect.\n\n## Conclusion\n\nMarket corrections are normal, however understandably can raise internal questions for investors. But keeping in perspective that markets can be volatile and maintaining a long-term plan with your financial goals firmly in mind can help you to make rational investment decisions.\n\nA well-diversified portfolio should also allow you to weather the storm and come out the other side.\n\n* * *\n\n##### This article contains general information only and does not take into account any person’s objectives, financial situation or needs.

But if history has taught us anything, it's that market corrections – periods when share prices drop significantly – are not only common but are often temporary.\n\nETF investors with a long-term view can think of downturns or pullbacks as potential buying opportunities. Here's why.\n\n## A brief history of market corrections\n\nOver the past 50 years, the ASX has seen several significant drops:\n\n### **1987 crash (Black Monday)**\n\nOn 20 October 1987, the ASX 200 fell 25% in one day – one of the biggest one-day drops in its history[¹](#1). Despite the drama, the market reached its low within a month and recovered to pre-crash levels in around 2.5 years.\n\n### **Dot-com crash (2000-2002)**\n\nDriven by speculative tech stocks, the ASX 200 declined about 22%, bottoming out over two years. It took around three years for the losses during the dot-com crash to be erased.\n\n### **Global Financial Crisis (2008-2009)**\n\nThe ASX 200 dropped 54% over approximately 17 months. But investors who held firm saw markets fully recover within about five years.\n\nSimilarly, global markets have historically reflected the same resilience:\n\n### **COVID-19 crash (2020)**\n\nIn the US, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell roughly 34% and 30% respectively between 19 February high to the 23 March bottom[²](#2). However, both bounced back to pre-crash highs within about six months, driven by rapid economic intervention.\n\n### **European Debt Crisis (2011-2012)**\n\nThe Euro Stoxx 50 declined around 35% over two years due to a slew of sovereign debt concerns. Yet, within three years, markets fully recovered.\n\nDespite the panic surrounding market crashes, the long-term picture tells a different story:\n\n* Australian equities have delivered an 8.33% total return over the past 25 years³.\n* Global equities have returned 8.60% annually since 1987⁴.\n\nIn other words, markets recover, and disciplined investors are rewarded over time.\n\n## Why are investors nervous now?\n\nSince President Trump declared 2 April as Liberation Day and announced the most sweeping tariffs in nearly a century, global sharemarkets have experienced significant volatility. \n\nOur Investment Strategy & Research team have provided further insights into what could happen next and how investors may think about different asset classes following Liberation Day [here](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/liberation-day-fallout/).\n\n## What triggers market corrections?\n\nMarket corrections are usually triggered by a combination of economic, geopolitical and financial factors. Common causes include rising interest rates, economic recessions, unexpected geopolitical events or simply excessive optimism leading to speculative bubbles. Understanding that these triggers are often temporary can help ease anxiety and encourage discipline in your investment strategy.\n\n## Some common mistakes investors make\n\nDuring market downturns, investors commonly make emotional decisions that can negatively impact their long-term returns:\n\n### **Panic selling**\n\nSelling out of fear locks in losses and prevents investors from benefiting when markets recover.\n\n### **Trying to time the market**\n\nPredicting short-term movements is nearly impossible. History shows that investors who stay invested tend to achieve better long-term results.\n\n### **Drastic asset allocation shifts**\n\nMaking sudden changes – such as shifting large amounts from one asset class to another – can derail a long-term strategy and reduce future returns.\n\n### **Halting regular investments**\n\nMany investors consistently add money during market upswings but hesitate when prices drop. However, adding to your investments during downturns may help you to improve your long-term returns when markets rebound.\n\n### **Holding too much cash**\n\nWhile having a cash buffer is important, keeping too much on the sidelines may mean missing out on potential market recoveries and long-term growth.\n\nMaking any of these mistakes, or a combination of them, can significantly hurt long-term returns. Investors often panic during downturns and chase markets after they rebound, missing some of the best days of performance in between. We cover this topic in more detail [here.](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/investment-performance-during-accumulation-years/)\n\n## The power of diversification\n\nETFs may help you avoid these mistakes by providing diversified exposure that removes the temptation to pick individual winners or losers.\n\nIn addition, by spreading investments across various markets, sectors and regions, you may avoid the worst impacts of any single downturn. Diversified portfolios, especially those with global exposure, are historically better positioned to absorb shocks and recover more quickly.\n\n## Turning downturns into opportunities\n\nETFs provide a practical way to navigate market corrections. When markets fall, adding steadily to your investments (known as [dollar-cost averaging](https://www.betashares.com.au/education/dollar-cost-averaging-taking-time-out-of-the-investment-equation/)) allows you to gain exposure to more of your preferred investment for less. For numerous historical reasons, those who stay invested during downturns tend to see stronger long-term returns[³](#3). Note that here, we are talking about staying the course in your long-term investment strategy during a downturn and not about dip-buying. The latter strategy is both very difficult to execute and could cost you a small fortune in fees.\n\nAs Warren Buffett famously put it: \"The stock market is a device to transfer money from the 'impatient' to the 'patient'.\"\n\n## Stay calm, stay invested\n\nThe next time markets wobble, remember that market corrections aren't disasters. They're part of the journey. By sticking to your investment strategy, especially with ETFs that provide broad, diversified exposure, you're positioned well for long-term growth.\n\nStay calm, stay invested and stay diversified. If history is any guide, patience and discipline will be rewarded.\n\n---\n\n## References:\n\n##### 1. [Is the ASX 200 about to crash?

If Iran agrees to a new nuclear deal or limits its retaliation, tensions could ease relatively quickly. Judging by events in Venezuela, the US may not push aggressively for regime change, particularly given the complexity and risks of achieving that outcome without ground forces. \n\nHowever, if Iran intensifies its response, the conflict could widen. A sustained or credible blockade of the Strait of Hormuz would pose the biggest near-term risk, likely keeping oil prices elevated and adding to global inflationary pressures.\n\nIf a global energy shock develops, markets could see a further rotation. Interest rate-sensitive cyclical sectors and technology stocks may come under additional pressure, while value-oriented defensives and resource stocks could outperform. Higher energy prices would also complicate the outlook for central banks.\n\nIn short, geopolitical risk has reasserted itself as the dominant market driver. The direction of energy prices and the trajectory of the conflict will determine whether this remains a short-lived volatility event or evolves into a more sustained shift in market leadership and macro expectations.","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3254,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":null},{"id":826,"__component":"content.title","title":"Themes

fears. \n------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table1.png)\n\nGlobal week in review: AI fears persist\n---------------------------------------\n\nThere was little in the way of major global economic news last week, with equities generally on the defensive after a nervous bounce higher over the previous week.\n\nUS economic data was generally upbeat – a welcome bounce was seen in US consumer confidence in February (albeit from still low levels) along with a higher-than-expected producer price report. Fed rate cut expectations barely flinched. \n\nMarkets generally remained fixated on the AI fallout. **Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA)**‘s earnings result was much better-than-expected once again, although it was not good enough to avoid a 5% post-result share price decline. Investors fretted over the sustainability of the surge in AI-related data centre/chip demand. In related news, Meta has agreed to buy US$60 billion of rival chip maker AMD’s offerings, whilst also taking a 10% ownership stake in the company. This has been seen by the market so far as a general vote of confidence in the AI boom. \n\nOutside of the US, the Japanese Government’s appointment of two academic ‘monetary doves’ to the Bank of Japan board raised some concerns over whether the BOJ will remain diligent in containing inflation. The Japanese 10-year bond yield briefly dipped on the news, although it ended the week unchanged at 2.12%. The market still expects two further rate hikes this year, with the next one in July. \n\nOf course, the big news of the week was the US missile strike on Iran over the weekend, which in early Monday trading triggered a not entirely surprising fall in equity prices and bond yields.\n\nAt the time of writing, S&P 500 futures were off 1% while the S&P/ASX 200 was down 0.5%. Oil and gold prices have lifted 13% and 1.6% respectively, while the US dollar has also caught a safe-haven bid at the expense of the Australian dollar, which has dropped to 70.64 US cents.\n\nGlobal week ahead: Iran & payrolls   \n-------------------------------------\n\nThe coming week is likely to be dominated by the Iran conflict – will it be quickly contained, with Iran agreeing to a deal, or will it spread with Iran digging in and launching more devastating counter-attacks than the ones seen to date?\n\nJudging by events in Venezuela, Trump may not insist on regime change per se, given how difficult it is to engineer without placing boots on the ground – especially if Iran quickly rolls over and agrees to a new nuclear deal. Iran’s counter attacks so far have been relatively limited, suggesting it may only be able to put up limited resistance, which may encourage the US to continue pressing its advantage.\n\nOne near-term risk is a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, where 20% of global oil supply flows through. Iran has reportedly declared the trade route “[closed](https://www.afr.com/world/middle-east/oil-and-lng-suppliers-suspend-shipping-through-strait-of-hormuz-20260301-p5o6co)“, although effective enforcement remains unclear – especially with the US targeting Iranian warships. Even without a formal blockade, however, oil-related transport costs are likely to rise given shipping companies may re-route to alternative, more expensive routes and freight insurance costs are likely to surge.\n\nLikely of secondary importance this week will be Friday’s US payrolls report, with a modest 58k gain in jobs during February expected, which should keep the unemployment rate steady at 4.3%. \n\nGlobal equity trends: the great rotation continues\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nThe MSCI All-Country World Equity Index rose 0.3% last week, modestly outperforming the US market – led by solid gains in Japan and emerging markets. The NASDAQ-100 slipped 0.2%, slightly less than the S&P 500.  \n\nThat said, the great rotation remains in place. Since the end of October 2025, we’ve seen underperformance of US/growth/technology, replaced by strength in Japan, emerging markets and small caps. There are also tentative signs of a bottoming out in the underperformance of the Australian market. Despite the US tech underperformance, global quality (among factors) is also holding up reasonably well.  \n\nAs we saw in 2022, if a global energy shock plays out, there may be a further rotation from interest rate-sensitive cyclical and technology sectors into more value-orientated defensives and resources.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table3-1.png) \n\nAustralian week in review: still firm employment\n------------------------------------------------\n\nDespite local interest rate fears, Australian shares enjoyed another decent bounce last week, with the S&P/ASX 200 further moving north of the 9,000 level. Defensive companies and resources generally fared best, with materials and consumer staples returning 7.4% and 5.0% respectively. That said, the beaten-down technology sector bounced for the second week in a row.   \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table3.png)\n\nThe main news last week was another firm monthly consumer price index (CPI) report, with annual trimmed mean inflation edging up to 3.4% from 3.3%. As I [argued](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/january-2026-cpi/) last week, while the monthly figures need to be taken with a grain of salt, the apparent broad-based firmness in prices does not bode well for a benign Q1 CPI report in late April. \n\nOther economic data was also generally firm:\n\nTotal Q4 construction spending was weaker than expected, although this reflected a winding down in several public infrastructure projects offset by ongoing strength in private residential and non-residential building.\n\nMeanwhile, private Q4 capital spending was firmer-than-expected – strength in non-mining construction activity was partly offset by a pullback in data centre related spending on machinery and equipment. \n\nAll up, housing and business investment appears to have held up well in Q4.       \n\nAustralian week ahead: Q4 GDP \n------------------------------\n\nHot off the press this morning, national capital city house prices rose a further 0.7% in February, although the most strength is being seen in the cheaper cities outside of Sydney and Melbourne. The RBA’s rate hike last month is likely to see a broader cooling in prices in the months ahead.  \n\nThe local highlight this week will be Wednesday’s Q4 GDP report. The market anticipates a solid 0.7% gain following the 0.4% Q3 gain, with signs of ongoing broad-based strength in private demand (consumer spending, housing and business investment). \n\nGiven the RBA’s intense focus on capacity constraints, further evidence of solid Q4 domestic demand (which rose 1% in Q3) will add to the pressure for another rate hike – although **I still see the next move in May (after the Q1 CPI report) rather than this month.**\n\nWith regards to the Iran conflict, implications for the RBA would be fairly mixed – higher global energy prices would be a negative for consumer spending and sentiment, while also placing upward pressure on headline inflation (fuel accounts for 3% of the CPI). **On balance, however, heightened geopolitical tensions – if they persisted and escalated – would tend to make the RBA less likely to hike rates amidst such uncertainty**.\n\nAustralian equity trends\n------------------------\n\nResources continue to go from strength to strength in the local market, with financials experiencing a range bound relative performance. We’ve seen a tentative bounce in the (likely oversold) technology and small cap space in recent weeks, likely reflecting bargain hunting among stocks judged to have been unfairly sold down by AI disruption fears.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table4.png)\n\nHave a great week!\n------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3252,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2246,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

don’t go up in a straight line (wouldn’t that be nice!).\n\nIn reality, and as investors are experiencing in the current environment, volatility goes hand-in-hand with investing and periods of negative returns are not uncommon. However, over the longer term, sharemarkets have tended to trend upwards.\n\n### **_Historical returns of the Australian sharemarket: S&P/ASX 200 Total Return Index_**\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Chart_Web_250409.png)\n\n##### Source: Morningstar Direct, Betashares. Returns from 02/04/2001 to 09/04/2025. Past performance is not indicative of future performance.  \n\nThere are a multitude of factors that can cause periods of negative returns, whether this be a collapse in the financial system (the Global Financial Crisis), a global pandemic (COVID), or the prices of goods and services rising faster than anticipated (inflation), causing central banks to raise interest rates.\n\n## What to do during market volatility\n\n### **Questions to ask yourself**\n\nWhen investors see the value of their portfolio declining, it is not unnatural for them to panic.\n\nThe key is to try to remain rational and maintain a disciplined investment approach. The opening phrase of Rudyard Kipling’s _If_ comes to mind – “If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs …”.\n\nTo help you maintain a sense of level-headedness, you can begin by asking yourself two questions:\n\n1.  Is this pullback ‘normal’ like many we have seen throughout history?\n2.  Do my financial objectives remain the same?\n\nIf the answers to both these questions are ’Yes’, the pullback shouldn’t warrant wholesale changes in your investment approach. Sticking to smaller adjustments, if any, may be more appropriate.\n\n### **Consider your options**\n\nWhen considering what to do with your portfolio, there are three main options:\n\n1.  Sell and aim to avoid further losses\n2.  Buy the dips, seeing an opportunity to buy at a lower price\n3.  Do nothing and ride the wave\n\nWithout hindsight, there is no certainty as to which of these is best, however the first two do require you to time the market, which requires either skill or luck, and is almost impossible to do consistently. While everyone’s goals and circumstances are different, history suggests that taking a longer-term view may be the best course of action.\n\n## Tips for investing for the long-term\n\n### **Diversification is your best form of risk management**\n\nMarkets typically recover, individual stocks may not. As such, investors need to appropriately [diversify their portfolios](/category/portfolio-diversification/).\n\nWhile a single ETF can provide access to hundreds of securities in one trade, it is also important to hold a blend of asset classes, regions and sectors as different exposures can benefit or suffer in different environments.\n\n### **Know your risk tolerance and timeframe**\n\nThere is generally a trade-off between risk and return. Typically, the lower your risk, the less you should expect in return.\n\n### _**Risk/return profiles of different asset classes**_\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/ETF-_Graphs_221205_Investment-101-Risk-vs-Return_800px-e1722899074371.png)\n\n##### Source: Betashares. Provided for illustrative purposes only. Not a recommendation to make any investment or adopt any investment strategy.\n\nKnowing your risk tolerance is key to constructing your portfolio and should determine your mix of asset classes. Typically, the longer your time horizon, the more risk you can take as you have more time to weather periods of negative returns as illustrated above.\n\n### **Contribute periodically**\n\nWhile it is extremely difficult to time markets, contributing on a regular, periodic basis ([dollar cost averaging](/education/dollar-cost-averaging-taking-time-out-of-the-investment-equation/)) can have great benefits. By sticking to a schedule, you will buy dips as well as buying at highs, assisting in reducing your overall volatility. It will also help enhance the compounding effect.\n\n## Conclusion\n\nMarket corrections are normal, however understandably can raise internal questions for investors. But keeping in perspective that markets can be volatile and maintaining a long-term plan with your financial goals firmly in mind can help you to make rational investment decisions.\n\nA well-diversified portfolio should also allow you to weather the storm and come out the other side.\n\n* * *\n\n##### This article contains general information only and does not take into account any person’s objectives, financial situation or needs.

But if history has taught us anything, it's that market corrections – periods when share prices drop significantly – are not only common but are often temporary.\n\nETF investors with a long-term view can think of downturns or pullbacks as potential buying opportunities. Here's why.\n\n## A brief history of market corrections\n\nOver the past 50 years, the ASX has seen several significant drops:\n\n### **1987 crash (Black Monday)**\n\nOn 20 October 1987, the ASX 200 fell 25% in one day – one of the biggest one-day drops in its history[¹](#1). Despite the drama, the market reached its low within a month and recovered to pre-crash levels in around 2.5 years.\n\n### **Dot-com crash (2000-2002)**\n\nDriven by speculative tech stocks, the ASX 200 declined about 22%, bottoming out over two years. It took around three years for the losses during the dot-com crash to be erased.\n\n### **Global Financial Crisis (2008-2009)**\n\nThe ASX 200 dropped 54% over approximately 17 months. But investors who held firm saw markets fully recover within about five years.\n\nSimilarly, global markets have historically reflected the same resilience:\n\n### **COVID-19 crash (2020)**\n\nIn the US, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell roughly 34% and 30% respectively between 19 February high to the 23 March bottom[²](#2). However, both bounced back to pre-crash highs within about six months, driven by rapid economic intervention.\n\n### **European Debt Crisis (2011-2012)**\n\nThe Euro Stoxx 50 declined around 35% over two years due to a slew of sovereign debt concerns. Yet, within three years, markets fully recovered.\n\nDespite the panic surrounding market crashes, the long-term picture tells a different story:\n\n* Australian equities have delivered an 8.33% total return over the past 25 years³.\n* Global equities have returned 8.60% annually since 1987⁴.\n\nIn other words, markets recover, and disciplined investors are rewarded over time.\n\n## Why are investors nervous now?\n\nSince President Trump declared 2 April as Liberation Day and announced the most sweeping tariffs in nearly a century, global sharemarkets have experienced significant volatility. \n\nOur Investment Strategy & Research team have provided further insights into what could happen next and how investors may think about different asset classes following Liberation Day [here](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/liberation-day-fallout/).\n\n## What triggers market corrections?\n\nMarket corrections are usually triggered by a combination of economic, geopolitical and financial factors. Common causes include rising interest rates, economic recessions, unexpected geopolitical events or simply excessive optimism leading to speculative bubbles. Understanding that these triggers are often temporary can help ease anxiety and encourage discipline in your investment strategy.\n\n## Some common mistakes investors make\n\nDuring market downturns, investors commonly make emotional decisions that can negatively impact their long-term returns:\n\n### **Panic selling**\n\nSelling out of fear locks in losses and prevents investors from benefiting when markets recover.\n\n### **Trying to time the market**\n\nPredicting short-term movements is nearly impossible. History shows that investors who stay invested tend to achieve better long-term results.\n\n### **Drastic asset allocation shifts**\n\nMaking sudden changes – such as shifting large amounts from one asset class to another – can derail a long-term strategy and reduce future returns.\n\n### **Halting regular investments**\n\nMany investors consistently add money during market upswings but hesitate when prices drop. However, adding to your investments during downturns may help you to improve your long-term returns when markets rebound.\n\n### **Holding too much cash**\n\nWhile having a cash buffer is important, keeping too much on the sidelines may mean missing out on potential market recoveries and long-term growth.\n\nMaking any of these mistakes, or a combination of them, can significantly hurt long-term returns. Investors often panic during downturns and chase markets after they rebound, missing some of the best days of performance in between. We cover this topic in more detail [here.](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/investment-performance-during-accumulation-years/)\n\n## The power of diversification\n\nETFs may help you avoid these mistakes by providing diversified exposure that removes the temptation to pick individual winners or losers.\n\nIn addition, by spreading investments across various markets, sectors and regions, you may avoid the worst impacts of any single downturn. Diversified portfolios, especially those with global exposure, are historically better positioned to absorb shocks and recover more quickly.\n\n## Turning downturns into opportunities\n\nETFs provide a practical way to navigate market corrections. When markets fall, adding steadily to your investments (known as [dollar-cost averaging](https://www.betashares.com.au/education/dollar-cost-averaging-taking-time-out-of-the-investment-equation/)) allows you to gain exposure to more of your preferred investment for less. For numerous historical reasons, those who stay invested during downturns tend to see stronger long-term returns[³](#3). Note that here, we are talking about staying the course in your long-term investment strategy during a downturn and not about dip-buying. The latter strategy is both very difficult to execute and could cost you a small fortune in fees.\n\nAs Warren Buffett famously put it: \"The stock market is a device to transfer money from the 'impatient' to the 'patient'.\"\n\n## Stay calm, stay invested\n\nThe next time markets wobble, remember that market corrections aren't disasters. They're part of the journey. By sticking to your investment strategy, especially with ETFs that provide broad, diversified exposure, you're positioned well for long-term growth.\n\nStay calm, stay invested and stay diversified. If history is any guide, patience and discipline will be rewarded.\n\n---\n\n## References:\n\n##### 1. [Is the ASX 200 about to crash?

The top performers were St Barbara and South 32, both returning over 40 this quarter.\n**• HCRD (+1.6%):** The strongest performer within the defensive allocation this quarter, HCRD holds a basket of Australian corporate bonds and is designed to help protect against interest rate changes.\n\n<u>**What’s behind the numbers?**</u>\n**• AI sector challenges:** Some US tech stocks, especially those in AI and software, struggled as investors questioned the enormous AI spend and the disruption that may result in certain sectors. This uncertainty led to a shift toward companies perceived to be relatively cheaper such as those outside the US and in mining and energy.\n**•\tBond market variations: **US bond rates dipped over the quarter, while Australian rates climbed as inflation stayed elevated and the RBA hinted more rate rises could be on the table, making local bonds potentially more appealing for income.\n**•\tCurrency impacts:** With US interest rates expected to fall and Australian rates rising, the Australian dollar strengthened. This reduced the value of overseas investments for Australian investors unless they were hedged against currency changes.\n\n<u>**Notable performers in your portfolio’s underlying shares:**</u>\n**▲ High performing: Samsung Electronics**\nSamsung's share price jumped due to a recovery in its semiconductor business, driven by rising demand for AI memory chips and progress on next-generation chip production, boosting investor confidence.\n**▼ Low performing: Microsoft**\nInvestors have been cautious about Microsoft's spending on AI and cloud services, which put pressure on cash flow.

question is whether the conflict is contained or becomes more disruptive. Markets are hoping for a relatively quick resolution, with energy prices and risk sentiment likely to stabilise if tensions ease.\n\nWhile the near-term path is uncertain, history shows that markets have navigated geopolitical shocks, from regional conflicts to global crises. Over time, longer term drivers such as earnings growth and global economic expansion have tended to reassert themselves.\n\nPeriods like this can feel unsettling for investors. Geopolitical events are inherently unpredictable and extremely difficult to time, and short-term market movements can shift quickly on headlines. Attempting to time the market carries risk and missing even a small number of strong recovery days can impact long term returns.\n\nDiversification is designed specifically for moments like this. Different assets can respond in different ways, helping well-diversified portfolios navigate unexpected shocks without needing to predict exactly how events will

fears. \n------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table1.png)\n\nGlobal week in review: AI fears persist\n---------------------------------------\n\nThere was little in the way of major global economic news last week, with equities generally on the defensive after a nervous bounce higher over the previous week.\n\nUS economic data was generally upbeat – a welcome bounce was seen in US consumer confidence in February (albeit from still low levels) along with a higher-than-expected producer price report. Fed rate cut expectations barely flinched. \n\nMarkets generally remained fixated on the AI fallout. **Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA)**‘s earnings result was much better-than-expected once again, although it was not good enough to avoid a 5% post-result share price decline. Investors fretted over the sustainability of the surge in AI-related data centre/chip demand. In related news, Meta has agreed to buy US$60 billion of rival chip maker AMD’s offerings, whilst also taking a 10% ownership stake in the company. This has been seen by the market so far as a general vote of confidence in the AI boom. \n\nOutside of the US, the Japanese Government’s appointment of two academic ‘monetary doves’ to the Bank of Japan board raised some concerns over whether the BOJ will remain diligent in containing inflation. The Japanese 10-year bond yield briefly dipped on the news, although it ended the week unchanged at 2.12%. The market still expects two further rate hikes this year, with the next one in July. \n\nOf course, the big news of the week was the US missile strike on Iran over the weekend, which in early Monday trading triggered a not entirely surprising fall in equity prices and bond yields.\n\nAt the time of writing, S&P 500 futures were off 1% while the S&P/ASX 200 was down 0.5%. Oil and gold prices have lifted 13% and 1.6% respectively, while the US dollar has also caught a safe-haven bid at the expense of the Australian dollar, which has dropped to 70.64 US cents.\n\nGlobal week ahead: Iran & payrolls   \n-------------------------------------\n\nThe coming week is likely to be dominated by the Iran conflict – will it be quickly contained, with Iran agreeing to a deal, or will it spread with Iran digging in and launching more devastating counter-attacks than the ones seen to date?\n\nJudging by events in Venezuela, Trump may not insist on regime change per se, given how difficult it is to engineer without placing boots on the ground – especially if Iran quickly rolls over and agrees to a new nuclear deal. Iran’s counter attacks so far have been relatively limited, suggesting it may only be able to put up limited resistance, which may encourage the US to continue pressing its advantage.\n\nOne near-term risk is a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, where 20% of global oil supply flows through. Iran has reportedly declared the trade route “[closed](https://www.afr.com/world/middle-east/oil-and-lng-suppliers-suspend-shipping-through-strait-of-hormuz-20260301-p5o6co)“, although effective enforcement remains unclear – especially with the US targeting Iranian warships. Even without a formal blockade, however, oil-related transport costs are likely to rise given shipping companies may re-route to alternative, more expensive routes and freight insurance costs are likely to surge.\n\nLikely of secondary importance this week will be Friday’s US payrolls report, with a modest 58k gain in jobs during February expected, which should keep the unemployment rate steady at 4.3%. \n\nGlobal equity trends: the great rotation continues\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nThe MSCI All-Country World Equity Index rose 0.3% last week, modestly outperforming the US market – led by solid gains in Japan and emerging markets. The NASDAQ-100 slipped 0.2%, slightly less than the S&P 500.  \n\nThat said, the great rotation remains in place. Since the end of October 2025, we’ve seen underperformance of US/growth/technology, replaced by strength in Japan, emerging markets and small caps. There are also tentative signs of a bottoming out in the underperformance of the Australian market. Despite the US tech underperformance, global quality (among factors) is also holding up reasonably well.  \n\nAs we saw in 2022, if a global energy shock plays out, there may be a further rotation from interest rate-sensitive cyclical and technology sectors into more value-orientated defensives and resources.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table3-1.png) \n\nAustralian week in review: still firm employment\n------------------------------------------------\n\nDespite local interest rate fears, Australian shares enjoyed another decent bounce last week, with the S&P/ASX 200 further moving north of the 9,000 level. Defensive companies and resources generally fared best, with materials and consumer staples returning 7.4% and 5.0% respectively. That said, the beaten-down technology sector bounced for the second week in a row.   \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table3.png)\n\nThe main news last week was another firm monthly consumer price index (CPI) report, with annual trimmed mean inflation edging up to 3.4% from 3.3%. As I [argued](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/january-2026-cpi/) last week, while the monthly figures need to be taken with a grain of salt, the apparent broad-based firmness in prices does not bode well for a benign Q1 CPI report in late April. \n\nOther economic data was also generally firm:\n\nTotal Q4 construction spending was weaker than expected, although this reflected a winding down in several public infrastructure projects offset by ongoing strength in private residential and non-residential building.\n\nMeanwhile, private Q4 capital spending was firmer-than-expected – strength in non-mining construction activity was partly offset by a pullback in data centre related spending on machinery and equipment. \n\nAll up, housing and business investment appears to have held up well in Q4.       \n\nAustralian week ahead: Q4 GDP \n------------------------------\n\nHot off the press this morning, national capital city house prices rose a further 0.7% in February, although the most strength is being seen in the cheaper cities outside of Sydney and Melbourne. The RBA’s rate hike last month is likely to see a broader cooling in prices in the months ahead.  \n\nThe local highlight this week will be Wednesday’s Q4 GDP report. The market anticipates a solid 0.7% gain following the 0.4% Q3 gain, with signs of ongoing broad-based strength in private demand (consumer spending, housing and business investment). \n\nGiven the RBA’s intense focus on capacity constraints, further evidence of solid Q4 domestic demand (which rose 1% in Q3) will add to the pressure for another rate hike – although **I still see the next move in May (after the Q1 CPI report) rather than this month.**\n\nWith regards to the Iran conflict, implications for the RBA would be fairly mixed – higher global energy prices would be a negative for consumer spending and sentiment, while also placing upward pressure on headline inflation (fuel accounts for 3% of the CPI). **On balance, however, heightened geopolitical tensions – if they persisted and escalated – would tend to make the RBA less likely to hike rates amidst such uncertainty**.\n\nAustralian equity trends\n------------------------\n\nResources continue to go from strength to strength in the local market, with financials experiencing a range bound relative performance. We’ve seen a tentative bounce in the (likely oversold) technology and small cap space in recent weeks, likely reflecting bargain hunting among stocks judged to have been unfairly sold down by AI disruption fears.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table4.png)\n\nHave a great week!\n------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3252,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2246,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

don’t go up in a straight line (wouldn’t that be nice!).\n\nIn reality, and as investors are experiencing in the current environment, volatility goes hand-in-hand with investing and periods of negative returns are not uncommon. However, over the longer term, sharemarkets have tended to trend upwards.\n\n### **_Historical returns of the Australian sharemarket: S&P/ASX 200 Total Return Index_**\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Chart_Web_250409.png)\n\n##### Source: Morningstar Direct, Betashares. Returns from 02/04/2001 to 09/04/2025. Past performance is not indicative of future performance.  \n\nThere are a multitude of factors that can cause periods of negative returns, whether this be a collapse in the financial system (the Global Financial Crisis), a global pandemic (COVID), or the prices of goods and services rising faster than anticipated (inflation), causing central banks to raise interest rates.\n\n## What to do during market volatility\n\n### **Questions to ask yourself**\n\nWhen investors see the value of their portfolio declining, it is not unnatural for them to panic.\n\nThe key is to try to remain rational and maintain a disciplined investment approach. The opening phrase of Rudyard Kipling’s _If_ comes to mind – “If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs …”.\n\nTo help you maintain a sense of level-headedness, you can begin by asking yourself two questions:\n\n1.  Is this pullback ‘normal’ like many we have seen throughout history?\n2.  Do my financial objectives remain the same?\n\nIf the answers to both these questions are ’Yes’, the pullback shouldn’t warrant wholesale changes in your investment approach. Sticking to smaller adjustments, if any, may be more appropriate.\n\n### **Consider your options**\n\nWhen considering what to do with your portfolio, there are three main options:\n\n1.  Sell and aim to avoid further losses\n2.  Buy the dips, seeing an opportunity to buy at a lower price\n3.  Do nothing and ride the wave\n\nWithout hindsight, there is no certainty as to which of these is best, however the first two do require you to time the market, which requires either skill or luck, and is almost impossible to do consistently. While everyone’s goals and circumstances are different, history suggests that taking a longer-term view may be the best course of action.\n\n## Tips for investing for the long-term\n\n### **Diversification is your best form of risk management**\n\nMarkets typically recover, individual stocks may not. As such, investors need to appropriately [diversify their portfolios](/category/portfolio-diversification/).\n\nWhile a single ETF can provide access to hundreds of securities in one trade, it is also important to hold a blend of asset classes, regions and sectors as different exposures can benefit or suffer in different environments.\n\n### **Know your risk tolerance and timeframe**\n\nThere is generally a trade-off between risk and return. Typically, the lower your risk, the less you should expect in return.\n\n### _**Risk/return profiles of different asset classes**_\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/ETF-_Graphs_221205_Investment-101-Risk-vs-Return_800px-e1722899074371.png)\n\n##### Source: Betashares. Provided for illustrative purposes only. Not a recommendation to make any investment or adopt any investment strategy.\n\nKnowing your risk tolerance is key to constructing your portfolio and should determine your mix of asset classes. Typically, the longer your time horizon, the more risk you can take as you have more time to weather periods of negative returns as illustrated above.\n\n### **Contribute periodically**\n\nWhile it is extremely difficult to time markets, contributing on a regular, periodic basis ([dollar cost averaging](/education/dollar-cost-averaging-taking-time-out-of-the-investment-equation/)) can have great benefits. By sticking to a schedule, you will buy dips as well as buying at highs, assisting in reducing your overall volatility. It will also help enhance the compounding effect.\n\n## Conclusion\n\nMarket corrections are normal, however understandably can raise internal questions for investors. But keeping in perspective that markets can be volatile and maintaining a long-term plan with your financial goals firmly in mind can help you to make rational investment decisions.\n\nA well-diversified portfolio should also allow you to weather the storm and come out the other side.\n\n* * *\n\n##### This article contains general information only and does not take into account any person’s objectives, financial situation or needs.

But if history has taught us anything, it's that market corrections – periods when share prices drop significantly – are not only common but are often temporary.\n\nETF investors with a long-term view can think of downturns or pullbacks as potential buying opportunities. Here's why.\n\n## A brief history of market corrections\n\nOver the past 50 years, the ASX has seen several significant drops:\n\n### **1987 crash (Black Monday)**\n\nOn 20 October 1987, the ASX 200 fell 25% in one day – one of the biggest one-day drops in its history[¹](#1). Despite the drama, the market reached its low within a month and recovered to pre-crash levels in around 2.5 years.\n\n### **Dot-com crash (2000-2002)**\n\nDriven by speculative tech stocks, the ASX 200 declined about 22%, bottoming out over two years. It took around three years for the losses during the dot-com crash to be erased.\n\n### **Global Financial Crisis (2008-2009)**\n\nThe ASX 200 dropped 54% over approximately 17 months. But investors who held firm saw markets fully recover within about five years.\n\nSimilarly, global markets have historically reflected the same resilience:\n\n### **COVID-19 crash (2020)**\n\nIn the US, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell roughly 34% and 30% respectively between 19 February high to the 23 March bottom[²](#2). However, both bounced back to pre-crash highs within about six months, driven by rapid economic intervention.\n\n### **European Debt Crisis (2011-2012)**\n\nThe Euro Stoxx 50 declined around 35% over two years due to a slew of sovereign debt concerns. Yet, within three years, markets fully recovered.\n\nDespite the panic surrounding market crashes, the long-term picture tells a different story:\n\n* Australian equities have delivered an 8.33% total return over the past 25 years³.\n* Global equities have returned 8.60% annually since 1987⁴.\n\nIn other words, markets recover, and disciplined investors are rewarded over time.\n\n## Why are investors nervous now?\n\nSince President Trump declared 2 April as Liberation Day and announced the most sweeping tariffs in nearly a century, global sharemarkets have experienced significant volatility. \n\nOur Investment Strategy & Research team have provided further insights into what could happen next and how investors may think about different asset classes following Liberation Day [here](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/liberation-day-fallout/).\n\n## What triggers market corrections?\n\nMarket corrections are usually triggered by a combination of economic, geopolitical and financial factors. Common causes include rising interest rates, economic recessions, unexpected geopolitical events or simply excessive optimism leading to speculative bubbles. Understanding that these triggers are often temporary can help ease anxiety and encourage discipline in your investment strategy.\n\n## Some common mistakes investors make\n\nDuring market downturns, investors commonly make emotional decisions that can negatively impact their long-term returns:\n\n### **Panic selling**\n\nSelling out of fear locks in losses and prevents investors from benefiting when markets recover.\n\n### **Trying to time the market**\n\nPredicting short-term movements is nearly impossible. History shows that investors who stay invested tend to achieve better long-term results.\n\n### **Drastic asset allocation shifts**\n\nMaking sudden changes – such as shifting large amounts from one asset class to another – can derail a long-term strategy and reduce future returns.\n\n### **Halting regular investments**\n\nMany investors consistently add money during market upswings but hesitate when prices drop. However, adding to your investments during downturns may help you to improve your long-term returns when markets rebound.\n\n### **Holding too much cash**\n\nWhile having a cash buffer is important, keeping too much on the sidelines may mean missing out on potential market recoveries and long-term growth.\n\nMaking any of these mistakes, or a combination of them, can significantly hurt long-term returns. Investors often panic during downturns and chase markets after they rebound, missing some of the best days of performance in between. We cover this topic in more detail [here.](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/investment-performance-during-accumulation-years/)\n\n## The power of diversification\n\nETFs may help you avoid these mistakes by providing diversified exposure that removes the temptation to pick individual winners or losers.\n\nIn addition, by spreading investments across various markets, sectors and regions, you may avoid the worst impacts of any single downturn. Diversified portfolios, especially those with global exposure, are historically better positioned to absorb shocks and recover more quickly.\n\n## Turning downturns into opportunities\n\nETFs provide a practical way to navigate market corrections. When markets fall, adding steadily to your investments (known as [dollar-cost averaging](https://www.betashares.com.au/education/dollar-cost-averaging-taking-time-out-of-the-investment-equation/)) allows you to gain exposure to more of your preferred investment for less. For numerous historical reasons, those who stay invested during downturns tend to see stronger long-term returns[³](#3). Note that here, we are talking about staying the course in your long-term investment strategy during a downturn and not about dip-buying. The latter strategy is both very difficult to execute and could cost you a small fortune in fees.\n\nAs Warren Buffett famously put it: \"The stock market is a device to transfer money from the 'impatient' to the 'patient'.\"\n\n## Stay calm, stay invested\n\nThe next time markets wobble, remember that market corrections aren't disasters. They're part of the journey. By sticking to your investment strategy, especially with ETFs that provide broad, diversified exposure, you're positioned well for long-term growth.\n\nStay calm, stay invested and stay diversified. If history is any guide, patience and discipline will be rewarded.\n\n---\n\n## References:\n\n##### 1. [Is the ASX 200 about to crash?

expectations.\n\nAs it turns out, the decision did end up being a close call, with five voting members agreeing to hike rates and four desiring to leave them on hold.

This shock both puts upward pressure on inflation and poses downside risks to economic growth. \n\nSome Board members clearly felt the mixed economic effects of the energy shock warranted keeping rates on hold, while others, likely including the RBA Governor and Deputy Governor, were more concerned about the upside inflation risks, especially given recent solid GDP and employment reports along with the lift in consumer inflation expectations.","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3342,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":844,"__component":"content.title","title":"Where to from here?","style":"h3","emphasis":null,"link":[]},{"id":3343,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":2303,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Today’s very split RBA decision suggests a rate hike at the next policy meeting in May is not a done deal.

If Middle East hostilities end quickly and oil prices fall, pressure for another rate rise would ease. The RBA will also be watching how businesses and consumers respond to the recent back-to-back rate hikes.\n\nThe worst case is a prolonged conflict that disrupts oil supply, particularly through the Strait of Hormuz, or damages production facilities. Sustained higher energy prices could force the RBA into aggressive rate hikes to contain inflation expectations, even at the cost of a recession and unemployment rising to 5% or more.\n\nThe best case is a swift resolution to the conflict alongside a soft Q1 CPI print, removing the need for another rate hike in May.\n\nMy base case is that hostilities ease by May and oil prices fall from current levels. Even so, the RBA may still hike again in May if March-quarter inflation remains uncomfortably high, partly due to recent energy price increases.","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3340,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"small","size_web":null},{"id":52,"__component":"cards.banner","title":"Middle East conflict: Investor update and Q&A","subtitle":"Register for webinar ","action":"Go","action_style":"chevron","uri":"https://event.eu.on24.com/wcc/r/8000193651/D5F731C89DA46B386EFB75B1842F7F7D","image":{"data":{"id":3172,"attributes":{"name":"Frame 29315.png","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":320,"height":320,"formats":{"thumbnail":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_Frame_29315_9471b0230f.png","hash":"thumbnail_Frame_29315_9471b0230f","mime":"image/png","name":"thumbnail_Frame 29315.png","path":null,"size":39.28,"width":156,"height":156}},"hash":"Frame_29315_9471b0230f","ext":".png","mime":"image/png","size":109.68,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/Frame_29315_9471b0230f.png","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2026-03-10T08:20:12.426Z","updatedAt":"2026-03-10T08:20:12.426Z"}}},"image_dark":{"data":null}},{"id":3341,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"small","size_web":null},{"id":845,"__component":"content.title","title":"A compelling solution for your cash allocation","style":"h3","emphasis":null,"link":[]},{"id":3350,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":2304,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"When rates rise, banks usually pass increases on quickly to borrowers (like mortgage holders).\nBut for savers, it’s a different story.\n\nHistorically, banks have been slow to lift deposit rates, often paying less than the RBA cash rate -  even when you lock your money away in a term deposit.\n\nCash and money market funds aim to give investors closer exposure to official interest rates, without locking money away.","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3345,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":339,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":591,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":179,"attributes":{"symbol":"MMKT","name":"Australian Cash Plus Fund","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Earn attractive income, paid monthly, from cash and high-quality money market securities.","description_long":null,"fee":0.18,"createdAt":"2024-12-16T23:51:50.281Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:53.649Z","publishedAt":"2024-12-16T23:51:52.416Z","symbol_openfigi":"MMKT:AU","tags":{"data":[{"id":1,"attributes":{"tag":"income","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:06:02.686Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.669Z","mutations":"yield,passive-income"}},{"id":68,"attributes":{"tag":"money-market","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:36.405Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:13.587Z","mutations":null}},{"id":93,"attributes":{"tag":"money","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:39.234Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:18.282Z","mutations":null}},{"id":174,"attributes":{"tag":"bill","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:08.803Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:59.047Z","mutations":null}},{"id":176,"attributes":{"tag":"isec","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:08.854Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:59.142Z","mutations":null}}]}}}}}]},{"id":3346,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":2305,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"MMKT aims to deliver a return above the RBA cash rate over time, while still providing:\n\n- Competitive income relative to bank deposits\n- Daily liquidity (buy and sell on the ASX)\n- Income that can rise as markets expect further rate hikes","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3347,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":2306,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"An investment in MMKT does not receive the benefit of any government guarantee.

in the space economy – from launch pad to commercial reality)\n\nKey points\n----------\n\n01\n\n**A structural shift** – Breakthroughs in launch and communications technology have transformed space from a government-led domain into a commercially driven economy.\n\n02\n\n**Use cases are already here today –** Satellite broadband (Starlink), direct-to-smartphone connectivity (AST SpaceMobile), and earth observation data (Planet Labs) are all generating meaningful, growing revenue.\n\n03\n\n**Launch costs are the enabler** – Reusable rockets have cut the cost of reaching orbit by over 90%[\\[1\\]](#_ftn1)\n\n04\n\n**Investing in the theme –** The BetasharesSpace Industry ETF (ASX: RCKT) is an ASX first exposure, targeting 30 pure-play space companies with a fast-entry mechanism designed to capture significant IPOs like SpaceX.\n\nThe number of objects being launched into space has skyrocketed in recent years.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/rckt_1.png)\n\nSource: United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (2026)\n\nWhile rocket and satellite technologies have been around for many decades, we have seen a resurgence in interest around space this year. The upcoming SpaceX IPO and NASA’s successful Artemis II mission have certainly created a lot of excitement for the industry, but this article will explore some of the technological innovations and real-life use cases making space an increasingly viable commercial opportunity for investors.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/phpkugu06uvs5iu0ClUqVH-rId17.jpeg)\n\nSource: NASA. Earthset captured through the Orion spacecraft window at 6:41 p.m. EDT, April 6, 2026, during the Artemis II crew’s flyby of the Moon.\n\nThe LEO revolution\n------------------\n\nAccording to the World Economic Forum, the global space economy was valued at US$630 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach US$1.8 trillion by 2035\\[2\\], with a large part of this growth driven by the development of **low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites**.\n\nThese types of satellites provide low-latency communication services, and a number of companies are now generating meaningful revenues from this technology.\n\n### What’s the difference between LEO, MEO and GEO satellites?\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/phpkugu06uvs5iu0ClUqVH-rId19.png)\n\nSource: Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research\n\nLower latency means faster, more responsive connectivity. Because LEO satellites are so much closer to the earth’s surface than GEO satellites, the time taken from for a signal to make the return trip is more than 10X faster\\[3\\]. Speed matters in an increasingly digitalised and connected world. The trade-off for being closer to the earth is that a satellite’s field of view is narrower, and you therefore need many more satellites operating in a coordinated network or ‘constellation’ in order to provide constant connectivity.\n\nSpaceX’s Starlink is the most prominent example with a constellation comprising over 10,000 LEO satellites, or roughly 65% of all active satellites in orbit, and serves more than 10 million subscribers globally\\[4\\]. The satellite internet division is highly profitable, contributing ~60-70% of SpaceX’s total revenue\\[5\\].\n\nMost of these revenues stem from monthly consumer internet subscriptions, government and defence agencies, but also maritime and aviation companies.\n\nIn Ukraine, Starlink became a cornerstone of civilian and military communications within hours of Russia’s 2022 invasion, supporting hospitals, railways, and frontline operations after terrestrial networks were destroyed. By mid-2022, over 150,000 Ukrainians were relying on the service daily\\[6\\].\n\nAdditionally, over 40 million passengers have used Starlink on airlines and cruise ships last year\\[7\\]. Major carriers including United, Emirates and British Airways are replacing outdated legacy GEO-satellite Wi-Fi across their fleets with Starlink, delivering passengers internet speeds equivalent to home broadband.\n\nLocally in Australia, Telstra and NSW Rural Fire Services are actively using Starlink for satellite broadband and mobile services.\n\nMobile coverage: the next frontier\n----------------------------------\n\nWhile Starlink requires a dedicated terminal, an equally significant parallel technology is emerging: space-based mobile networks that connect directly to standard smartphones. The leading pure-play company here is AST SpaceMobile (ASTS).\n\nIn October 2025, the company signed a definitive commercial agreement with Verizon to provide direct-to-mobile service starting in 2026, following Verizon’s US$100 million strategic investment the prior year\\[8\\]. The deal was announced after successful demonstrations, including voice and video calls between standard phones via satellite.\n\nAST SpaceMobile has also secured agreements with AT&T and Vodafone and plans to deploy 45–60 next-generation satellites in LEO by the end of this year\\[9\\]. Although currently unprofitable, AST is expected to become profitable next year as subscriber revenue and commercial services ramp up.\n\nSpace Data as a Service: Planet Labs\n------------------------------------\n\nBeyond the infrastructure layer, space data as a service (SDaaS) is becoming increasingly viable as sectors like defence and agriculture seek on-demand, scalable data sets to inform critical decision-making.\n\nPlanet Labs (PL) is a key leader in this sector, operating the largest commercial earth observation constellation in history with over 200 satellites imaging the Earth’s entire landmass every 24 hours. PL overlays AI to generate valuable insights from this image data that are sold as a subscription, generating over 90% of revenue on a recurring basis. Its client mix spans agriculture, forestry, defence, insurance, and financial services.\n\nIn its most recent fiscal year, Planet Labs posted revenue of approximately US$308 million and achieved full-year adjusted EBITDA profitability for the first time, with a backlog reaching US$900 million\\[10\\]. Defence and intelligence have been the key growth drivers — including a €240 million multi-year German government contract\\[11\\].\n\nThe enabler: falling launch costs\n---------------------------------\n\nNone of the above would be commercially viable without the dramatic decline in the cost of reaching orbit – a key metric underpinning the entire industry’s expansion.\n\nTraditional launch vehicles have cost upwards of US$12,000 per kilogram to LEO. SpaceX’s Falcon 9, through reusable first-stage boosters, brought this to US$2,000–4,000 while next-generation vehicles like SpaceX’s Starship could push costs as low as US$100–200 per kilogram\\[12\\]. Importantly, both the _cost per kilogram_ and the _cost per mission_ have fallen.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/phpkugu06uvs5iu0ClUqVH-rId20.png)\n\nThis dynamic is self-reinforcing: lower launch costs enable larger constellations, which create more data and connectivity capacity, which attracts more commercial customers, and therefore funds further launches.\n\nWith launch capacity still a key bottleneck, vertical integration is becoming more common – traditional launch providers like Rocket Lab and Firefly Aerospace are now building their own satellites as well.\n\nInvestment implications\n-----------------------\n\nThe Betashares Space Industry ETF (ASX: RCKT) is a first of its kind, aiming to provide targeted exposure to the space theme.\n\nThe fund seeks to track the Solactive Space Industry Index which includes up to 30 pure-play space companies weighted by their float adjusted market capitalisation, with a single-stock weight cap of 10%. Where the Index contains companies with a total market capitalisation above US$250 billion, the largest such company may carry a maximum weight of 25%.\n\nUnlike broader aerospace indices that include conglomerates like Boeing or Lockheed Martin — where space may represent a small fraction of total revenue — the index also targets companies for which space is the primary business. Top holdings include names discussed throughout this article: Planet Labs, Viasat, EchoStar (which holds a minor stake in SpaceX), Rocket Lab, Globalstar, MDA Space, and AST SpaceMobile.\n\nA notable design feature is the index’s fast-entry of eligible major IPOs into the index shortly after listing (generally two trading days), such as that anticipated for SpaceX.\n\n> “The space economy is supported by long term structural tailwinds — including by falling launch costs, expanding satellite constellations, and deepening commercial demand across broadband, mobile, data, and defence.”\n\nBetashares\n\nInvestors can now invest in this theme through RCKT in one single trade on the ASX.\n\nFootnotes\n\n1\\.

while the iron is hot’. ‘Rome wasn’t built in a day’. ‘Make hay while the sun shines’. We grow up absorbing these sayings without ever really questioning them. They sound wise, they feel intuitive, and we pass them on without a second thought.\n\nBut here’s the thing about conventional wisdom: it isn’t always right.\n\nInvesting has its own set of deeply embedded sayings that millions of people accept as gospel. And just like the ones above, they sound logical on the surface. The problem is that, for everyday investors, acting on them can potentially do more harm than good.\n\nHere are three of the most common investing myths, and what the evidence says.\n\n### **1\\. Buy low, sell high**\n\nArguably the most well-known phrase in the investing universe and intuitively it makes complete sense. We’re all in this investing game for one simple thing: to make more money in the future than we have today. So of course we want to buy something when it’s cheap and sell it to someone else when it’s expensive.\n\nBut while it may make intuitive sense, ‘Buy low, sell high’ is unfortunately a lot easier said than done.\n\nIt’s been proven time and time again that, for the everyday investor, consistently buying at the bottom and selling at the top is close to impossible. And this isn’t just a trap that catches new investors. Many professional investors spend their entire careers attempting to time the market and still fall short.\n\nWe can see this in a [study](https://www.cxoadvisory.com/gurus/) by CXO Advisory Group. Between 1998 and 2012 they tracked 6,582 forecasts from 68 industry experts. And their findings? Their cumulative accuracy didn’t even reach pass mark: only 47% of the market forecasts were correct and not a single ‘guru’ exceeded 68% accuracy.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/word-image-87091-1.png)\n\nSo I will counter ‘Buy low, sell high’ with another common investing adage: ‘Time in the market beats timing the market’.\n\nA Bank of America study looked at the S&P 500 from 1930 to 2021 and the implications of if a person [missed the best 10 days in the market](https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/24/this-chart-shows-why-investors-should-never-try-to-time-the-stock-market.html) of each decade.\n\nBased on this study, if you had invested in 1930 and then done nothing, just kept your money in the market, you would have achieved a total return of 17,715%.. ¹\n\nIf on the other hand you had tried to time the market, and by some misfortune ended up missing out on the 10 best days in each decade, you would after 91 years have been left with only a 28% return. [¹](#post-87091-footnote-1)\n\n### **2\\. You need lots of money to start investing**\n\n‘Investing is only reserved for the uber wealthy’. Those who summer in the south of France or spend their winters in the Swiss Alps.\n\nGrowing up, this wasn’t so much a myth as it was a reasonable assumption. Investing in the 1980s and 1990s genuinely did require a large lump sum of money and an in-person meeting with a stockbroker to execute a trade.\n\nThe myth persists. [HSBC’s annual Australian investor research](https://www.about.hsbc.com.au/news-and-media/australians-are-investing-less-and-more-conservatively-hsbc-survey) for 2023 found that on average Australians still believe they need $15,200 to start investing. That’s up from the previous year which was $14,800.\n\nBut the reality is that anyone can now invest with the change in their pocket.\n\nPlatforms have slashed the barrier to entry, with many now offering $0 brokerage fees. And while spare change may not sound like much, investing just $1 a day for 50 years, growing at the ASX’s historical average annual return of 11% including dividends, could grow to close to $800,000.\n\n### **3\\. Investing is too risky right now**\n\nThere is plenty of reason to be worried about the state of the world right now. Wars rage on across the globe, shipping routes have been disrupted, driving up the price of everyday goods, and companies appear to be announcing AI-related job cuts on a daily basis. It is completely understandable to feel hesitant about investing when the outlook for the future feels this uncertain.\n\nBut economic uncertainty and market crashes are simply the price of admission for long-term investors.\n\nWhen geopolitical events dominate the headlines, the natural instinct is to panic. War, conflict and political crisis can be the moments when investors convince themselves the market is about to collapse and make emotional decisions they later regret.\n\nBut history tells a very different story.\n\nLooking at six of the most significant geopolitical events of the last century – World War II, the Bay of Pigs, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and the Gulf War – the stock market didn’t just survive. It rebounded. In every case, the S&P 500 delivered a strongly positive return within 10 years of the event. The worst performer of the six was World War II, where the market was still up 89% a decade on. The best performer was the Korean War, after which the market climbed 492% over the same period.\n\nNot every recovery was quick. The 1973 oil crisis and the 1979 Iranian Revolution both triggered painful downturns and, in the case of 1973, it took years for the market to return to its previous level. But even these, the most damaging geopolitical shocks of the last century, were eventually overcome by patient investors who stayed the course.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/word-image-87091-2.png)\n\n_You cannot invest directly in an index. Past performance is not indicative of future performance._\n\nIf the uncertainty still feels uncomfortable, one practical approach is dollar cost averaging – investing a fixed amount at regular intervals regardless of what markets are doing. Most Australians already do this through their super without realising it.\n\nBetashares Direct’s Auto-invest makes it simple to apply the same approach to your personal investments, with recurring investments into up to five Betashares ETFs, brokerage-free.\n\nThe takeaway is simple: the natural inclination is to panic and sell during times like this. But what the data consistently shows is that the stock market is remarkably resilient. It may wobble in the short term but, given time, it keeps grinding higher.\n\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3515,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2438,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

takeaways:**\n\n*   Adoption is moving from experimentation to production, with the steepest part of the S-curve still ahead.\n*   Anthropic hits US$30B annualised run-rate from $9B at the end of 2025, fuelled by rapid enterprise adoption.\n*   Q1 2026 results from publicly listed hyperscalers reinforce the investment case for hardware and cloud providers building out next-gen compute capacity.\n*   The Nasdaq 100’s valuation premium relative to the S&P 500 is at multi-year lows, supported by strong earnings growth.\n\nNot long ago, fears of an AI bubble dominated headlines throughout Q4 2025. Concerns around elevated valuations, rising debt issuance patterns and a massive amount of data centre capex spending saw the broader tech sector derate considerably.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/word-image-87078-1.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. 2026 figures are estimates.\n\nBut as we’ve highlighted [in this article](https://www.betashares.com.au/advisers/insights/boom-bubble-or-bust/) late last year, upfront investment outlays are often required before revenues scale exponentially; so the key question on investors’ minds was whether this would occur and if so, how long would it take before investor patience runs thin?\n\nFortunately, Q1 2026 results from the mega cap tech companies as a whole were enough to push US equity markets back to all-time highs despite the ongoing war in the Middle East.\n\n*   Alphabet was the standout performer despite capex guidance being raised to a range of US$185-$190 billion this year. The insatiable demand for compute has seen GCP (Google Cloud Platform) revenues soar by more than 60%, hitting US$20 billion for the quarter.\n*   While Microsoft’s results were also solid with Azure cloud revenue growing 40%, it is not experiencing the same reacceleration as its peers.\n*   Meta was another casualty with markets penalising its lack of cloud service offering but importantly have seen material ROI benefits with AI. The company experienced a rapid acceleration in top-line growth at higher EBITDA margins (~50%) while average prices per ad rose by 12% year-over-year.\n*   Amazon slipped as capex spending weighs on free cash flows despite AWS (Amazon Web Services) growing 28% yoy, marking the fastest growth rate in 15 quarters highlighting significant reacceleration, while its chip business (Trainium, Graviton) hit a $US20 billion annual run rate.\n*   Finally, Apple delivered better than expected results with iPhone sales up 22% while the CEO succession announcement of John Ternus is generally being looked upon favourably by markets given his more than two decades experience at Apple and demonstrable working experience with product/hardware design.\n\nBeyond the overall robust results across these publicly listed megacap tech companies, we are also seeing positive developments with private model developers such as Anthropic, the creator of Claude.\n\nAnthropic surpasses OpenAI in annualised revenue\n------------------------------------------------\n\nPerhaps the best proof point happened last month when Anthropic [announced](https://www.anthropic.com/news/google-broadcom-partnership-compute) it surpassed US$30 billion in annual run-rate revenue – up from just $9 billion at the end of 2025.\n\nThat’s more than triple in the space of just three months, with the rapid step change in growth driven by accelerating enterprise adoption with now over 1,000 businesses paying over $1 million annually for Anthropic’s latest models.\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/word-image-87078-1.png) Source: Altimeter Capital Management estimates, Anthropic Press Release\n\nTo put into context how fast this achievement is, Google only crossed the $30B revenue threshold when it had ~110,000 people. Anthropic achieved this milestone with ~2,500 employees and just ~1.5-2 gigawatts of compute capacity. All else equal, that should bode well for improving unit economics and gross margins.\n\nAnd with AI agents becoming a legitimate solution to solve real business problems, there will likely be more companies embedding Anthropic models into their workflows and customer facing apps via APIs. Usage is evidently shifting from experimentation phase to larger, production-level deployment.\n\nThe outlook for continued revenue acceleration remains bright given we have not yet reached the steepest part of the technology S-curve with enterprise AI penetration still in early stages.\n\nThe outlook for US tech\n-----------------------\n\nAnthropic’s result is a vote of confidence to the broader AI ecosystem and so far, validates megacap tech spending on data centre infrastructure.\n\nSince March 31ˢᵗ, the blended earnings growth rate for the US Information Technology sector increased to 50%[¹](#post-87078-footnote-1), led by companies in the semiconductor industry.\n\nAbroad, Samsung, a leading memory chip manufacturer, [reported an eightfold jump in quarterly profit](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-04-06/samsung-profit-up-eight-fold-after-ai-chip-sales-defy-war-fears), while [Taiwan Semiconductor posted a 58% profit jump](https://pr.tsmc.com/english/news/3297).\n\nBeyond strong fundamentals, valuations are attractive with the ratio of Nasdaq 100’s forward price-to-earnings ratio to S&P 500’s at multi-year lows. A large part of the decline in this ratio has been driven by the Nasdaq 100’s superior earnings growth over recent years.\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/ai_bubble_b2b_3.png) Source: Bloomberg. As at 5 May 2026.\n\nAdditionally, the Nasdaq’s [new fast entry rule](https://www.reuters.com/business/new-nasdaq-rules-include-fast-entry-new-listings-benchmark-index-2026-03-30/) would also allow massive IPOs, such as potential listings from Anthropic, OpenAI, and SpaceX, to join the index just 15 trading days after listing.\n\nLooking forward, investors will remain attentive to how unit economics evolve, particularly for AI research labs like Anthropic given the scale of infrastructure investment required. That said, this is a positive development for leading hardware providers such as Google and Broadcom they are building the latest generation TPU chips, set to provide Anthropic around 3.5 gigawatts of compute capacity starting in 2027.\n\nWith the Nasdaq 100 trading at fairer valuations, and evidence of AI monetisation already before us, investors may find an attractive opportunity in tech now.\n\n**Source:**\n\n1\\.

decades, building wealth in Australia followed a familiar script. Today, that script is being rewritten.\n\nMillennials and Gen Z are navigating a tougher starting point. But they’re also more engaged with their finances than any generation before them, using new tools and strategies to chart their own path forward.\n\nFor generations, the path to prosperity was clear: get a job, open a savings account and enjoy a few percentage points of interest a year until you could afford a modest home. Higher savings rates and lower house prices meant an average household income in the 70s and 80s could save up for a 20% deposit on a median home in around two years.\n\nThat playbook is no longer possible.\n\nProperty prices have grown at more than twice the rate of wages in the last two decades, while post-COVID inflation has added a tidy 23% to the price of everything else since 2020. Today, the average dwelling costs roughly 10 times the average wage so, unfortunately, skipping the avocado toast isn’t going to cut it.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/word-image-86870-1.png)\n\nWith property ownership out of reach, wages not keeping up with prices and the possibility of entry-level jobs being decimated by AI, young Australians are looking beyond the traditional playbook in pursuit of financial progress.\n\nHow young Australians are growing their wealth\n\nOver the past decade we’ve become familiar with the acronym FOMO: Fear of Missing Out. Today, many young people face a different concern: Fear of Being Left Behind.\n\nTo keep their wealth growing faster than prices, more young Australians are turning to stock market investing.\n\nA [2024 HSBC study](https://www.about.hsbc.com.au/news-and-media/australians-are-ignoring-the-golden-rules-of-investing) found that 85% of Gen Z and 81% of Millennials had invested in the past six months. This compares to just over half of Gen X and Baby Boomers.\n\nWhat’s more, they’re investing a larger share of their income. Gen Z and Millennials were investing 24% and 21% of their monthly net incomes, respectively, compared to around 8% for Baby Boomers.\n\nWhy are young people investing more than older equivalents? One reason is the changing economic circumstances, as HSBC’s David Talbot explained: “Given this generation is facing challenges accessing the housing market, they are taking it upon themselves to build wealth through methods more accessible to them, and allocating more of their income to do so.”\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Young-OZ_Article_Pullout-1400x432.png)\n\n### How are young Australians getting started?\n\nIt’s never been easier for young people to learn about investing. There are thousands of podcasts, YouTube tutorials and social media channels dedicated to helping build financial literacy.\n\nIt’s also never been easier to start investing. The ASX’s 2023 [Investor Study](https://www.asx.com.au/investors/investment-tools-and-resources/australian-investor-study) found that the products young Australians are buying are changing.\n\nFor older Australians, direct shares remain the preference: 71% of retirees own direct Australian shares compared to 43% of next-generation investors.\n\nYounger investors, however, are gravitating towards ETFs, which offer a simpler and more diversified way to build a portfolio. Just 9% of retirees hold ETFs, compared to 33% of next-generation investors.\n\nYoung Australians aren’t abandoning the idea of building wealth. They’re adapting to a world where the old rules no longer apply.\n\nWhile the path may be less certain, it’s also more flexible. Earlier engagement with investing, greater access to information and a willingness to embrace new tools are reshaping what financial progress looks like.\n\nThe real test will come when markets turn, as they inevitably do. But if this generation’s early habits are any indication, many are not just participating, they’re learning how to stay the course.\n\nThat’s partly a product of the moment. Platforms like Betashares Direct, a wave of investing podcasts and free online education have made starting accessible in a way it simply wasn’t for previous generations. And for a lot of young Australians, that’s exactly where it begins – just starting.\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3463,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2418,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

several years of strong performance, global defence stocks have recently stalled, with returns flattening over the past six months[\\[i\\]](#_edn1). The slowdown comes at a counterintuitive time, as the US’s war in Iran is depleting American stockpiles and reinforcing Europe’s need to strengthen its own defence capabilities.\n\nThe first 12 days of the Iran conflict alone are estimated to have cost the US around US$16.5 billion[\\[ii\\]](#_edn2), a reminder of how quickly modern warfare depletes equipment. In response, the US is planning a sharp increase in defence spending, with a proposed budget of around US$1.5 trillion. If approved, it would represent the most significant year-on-year defence budget growth in history[\\[iii\\]](#_edn3).\n\nImportantly, that spending is expected to flow not only to traditional defence contractors, but also to newer players focused on areas like AI, cyber security and autonomous systems, areas that are becoming central to how wars are fought.\n\nFor investors, this matters because defence companies don’t just benefit from current conflicts, they benefit from the years of rebuilding, re-arming and technological upgrade cycles that follow.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Picture2-46.png)\n\nSource: SIPRI Military Expenditure Database, Betashares. 2007 to 2025. 2026e reflects proposed budget. Actual results may differ materially from forecasts.\n\n### So why are defence stocks down?\n\nEuropean defence companies have been the main reason the global defence sector’s performance has recently slowed.\n\nFollowing significant gains last year on increased spending plans, including NATO’s 5% of GDP target and Germany’s historic debt reform, investors have taken a pause. Partly, this reflects high valuations but also the reality that it takes time for government spending to flow through to company profits.\n\nAt the same time, the long-term outlook for European defence spending continues to strengthen. Europe has historically relied on the US for its security, but growing uncertainty around how much support the US will provide, particularly during periods of global conflict, is pushing European governments to increase defence spending targets so they can protect themselves independently. Despite this, European defence company share prices have fallen significantly in recent months, resetting to levels seen roughly a year ago[\\[iv\\]](#_edn4).\n\nThe current pullback may offer long-term investors a more attractive entry point into a sector with long-lasting growth drivers and which is also being used by some investors as a ‘geopolitical hedge’ amid ongoing global uncertainty.\n\nWhile valuations do remain elevated, these higher valuations increasingly reflect expectations of sustained profit growth rather than hype.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Picture3-76.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, Betashares. 24 February 2022 to 31 March 2026. 10th and 90th percentile range. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.\n\nAs a result of global spending developments, for the second year in a row major defence contractors saw their order books grow by over US$100bn[\\[v\\]](#_edn5). The defence contractor order books we track now collectively exceeded US$1 trillion for the first time in history [\\[vi\\]](#_edn6). Record levels of contracted future orders are a positive sign for future profit growth and may support a sustained longer-term rise in defence company share prices.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Picture4-48.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, Betashares. Backlog order book value of select global defence contractors 2015 to 2025.\n\n### Investment implications\n\nWhile the Iran war is likely to lead to increased spending to restock US inventories and reinforces the need for Europe to boost its defence capabilities, it may be the longer-term implications that matter most for investors, long after any resolution in Iran.\n\nRussia’s invasion of Ukraine accelerated defence spending, Trump coming back into power fractured the US security umbrella, and now the Iran conflict may be turning these geopolitical trends into a lasting influence on investment markets, rather than a short-term disruption.\n\nFor investors, this may strengthen the case for long-term exposure to the defence sector, as part of a broader equities

investors don’t set out to make investing complicated. \n\nThey begin with a clear intention: to build wealth over time, contribute regularly and stay invested. It’s a sensible long-term approach and, in theory, a straightforward one. \n\nBut over time the process expands. Portfolios are checked more frequently, new ideas surface and small decisions accumulate, whether to adjust a position, add something new or pause and reassess. \n\nWhat started as a simple plan can gradually take on more weight than intended. Not because anything has gone wrong, but because investing, almost by design, invites ongoing involvement. \n\nAnd yet, the evidence points in a different direction. The investors who tend to do best are often those who find ways to make the process easier to live with. \n\n**When more choice gets in the way** \n-------------------------------------\n\nIt’s easy to assume that more options lead to better decisions. In practice, the relationship is less straightforward. \n\nMore isn’t always better. \n\nA much-cited [Columbia Business School study](https://business.columbia.edu/faculty/research/how-much-choice-too-much-contributions-401k-retirement-plans) of more than 500,000 retirement savers found that, as the number of investing options increased, so the number of people choosing to invest fell, dropping by around 2–3% for every additional 10 funds. \n\nThe finding highlighted a simple but important point: faced with greater choice, people are less likely to act. When investing becomes more complex, even well-intentioned investors can hesitate, delay or disengage. \n\n**The cost of intervention** \n-----------------------------\n\nFor those who do invest, the more significant challenge is not getting started but staying invested. \n\nThis is where behaviour starts to matter.  \n\nDALBAR’s long-running [_Quantitative Analysis of Investor Behavior_ (QAIB) research](https://www.dalbar.com/QAIB/) has found that, over time, the average equity fund investor has lagged the broader market by around 2–3% a year. The difference is largely explained by timing, with people stepping out during periods of uncertainty and returning after markets have already recovered. \n\nThese decisions rarely feel irrational in the moment. But over time, they interrupt the compounding process, which depends less on precision and more on continuity. \n\n**Making consistency practical** \n---------------------------------\n\nIn this light, the goal of investing shifts slightly. Rather than trying to refine every decision, the more useful question becomes how to reduce the number of decisions that need to be made in the first place. \n\nAutomating regular contributions means one less decision to make each month. Keeping a portfolio simple and manageable makes it easier to avoid constant tinkering. And when the admin is lighter, whether that’s clearer reporting or fewer manual steps, it’s easier to stay on top of things without thinking about it too much. \n\nOn their own, these changes are small. Together, they make it easier to keep doing the one thing that matters most: staying invested over time. \n\nInvesting doesn’t sit in a vacuum. It competes with work, family and everything else going on. The more effort it takes, the easier it is to drift away from it, even with the best intentions. \n\n**Investing, without the extra effort** \n----------------------------------------\n\nThere’s a shift towards making investing feel less like something you need to manage, and more like something that runs in the background. \n\nYou can see it in how newer platforms are built. More automation, clearer structures, less unnecessary complexity. \n\n[Betashares Direct](https://www.betashares.com.au/direct) reflects that shift, with tools that simplify admin and make it easier to stay consistent over time. Whether it’s setting up automated investments or creating a Managed Portfolio, investors these days have several options to win by doing less.\n\nIt’s a subtle change, but it adds up. \n\n_This information has been prepared by Betashares Capital Limited (ACN 139 566 868, AFSL 341181) (“Betashares”), the issuer of Betashares Invest, the IDPS-like scheme available through the Betashares Direct platform.

In the past five weeks, the cost of filling up has [jumped by about 40%](https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-03-29/how-rising-fuel-prices-are-affecting-australians/106497626), groceries have crept higher and businesses from courier companies to cafes have started adding fuel levies to invoices that didn’t have them six weeks ago. \n\nThe Iran war, whatever it means geopolitically, is showing up in the weekly shop and the monthly budget in ways that are hard to ignore.\n\n**What history tells us**\n-------------------------\n\nMoments like this one feel unprecedented when you’re in the middle of them. The news is loud, the uncertainty is real and the temptation to act is strong. But markets have been here many times before and the pattern of what tends to happen next is more consistent than most people realise.\n\nGeopolitical shocks, however severe they feel in the moment, have historically been temporary disruptions rather than permanent ones. Markets sell off fast and broadly, which is exactly what’s happened so far. But they have also tended to recover over time. \n\nData from [Deutsche Bank](https://www.morningstar.com/news/marketwatch/20260330245/us-stocks-are-faring-worse-than-during-past-geopolitical-shocks-and-theres-plenty-of-room-for-them-to-fall-further) found that, on average, the S&P 500 took 16 days to bottom following past geopolitical shocks. The average recovery took 109 days – which can seem like a long time but for those with a decades-long time horizon, it is little more than a footnote.\n\n**Why oil prices aren’t telling the whole story**\n-------------------------------------------------\n\nMuch of the volatility that is occurring right now can be traced back to what’s happening in energy markets. The price of Brent crude oil, which is up more than US$30/barrel in the past month alone (as at 31 March 2026), reflects current disruption. \n\nBut futures markets, where traders bet on where prices are headed, tell a different story. According to [CME Group](https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/energy/crude-oil/light-sweet-crude.quotes.html) (as at 30 March 2026), oil contracts for delivery in December 2026 are priced at US$77 per barrel, well below where prices sit today. This pricing suggests the market is not expecting the current level of disruption to become permanent.\n\nYou may have also seen the word stagflation cropping up in headlines and news stories over the last week. Stagflation is an economic phenomenon which combines rising inflation, slowing growth and rising unemployment all in a sustained manner. While that sounds concerning, we are nowhere near that point now. Right now, the first ingredient is present. However, the second and third risks are just that – risks that have not clearly materialised yet. \n\nIn other words, stagflation is a risk worth monitoring but it is not the headline act. And for many investors, one appropriate response to a risk that hasn’t arrived may be to simply stay the course and tune out the noise.\n\n**What this means for your investments**\n----------------------------------------\n\nPeriods like this tend to create a strong sense that something needs to be done. Markets are falling, headlines are constant and portfolios look different to how they did only weeks ago.\n\nBut this is also where the gap between instinct and outcome tends to open. \n\nFalling markets don’t just reduce values, they change the terms of investing. What happens during these periods often matters more than what happens at the peak. Against that backdrop, a few principles tend to hold.\n\n*   **Your regular contributions are working harder than you think:** Every dollar going into a falling market buys more units than it did six weeks ago. Some investors benefit from recoveries by continuing to contribute through the drawdown.\n\n*   **Check your allocation, not your balance:** If the past month has felt genuinely alarming rather than just uncomfortable, check whether your current portfolio reflects your risk tolerance.\n\n*   **The number on your screen isn’t necessarily a loss yet:** A portfolio that is down 8-10% on paper is what someone would pay for those assets today, in this specific window of maximum uncertainty. Selling converts a temporary mark into a permanent one.\n\n*   **Consider whether volatility has created an entry point:** Corrections are uncomfortable when you’re already invested. They look different when you have cash sitting on the sidelines. If you’ve been waiting to put money to work, a broad market down 10% could be a better starting price than one at its peak.\n\n*   **Reduce the daily noise:** While the severity and duration of this conflict will influence market direction, those outcomes are inherently hard to predict. For investors, the focus should be on staying informed without reacting to every headline.\n\nNone of this is to say the conflict resolves quickly, or that markets won’t fall further before they recover. \n\nHistory shows that in uncertain periods, the investors who tend to come through best are not necessarily those who react fastest, but those who remain disciplined, keep perspective and stay focused on their long-term goals.\n\nDisclaimer:\n\n_The information contained in this article is general information only and does not take into account any person’s financial objectives, situation or needs.

**If you’d prefer to listen to this week’s edition in podcast form, please click the player below:**\n\n**Global week in review: Hope reigns supreme!**\n-----------------------------------------------\n\nUS stocks rose further last week – the sixth weekly gain in a row – with ongoing hopes for a US-Iran peace deal despite continuing skirmishes in the Strait of Hormuz. One sign of optimism was the decline in oil prices. A stronger than expected US payrolls report on Friday also boosted stocks. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/chart1-1.png)\n\nYet another week in the lingering Iran war and hope springs eternal. As I’ve regularly noted, the global economy is facing a race against time – settle the Iran war and re-open the Strait before the lagged impact of the lack of new supply jacks up prices. So far at least, inventory run-down, some demand restricting measures across Asia and persistent hopes for a peace deal has limited lift in near-term oil price futures – but the clock is still ticking.\n\nBoth sides are exchanging peace proposals – at the same time as they’re firing on each other’s ships! But there seems enough wiggle room on both sides that hopefully a deal can be done soon – though the outcome is unlikely to be much better for the US than the Obama-era deal that Trump tore up in 2018. \n\nThe current environment reminds me of the COVID-crisis – after an initial sell-off due to lockdowns, markets kept rallying despite abysmal economic data, due to the ongoing hope of a vaccine and economic re-opening. Markets can endure near-term sticks it seems if there remains an attractive carrot ahead of them.  \n\nIn other news, April US payrolls were better than expected with a 115k gain in jobs compared to a market expectation of 65k. The unemployment rate held steady at 4.3%. The resilience of the US economy remains impressive. \n\nGlobal week ahead: Iran and CPI    \n-----------------------------------\n\nMarkets remain in limbo – waiting on a peace deal. As the consequences of no deal seem catastrophic for both sides, it’s hard to imagine they can’t/won’t agree.\n\nYet the week begins with news that Iran is refusing US demands to dismantle its nuclear facilities and suspend uranium enrichment for 20 years. Other sticking points are what to do with Iran’s stockpile of already high-enriched uranium (most of which was developed when Trump tore up the existing deal in his first term).  \n\nKey US economic data this week include the consumer price index (CPI) for April. Core prices are expected to lift 0.3%, which would see annual growth lift from 2.6% to 2.7%. The US CPI is currently running quite a bit lower than the Fed’s preferred measure of underlying inflation – the core consumption deflator (PCE) – due to the former’s higher weight to housing inflation, which is at present quite soft. Annual core PCE inflation is currently 3.2%.\n\nGlobal equity trends: US outperforms\n------------------------------------\n\nGlobal equity markets have now staged a remarkable 6-week rebound on peace talk hopes. Overall global stocks and the S&P 500 are now trading comfortably _above_ the levels prevailing just before the Iran war began. But it’s not just peace-talk hopes, but a renewed infatuation with the AI trade – especially hardware companies. \n\nAccordingly, the US, Japan and emerging markets continue to do best in the rebound so far, whereas Europe, Australia and small caps have not. The Nasdaq 100 has shot the lights out. Korea is also soaring, thanks to the market’s love of hardware companies such as Samsung benefiting from the AI boom – as, unlike software companies, they’re at less apparent risk from disruption.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/chart2-1.png)\n\n**Australia review: RBA acts and Budget in focus**\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nLocal stocks underperformed global stocks again last week, with the RBA delivering on its threat to raise interest rates for the third time in a row. Concerns around capital gains tax increases in this week’s Federal Budget did not help.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/chart3-1.png)\n\nIt’s been a sorry tale for local stocks in recent weeks – which have failed to benefit all that much from the global market rebound. A low technology exposure, along with RBA and Federal Budget concerns, have been major drags.\n\nIf there was any solace in last week’s RBA rate hike news, it was that the Bank might be kind enough to pause at the next meeting in June – just to assess the impact of its work to date. \n\nMy base case is that by the time the August meeting comes around, the Iran war will have ended and oil prices will have retreated further, lessening the pressure on the RBA to hike further. Potential disruption in the property market following this week’s Federal Budget might also give the RBA reason to hold off.\n\nTwo threats to my view are:\n\n1.  The RBA’s forecasts of weaker growth and easing inflation factor in market expectations for one to two further rate hikes.\n2.  Due to a compression in banking margins, the average variable mortgage rate is now around 0.5% lower than it was the last time the cash rate was 4.35% in 2023 and 2024. \n\nIn good news for the RBA (albeit not retailers) last week’s household spending indicator suggested consumer spending was fairly subdued in the March quarter, with real growth of only 0.7%. \n\nBudget – tax grab or boost for intergenerational equity?\n--------------------------------------------------------\n\nI’ll do a full analysis of the Budget on Wednesday, but the rumours suggest a fairly aggressive attack on negative gearing and capital gains. This will apply to all assets it seems – such as property and shares – with an exemption only for new properties. At this stage, there appears no exemption for investments in entrepreneurial growth companies.\n\nModelling suggests that the shift to inflation-indexing of capital gains – rather than the 50% discount – will increase the effective capital gains tax the longer you hold an investment and the higher the return it attracts.\n\nAs an example, an investment returning 7% in capital gains each year held for 10 years will attract a 15% CGT under the current system, but 21.3% under inflation-indexing (assuming inflation of 2.5% p.a. and a marginal income tax rate of 30%). \n\n*   If the annual return was 10%, the CGT under the current system would remain 15% but lift to 24.7% under inflation-indexing. \n*   If the 7% returning investment is held for 30 years, the CGT under inflation-indexing rises to 25%, though stays at 15% under the current system. \n\nBoomer investors will be hurt for sure, but so will younger investors – especially as they have longer investment timeframes and tend to hold higher-growth investments.   \n\nAs for the property market, the expected tilt favouring new property will only succeed in driving up land values and developer profits (due to supply constraints, the more favourable tax benefits will be quickly capitalised into prices), while there’s also a risk of a leap in rents on existing properties as investors exit the market and demand higher compensation to offset the less favourable tax benefits.\n\nAlso getting media coverage is an effective doubling of the capital gains tax on entrepreneurial companies from 25% to a world-beating 50%! \n\nAll up, the idea that these changes will boost ‘intergenerational equity’ seems a stretch – there may be several unintended consequences that actually make economic conditions even harder for the young (higher rents, high new property prices, reduced returns on longer-term investments and the hobbling of the start-up/entrepreneurial sector).\n\nIt’s true that current tax incentives favour gearing up into property especially – but a key problem is the high 47% top marginal tax rate which kicks in at a relatively low income by global standards and is considerably higher than the corporate tax rate. That just invites creative tax planning – the impetus for which won’t change after tomorrow. True tax reform would have involved effective tax-base broadening (as we’re likely to see tomorrow) along with a reduction in marginal income tax rates. \n\nLocal equity market trends: Technology/small caps bottoming out?\n----------------------------------------------------------------\n\nThe Iran war initially was not kind to high-beta local exposures such as technology and small caps. That said, the relative performance of both these areas has bottomed out in recent weeks, while resource company relative performance has resumed at the expense of financials.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/chart4-1.png)\n\n**Australia week ahead: Budget**\n--------------------------------\n\nI’ve given my 2 cents on apparent key Budget changes above – we await the actual details tomorrow!\n\nOther reports of note tomorrow include the National Australia Bank and Westpac surveys of business and consumer sentiment respectively. Both business and consumer confidence slumped in the previous reports and – apart from Iran peace-talk hopes – it’s hard to see much reason for a solid rebound anytime soon. \n\nAlso of note will be the Q1 wage price index on Wednesday. Given labour market tightness and inflation concerns, there’s an understandable interest in what wage growth is doing. Bottom line: it’s firm but not red hot. A quarterly wage gain of 0.8% is expected, in line with that of recent quarters and keeping annual growth at just over 3%. That said, wage growth at this modest pace would be more tolerable were labour productivity growth not so weak. \n\n**Have a great week!**","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3519,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2446,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

**If you’d prefer to listen to this week’s edition in podcast form, please click the player below:**\n\n**Global week in review: Good profits, but the Strait is still closed** \n------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nUS stocks rose further last week – the 5th weekly gain in a row – despite a rebound in oil prices and the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz.  Strong Q1 corporate earnings and ongoing hopes for a US-Iran peace deal supported stocks.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/chart1.png)\n\nUS economic data took a back seat again last week, although the results were generally market supportive.\n\nAt 2.0% annualised, US Q1 GDP growth came in a little weaker-than-expected – but still not bad. Consumer spending remained subdued at a below 2% annualised pace, though GDP growth picked up from the 0.5% annualised rate in Q4, thanks to a rebound in public spending (with a re-opening of the Federal Government) and a further ramp-up in business investment due to the AI boom.\n\nMarch consumer prices – as measured by the consumption deflator – were in line with market expectations, with core prices up 0.3% in the month and 3.2% over the year.  \n\nOther key news related to Iran and earnings. The bad news is that the Strait of Hormuz is still closed, with no peace deal in sight. The looming reality of a supply-side crunch led to a rebound in oil prices last week.  Indeed, as noted, the longer the Strait stays closed, the greater the inevitability of a major supply-side energy crunch as remaining inventories are run down. The clock is ticking. \n\nBut the good news is that peace proposals are at least being bandied about – the US blockage of Iranian ships seems to be encouraging Iran to want to make a deal. Yet so far at least, Trump does not seem under sufficient political pressure to make a less-than-perfect deal – maybe higher oil prices in the coming weeks could change his mind. The costs of continuing the war are mounting for both sides, and markets are just waiting for one side to blink first.   \n\nMore good news came from the US earnings reporting season. Most of the major Mag-7 results pleased investors last week. Their sales and profits were all generally still strong, despite the heavy ongoing investments in AI.  According to FactSet, 84% of the 63% of S&P 500 companies that have reported Q1’26 earnings so far have beaten market estimates, which is above the long-run average of around 75%.\n\nAs expected, all of the major central banks that met last week decided to leave interest rates on hold. Yet while the US Federal Reserve left rates steady, markets were knocked momentarily by a shift in language towards a more neutral rather than easing policy bias. Yet even though the Fed concedes US inflation is “elevated”, it’s still debating if and when to cut rates further rather than raise them!\n\nGlobal week ahead: Iran and payrolls   \n---------------------------------------\n\nAs stated above, markets are essentially in limbo – there’s no clear pathway to a ceasefire deal which could open the Strait of Hormuz, which means global supply pressures are only likely to intensify in the weeks ahead. Markets will continue to hold out hope for a peace deal soon. \n\nOther key news will be US payroll data on Friday. A moderate 70k April gain in employment is expected, which should keep the unemployment rate steady at 4.3%.\n\nGlobal equity trends: US outperforms\n------------------------------------\n\nGlobal equity markets have now staged a remarkable 5-week rebound on peace talk hopes. Indeed, overall global stocks and the S&P 500 are now trading _above_ the levels prevailing just before the Iran war began.\n\nThe US, Japan and emerging markets have done reasonably well in this rebound so far, whereas Europe, Australia and small caps have not. The Nasdaq 100 has shot the lights out. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/chart2.png)\n\n**Australia in review: Inflation fear**\n---------------------------------------\n\nLocal stocks underperformed global stocks again last week, with a firm Q1 inflation report adding to concern over an RBA rate hike tomorrow.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/chart3.png)\n\nAlthough the March quarter consumer price index (CPI) report was a touch softer than feared, it was not good enough to convincingly rule out the risk of an RBA rate hike this week.  The all-important trimmed mean measure of underlying inflation rose 0.8% in the quarter (market 0.9%), which dragged up the annual rate from 3.4% to 3.5%. \n\nOne encouraging sign is that the rate of growth in quarterly trimmed mean inflation has at least decelerated over the past three quarters – from 1.0% in Q3 ’25, 0.9% in Q4 ’25, to 0.8% in Q1’26. And that’s despite a 35% surge in petrol prices in the month of March.\n\nLocal equity market trends: Technology/small caps bottoming out?\n----------------------------------------------------------------\n\nThe Iran war had initially not been kind to high-beta local exposures such as technology and small caps. That said, the relative performance of both these areas has bottomed out in recent weeks, while resource company relative performance has resumed at the expense of financials.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/chart4.png)\n\n**Australia week ahead: RBA to likely hike**\n--------------------------------------------\n\nWith underlying inflation still running above the RBA’s 2-3% target, tight labour and product markets, and the ever-present risk of higher petrol prices, the RBA still seems likely to raise rates this week.\n\nOf course, it’s not a done deal however, there is uncertainty of how the gaggle of independent Board members will vote. Recall that back in March, several Board members voted to delay a rate hike until May – they may feel a rate hike is now not needed given the March move. The slump in both business and consumer confidence last month could also weigh on RBA thinking.\n\nMy view, however, is that the added upside inflation risk from the extended Iran war means most Board members will now concede the need for another rate hike – even though they may not have felt that a month ago. Weak confidence is regrettable but necessary if the economy is to slow down again and help rein in inflation.  \n\n**Have a great week!**","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3513,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2434,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

**If you’d prefer to listen to this week’s edition in podcast form, please click the below player:**\n\n**Global week in review: The Strait still closed** \n---------------------------------------------------\n\nUS stocks have on balance edged higher since Friday’s close on 17 April, reflecting US-Iran ceasefire hopes and a continued solid earnings outlook.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/chart1-3.png)\n\nGlobal markets continued to be buffeted last week by on-again off-again peace talks. The major development was Trump’s announcement of an indefinite ceasefire (he’s grown tired of extending two-week deadlines!) due to an apparent fracturing of the Iranian negotiating team.\n\nFractured or not, Iran soon responded by offering a partial deal, whereby both sides agreed to unblock the Strait of Hormuz with an agreement on Iran’s nuclear activity negotiated later. \n\nAt the time of writing, the US appears to have rejected the deal. That’s perhaps not surprising, as this would only take us back to the pre-war position – with no other progress on the nuclear question despite decimation of Iran’s conventional military capacity.\n\nSo markets are left in limbo. The bad news is the Strait is still closed, with a major global supply side crunch looming once existing inventories are depleted. The good news is both sides still appear to want to make a deal, but the game of brinkmanship remains. It’s a question of which side will suffer the most pain from the Strait being closed – for Trump it may be a case that oil prices need to lurch higher and/or equity markets sink further before the TACO trade comes back into play.\n\nAlso helping support equity markets are early signs of another bumper US earnings reporting season. According to FactSet, 84% of the 28% of S&P 500 companies that have reported Q1’26 earnings so far have beaten market estimates, which is above the long-run average of around 75%.\n\nAs strange as this sounds, the weekend’s third apparent assassination attempt on President Trump should not cause too many ripples for markets. The would-be lone-wolf assassin was quickly subdued and business in Washington seems likely to return to normal fairly soon.       \n\nGlobal week ahead: Iran, earnings & inflation  \n-----------------------------------------------\n\nAs stated above, markets are essentially in limbo – there’s no clear pathway to a ceasefire deal which could open the Strait of Hormuz, which means global supply pressures are only likely to intensify in the weeks ahead. \n\nSo far at least, the rundown in existing inventories (from strategic reserves and ships already at sea before the Strait was closed), the deployment of alternate trade routes and some early demand destruction has limited upside pricing pressure. But, if nothing changes, higher prices and more demand destruction seem likely in the weeks ahead. This is true not just for oil but for a range of commodities, including LNG and fertilizer.\n\nIn other news, most of America’s major tech companies report earnings this week, including Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon and Apple. My sense is that fears of massive AI disruption to the major players is dissipating, as AI is allowing them to cut costs (as evident from regular job cut announcements) while demand from their own customers is (so far at least) holding up.     \n\nOn the economic front, US inflation data on Friday is likely to show this remain a simmering issue, albeit down the ranking of market worries at present. The core consumption deflator is expected to rise 0.3% in March, taking annual core inflation to 3.2% from 3.0%. The headline measure (which includes energy prices) will naturally be worse, with an expected monthly rise of 0.7%, lifting annual inflation from 2.8% to 3.5%.  \n\nThe Fed also meets this week but is expected to leave rates firmly on hold. A range of other central banks also meet – in Europe, the UK, Japan and Canada – and are also expected to leave rates steady. \n\nGlobal equity trends: US outperforms\n------------------------------------\n\nGlobal equity markets have now staged a remarkable one month rebound on peace-talk hopes. Indeed, overall global stocks and the S&P 500 are now trading _above_ the levels prevailing just before the Iran war began.\n\nThe US, Japan and emerging markets have done reasonably well in this rebound so far, whereas Europe and Australia have not. The NASDAQ-100 has shot the lights out. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/chart3-4.png)\n\n**Australia in review: Inflation fear**\n---------------------------------------\n\nWith limited local economic news last week, local stocks sagged further. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/chart2-5.png)\n\nWith ongoing upward pressure on energy prices, the local market remains fearful of this week’s Q1 consumer price index report – which is likely to be uncomfortably high and confirm another likely rate hike by the RBA next month. In turn, this is hurting the local corporate earnings outlook.\n\nAt the same time, Federal budget speculation builds: recent reports suggest a new gas tax has been mothballed, whereas property investors remain in the government’s sights.  \n\nLocal equity market trends: Technology/small caps bottoming out?\n----------------------------------------------------------------\n\nThe Iran war had initially not been kind to high-beta local exposures such as technology and small caps. That said, the relative performance of both these areas has bottomed out in recent weeks, while resource company relative performance has resumed at the expense of financials.  ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/chart4-3.png)\n\n**Australia week ahead: Iran** \n-------------------------------\n\nQuarterly inflation tomorrow is the big story locally this week.\n\nAs it stands, the market expects a 0.9% quarterly gain in trimmed mean inflation, which would lift annual underlying inflation from 3.4% to 3.5%.  The Australian Bureau of Statistics – now focused on the monthly report – may well take great delight in burying this one key statistic in an obscure spreadsheet once again.  \n\n**Have a great week!**","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3459,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2410,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

**If you’d prefer to listen to this week’s edition in podcast form, please click the below player:**\n\n**Global week in review: Optimism but Strait still closed** \n------------------------------------------------------------\n\nGlobal stocks rose further last week, reflecting hopes around on-again off-again US-Iran peace talks. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/chart1-2.png)\n\nGlobal markets continued to be buffeted last week by on-again off-again peace talks. The week started on a dour note, with news of the failure of weekend peace talks. But Trump’s heavy hints that talks were ongoing supported market hopes through the remainder of the week.\n\nIn theory, a two-week ceasefire deal was _supposed_ to have included a re-opening of the Strait of Hormuz. But within 24 hours of saying the Strait was open, Iran said it was closed again – due to the US’s own blockade of Iranian linked ships. At the time of writing, there’s news of the US seizing an Iranian ship, for which Iran has vowed retaliation. Iran has also denied US reports suggesting talks were set to resume.  \n\nSuffice to say confusion reigns supreme! If there’s one guiding light for markets, it’s the idea that the longer the war drags on and the higher oil prices go, the greater the political pressure on President Trump to cut a deal. In short, in TACO we trust – though patience is being tested. \n\nGlobal week ahead: Brinkmanship continues \n------------------------------------------\n\nGlobal events will remain almost exclusively focused on Iran. Nothing much else matters in global markets at present.  \n\nAt either extreme, we seem to face a best and worst case scenario this week.\n\n*   **The worst case scenario** is Iranian attacks on US military ships, potentially even sinking one with causalities. That could spark an “all bets are off” resumption of US/Israel missile strikes, potentially including Iranian energy infrastructure, which in turn could spark Iranian attacks on energy and water infrastructure across the Middle East.\n*   **The best case scenario** is no tit-for-tat ship attacks and an agreement to hold more talks.  \n\nIn other news, we’re entering the US Q1 reporting season with many major tech names due to report next week. The NASDAQ-100 has been on a tear in recent weeks, reflecting both peace talk optimism but also potentially a sense that AI disruption fears for the major players may be overdone.  Tech companies are clearly cutting workers and costs, but whether they face a major loss of customers – or pricing power – due to AI remains to be seen.  \n\nGlobal equity trends: US outperforms\n------------------------------------\n\nGlobal equity markets have staged a three-week rebound on peace-talk hopes. Indeed, overall global stocks and the S&P 500 are now trading _above_ the levels prevailing just before the Iran war began.\n\nWhat’s also of interest is that US stocks fell the least during the initial sell-off and have so far rebounded the hardest, with the NASDAQ-100 ending last week 6.9% above its weekly close on 27 February. Japanese and European stocks are still a little below their pre-war peaks, as is the case in Australia. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/chart2-3.png)\n\n**Australia in review: Confidence collapse** \n---------------------------------------------\n\nLocal stocks lagged the global rebound last week, not helped by news of a collapse in local consumer and business confidence.\n\nWeaker energy stocks on peace-talk optimism and concerns around local banks also dragged on the market. Westpac last week announced an increase in bad debt provisions due to an expected softening in the economy. NAB this morning has released a similar warning.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/chart3-2.png)\n\nOther key local news last week were the Westpac and NAB surveys of consumer and business confidence respectively. Perhaps not surprisingly, both surveys revealed a large drop in confidence by both groups during March, reflecting the surge in petrol prices and related interest rate fears. The NAB measure of business conditions, at least, held steady.\n\nAlmost holding steady was the labour market, with news last week that employment grew by 17k in March – largely in line with market expectations – and enough to keep the unemployment rate at 4.3%.\n\nAll up, despite the knee-jerk collapse in confidence measures, actual economic activity is still holding up – leaving the RBA on track to raise rates again next month. \n\nLocal equity market trends: Technology bounce\n---------------------------------------------\n\nThe Iran war had initially not been kind to high-beta local exposures such as technology and small caps. That said, technology enjoyed a solid bounce last week – and small caps to a lesser degree – while the financial sector sold off.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/chart4-2.png)\n\n**Australia week ahead: Iran** \n-------------------------------\n\nThere’s little major local economic news this week, with developments in the Iran war to remain the major focus.\n\nAlso of note will be any further hints about the May budget and whether other banks also announce higher bad debt provisions.\n\n**Have a great week!**","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3450,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2392,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

**If you’d prefer to listen to this week’s edition in podcast form, please click the below player:**\n\n**Global week in review: Iran hopes wax and wane**\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nGlobal stocks, on balance, rose last week, helped by US President Donald Trump’s earlier suggestion that Iranian hostilities would end soon and that other countries would be left to try and open the Strait of Hormuz.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/chart1.png)\n\nThat hope, sadly, did not last.\n\nLater in the week, Trump threatened in a national address to “[bring them back to the Stone Ages](https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/4/2/bomb-back-to-the-stone-age-us-history-of-threats-and-carpet-bombing)” if it did not open the Strait. He followed that up with yet another 48 hour ultimatum to [agree to a deal](https://www.ft.com/content/35346eaf-0869-4706-8ebb-2d171e15266f?syn-25a6b1a6=1), or the US would begin to target key infrastructure such as bridges and electricity plants. Trump is playing both good and bad cop, often within the same speech!\n\nSo far at least, Iran has not budged – perhaps once again aiming to test Trump’s resolve. The deadline expires at 8pm tonight New York time (10am tomorrow morning Sydney time). The clock is ticking once again.\n\nThe frustrating aspect of all this is that I suspect Iran would reopen the Strait once the US declared victory and stopped the attacks. Closing the Strait was only ever a means of putting political pressure on Trump by jacking up global oil prices – once the US threat ends, so does the need to apply this pressure. If Iran agreed to open the Strait in exchange for the US ending hostilities, would that be enough for Trump? Maybe, maybe not. Either way, neither side so far wants to be seen as the one caving in.\n\nOf course, there’s a chance that, in the next 24 hours, Trump could announce yet another reprieve, perhaps because of alleged signals from Iran that it (once again?) desperately wants to talk.\n\n**If not, and allowing for likely Iranian counter strikes, the world faces the grim prospect of widespread destruction of key Middle East energy, transport and, potentially, water infrastructure.**\n\nMore serious damage to regional oil production facilities (which account for 40% of global oil exports) would mean supply constraints would last far longer, likely causing a further surge in oil prices and global recession. This is the fire Trump is playing with.\n\nGiven the Iran news, Friday’s stronger-than-expected US payrolls result was lost in the noise. The shame is that, were it not for the Iran drama, we’d be celebrating a remarkably resilient US economy – with a 186k bounce back in employment during March after a 129k slump in February, which was partly related to bad weather and strike activity.\n\nThe other notable development last week was outgoing US Fed Chair Jerome Powell noting that long-term inflation expectations remain well anchored, which led markets to scale back its (in my view, ill-founded) fear of a near term rate hike.\n\nGlobal equity trends\n--------------------\n\nApart from the energy sector, there are few outright global winners from the war in Iran. Japan and emerging markets – the winning trades just prior to the war – have been hit hardest.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/chart2.png)\n\n**Global week ahead: Iran and US inflation**\n--------------------------------------------\n\nIran will remain the centre of attention this week, with markets nervously awaiting Trump’s latest deadline – and the extent of Iranian retaliation should the US begin striking energy infrastructure.\n\nMuch like payrolls last week, ordinarily important US economic data – this time inflation – will not get much focus this week. That is also because the March and February readings for the CPI and PCED, respectively, will be treated as ‘old news’ given the energy cost spike now bearing down on the economy.\n\n**Australia in review: still-firm local data**\n----------------------------------------------\n\nLocal shares also enjoyed a bounce last week on Iran hopes.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/chart3.png)\n\nWe received a smattering of local economic news last week – credit growth, house prices, building approvals and job vacancies. Much of these remained firm.\n\nAlthough house prices continued to edge lower in Sydney and Melbourne, this was offset by continued strength in the other, cheaper capital cities. Building approvals also bounced back strongly and, looking through monthly volatility, the trend remains upward. Although down from their post-COVID peak, job vacancies have stabilised over recent quarters at a still-high level.\n\nAll of this continues to suggest the local economy is reasonably resilient, which would allow the RBA to remain resolutely focused on upside inflation risks.\n\nLocal equity market trends\n--------------------------\n\nThe Iran war has not been kind to high-beta local exposures such as technology and small caps. Relative performance of the larger cap resource and financial sectors has been choppy, but both have broadly held up.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/chart4.png)\n\n**Australia week ahead: household spending**\n--------------------------------------------\n\nThe only local data of note this week is the newly established household spending indicator – which is broader in scope than the retail sales report it has replaced. Overall, spending is ticking along, albeit not especially strongly once inflation and population growth are allowed for.\n\n**Have a great week!**","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3440,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2372,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

player:**\n----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n_Owing to travel commitments, no charts are available in this week’s (abbreviated) blog._\n\n**Global week in review: Iran hopes flicker**\n---------------------------------------------\n\nGlobal stocks remained under pressure last week, with early hopes for a ‘TACO moment’ soon replaced by confusion and concern about whether the Iran war will end anytime soon.\n\nLast week began with a sense of dread, following US President Donald Trump’s weekend threat to begin targeting Iranian electricity infrastructure if the Strait of Hormuz was not opened within 48 hours. But as the deadline approached, Trump issued an 11th hour reprieve on Monday (US time), delaying any assault and announcing that talks had begun to end hostilities. \n\nIran, however, soon pushed back suggesting this was “[fake news](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zFyqwc_kHQ)“. By week’s end, it was clear the two sides _were_ talking (for instance, [through intermediaries](https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-03-27/pakistan-uniquely-positioned-to-become-us-iran-broker/106501884) such as Pakistan). US troops are still heading towards the region, and Iran continues to strike selected targets. By the end of the week, we remain in a state of flux: Trump has blinked but the Iranians don’t yet seem overly willing to allow him a face-saving exit.\n\nAccordingly, global equities ended the week lower while oil prices firmed. Some oil is getting through the Strait of Hormuz, but not enough to ease mounting pressure on global supply. So far, the supply from shipments that had already cleared the Strait before hostilities broke out is still quenching a thirsty global market – but this will soon run out if new supply does not get through. The clock is ticking. \n\n**Global week ahead: Iran and US payrolls**\n-------------------------------------------\n\nIran will remain the centre of attention this week, with markets awaiting news on any progress in the talks. There’s still a risk of things worsen before they improve – with the worst case scenario involving tit-for-tat attacks on energy infrastructure and a deepening conflict involving US “[boots on the ground](https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2026/03/28/trump-iran-ground-troops-marines/)“. Given the likely surge in oil prices (and collapse in Trump’s popularity), this still seems unlikely – but he’ll still need a credible way to claim victory and move on otherwise. \n\nElsewhere, US payrolls will be released on Friday. After a surprise 92k drop in February, US employment is expected to bounce back but only by a modest 56k in March. This would keep unemployment steady at 4.4%. Another surprisingly weak result would add to concerns over the economy and increase political pressure on Trump to extricate himself from the Iran war as soon as possible. \n\n**Australia in review: soft February monthly CPI**\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nThe main local highlight last week was the February monthly consumer price index (CPI) report. The report was a touch [better than expected](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/feb-2026-cpi/), with annual trimmed mean inflation at 3.3% (market 3.4%), which was in line with the downwardly revised January result of 3.3% (previous 3.4%).\n\nOf course, this followed an initially firm January report and again highlighted the difficulty in assessing monthly inflation trends given still-uncertain seasonal patterns. The RBA will take only a little solace from the result and remain focused on the late-April March quarter CPI report. As it stands, the market assigns around a 70% probability to another May rate hike (which is my base case).\n\n**Australia week ahead: RBA minutes, job vacancies**  \n------------------------------------------------------\n\nWe’ll potentially learn more about the RBA’s recent decision to raise interest rates with the release of the meeting’s minutes tomorrow.\n\nOf particular interest is the extent to which the March decision really amounted to a bring forward of the May decision, given Governor Michele Bullock suggested in her press conference that all Board members agreed on the need to raise rates further – but that only some wanted to delay the decision to May.\n\nWe’ll also get a sprinkling of local economic releases, including house prices, job vacancies, building approvals and private credit growth. Overall, these reports are likely to suggest underlying demand remains fairly firm – allowing the RBA to remain focused on upside inflation risks. \n\n**Have a great week!**","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3422,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2352,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

years of low inflation, the environment investors have grown used to is starting to shift.\n\nFor most of the past two decades, inflation was low enough that many investors didn’t need to think about it. But that backdrop may now be shifting.\n\nTreasury modelling [flagged this month](https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/australias-treasury-forecasts-higher-inflation-bigger-gdp-hit-iran-war-new-2026-03-18/) that the Iran conflict could push inflation to 5% or above. Both the RBA and the Federal Reserve have revised their inflation forecasts higher this year, with the RBA now expecting inflation to remain above its 2-3% target until early 2027.\n\nThe question isn’t how long this spike lasts – no one knows that for sure. It’s whether your long-term plan is built for a world where inflation runs higher than it has for most of the past two decades.\n\n**The part of investing that doesn’t show up on your statement**\n----------------------------------------------------------------\n\nInflation doesn’t register as a loss. It erodes what your money can buy over time, and it compounds in the same way returns do – except in the wrong direction.\n\nYour real return is what you earn after inflation. For example, a portfolio growing at 6% a year sounds strong on paper. At 2.5% inflation, the real return is 3.5%. At 4% inflation, it falls to 2%.¹ That difference, sustained over time, can materially change the wealth you end up with, even after taxes and fees.\n\nA higher assumed rate of inflation may also move the goalposts on your FIRE number retirement target. That nominal $1 million figure would now be $1 million plus the rate of inflation meaning the number you need to reach keeps rising, which means the return your portfolio needs to deliver rises with it.\n\nThe response to that isn’t panic – it’s preparation.\n\n**Three areas worth considering**\n---------------------------------\n\nFor younger investors, time is still the most powerful tool available; markets recover and compounding works in your favour the longer you stay invested. Some investors adopt dollar-cost averaging into a growth-oriented managed portfolio like the Betashares Direct [High Growth portfolio](https://www.betashares.com.au/direct/managed-portfolios?portfolio=core-high-growth) or the [All Growth portfolio](https://www.betashares.com.au/direct/managed-portfolios?portfolio=core-all-growth). More information on both portfolios can be found on the Betashares Direct platform.\n\nFor investors looking to add inflation resilience to an existing portfolio, there are particular assets that may help.\n\nThere is historical evidence that gold has been able to preserve most of its purchasing power through inflationary periods when paper assets have struggled. Betashares Gold Bullion Currency Hedged ETF uses hedging to reduce the impact of AUD/USD movements (before fees and expenses), allowing returns to more closely reflect changes in the gold price in USD.²","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3425,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":355,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":604,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":41,"attributes":{"symbol":"QAU","name":"Gold bullion ETF - Currency Hedged","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Gain currency-hedged exposure to the performance of gold bullion","description_long":null,"fee":0.59,"createdAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.655Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:55.610Z","publishedAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.654Z","symbol_openfigi":null,"tags":{"data":[{"id":17,"attributes":{"tag":"mining","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-03-26T22:44:49.499Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.128Z","mutations":"miners,mines,extraction"}},{"id":127,"attributes":{"tag":"gold","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.951Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T07:12:47.821Z","mutations":"bullion,vault,bgl"}},{"id":216,"attributes":{"tag":"gxld","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:13.698Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:03.108Z","mutations":null}},{"id":225,"attributes":{"tag":"bboz","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:14.206Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:03.054Z","mutations":null}},{"id":214,"attributes":{"tag":"ghld","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:13.670Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:03.546Z","mutations":null}}]}}}}}]},{"id":3426,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":2353,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Royalty companies are businesses that own royalty streams on commodities or other assets, collecting a percentage of revenue rather than bearing production costs.

**_“The ChatGPT moment for robotics is here. Breakthroughs in physical AI are unlocking entirely new applications.”_**\n> \n> _— Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of Nvidia_\n\nThe global robotics industry is undergoing one of the most profound structural shifts in its history. What was once a market dominated by factory floor automation is expanding rapidly into a new generation of intelligent machines capable of operating in dynamic, human-oriented environments.\n\nGlobally, the robotic market is projected to reach US$111 billion by 2030¹, driven by persistent labour shortages, accelerating AI adoption, and better unit economics from increased competition. Goldman Sachs forecasts the global humanoid robot market alone could reach US$38 billion by 2035, up more than sixfold from a previous projection of US$6 billion².\n\n### **Exhibit 1: Robots took centre stage throughout the CCTV Lunar New Year Gala in China** ![Humanoid robots perform advanced martial arts at Chinese New Year gala](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/humanoid-robots-perform-advanced-martial-arts-at-c.jpeg)\n\nStepping into the real world\n----------------------------\n\nFor much of the last decade, the AI story was primarily software driven; however, rapid improvements in embodied AI technology have enabled robots to operate in real world environments, moving away from research demos to commercial deployment.\n\nMercedes-Benz is using Nvidia’s Omniverse platform to design and optimise their auto manufacturing processes in a fully simulated environment before deploying in the real world.\n\nSchaeffler Group, a German manufacturer of rolling element bearings, is already using [two-legged robots](https://www.wsj.com/business/south-carolina-schaeffler-plant-robots-d56c91d0) to carry 25-pound baskets of bearing components back and forth for hours straight.\n\nWhile Elon Musk envisions ramping up production of humanoid robot Optimus Gen 3 to 50,000 units this year alone.\n\nUnderpinning these and many other deployments is NVIDIA’s Isaac GR00T N1. N1 was launched in March 2025 as the world’s first open foundation model for generalised humanoid reasoning. The majority of humanoid developers use N1 as the common AI ‘brain’ for their robots.\n\nClearly, the demand for physical robotics is manifesting in areas of the economy where workflows are often considered monotonous or dangerous, including high-energy power plants and logistics warehouses and manufacturing facilities. Roughly 16,000 humanoid robots were installed globally by the end of 2025³, with annual shipments forecast to reach 115,000 units by 2027⁴ — a near-sevenfold increase in just two years.\n\nA key driver of physical robotics are global labour shortages which are already estimated at over 50 million people⁵, with Germany alone facing a projected 7 million worker deficit by 2035⁶. Falling fertility rates and ageing populations are contributing to structurally smaller workforces that are expected to create upward pressure on labour costs. These demographic trends are pushing firms towards directing more capital towards automation and robotics solutions.\n\n### Robots are getting cheaper – fast\n\nThe cost of building a single humanoid robot has fallen dramatically. From anywhere between US$150,000 and US$500,000 just a few years ago, manufacturing costs dropped approximately 40% between 2022 and 2023 alone⁷, driven by cheaper components shared with mature electric vehicle supply chains and improving manufacturing techniques.\n\nThe best example of what this means in practice came in July 2025, when Chinese manufacturer Unitree launched its R1 humanoid at just US$5,900⁸. This follows their own G1 model at US$13,500 and H1 at US$90,000⁹, illustrating how rapidly the market is expanding across consumer, mid-market, and premium tiers.\n\nLooking ahead, Yole Group forecasts the average selling price of a humanoid robot will fall from approximately US$75,000 today to around US$25,000 by 2035¹⁰, driven by increased competition among Chinese OEMs (original equipment manufacturers), continued developments in embodied AI, and broader economies of scale that also brought down the cost of solar panels and EV batteries over time.\n\n### **Exhibit 2: Price range considered viable for broad adoption**\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/RBTZ-1-1400x1042.png)\n\nSource: AlphaWise, Morgan Stanley Research. Likely adopters n=53\n\nImportantly, much of this cost deflation is being driven not by Western incumbents, but by Chinese manufacturers.\n\n### All roads lead to China when it comes to robotics\n\nChina has strong structural advantages when it comes to manufacturing and hardware supply chains, built over decades through industries like EV and consumer electronics. Because EV components, motors, batteries, and sensors, are very similar to those used in robotics, many companies pivoted to robot production using mostly domestic parts. As of January 2026, China accounted for two-thirds of global AI-driven robotics patent filings.\n\n### **Exhibit 3: Monthly Patent Applications Mentioning “Humanoid” by Country**\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/RBTZ-2-1400x934.png)\n\nSource: Google Patents, Morgan Stanley Research.

Within China the value of high-tech manufacturing grew by 9.4%, while the output of industrial robots rose by 28% in 2025 alone¹¹. IDC estimates China’s domestic humanoid robot expenditure will surge from US$1.4 billion in 2025 to US$77 billion by 2030¹².\n\n**Exhibit 5: 2024 Industrial Robot Installations (Top 10 Countries)**\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/RBTZ-3-1400x788.png)\n\nSource: International Federation of Robotics, Morgan Stanley Research\n\n### A better way to access the opportunity\n\nFor Australian investors seeking exposure to this structural shift, the Betashares Global Robotics and Artificial Intelligence ETF (ASX: RBTZ) has undergone a timely evolution in response to key development in the Robotics and AI landscape. The following changes took effect from 13 March 2026.\n\n*   **New theme added**: The index now explicitly includes a Humanoid Technology theme and has sharpened its AI definition to focus exclusively on AI that powers physical systems — chips, software, and platforms enabling robotics and autonomous operation.\n*   **China A-share access**: The index now includes companies listed on mainland Chinese exchanges via the Hong Kong Stock Connect program — giving investors direct exposure to some of the most consequential companies in the humanoid robotics value chain that were previously inaccessible. Chinese companies are subject to a 10% cap.\n*   **Pre-revenue companies included**: Recognising that many of the most exciting players next-gen robots and AI are still in early commercial stages, the index now admits pre-revenue companies actively developing relevant technologies, including humanoid and autonomous systems.\n*   **Diversified revenue companies now eligible:** The index also allows up to 10 large, strategically important companies — such as Tesla, Alphabet, and Xiaomi — that may not derive the majority of their revenues from robotics and AI today but are recognised as key contributors to the industry’s development. Each is subject to a 2% individual weight cap and a collective 10% cap.\n\n### **Exhibit 5: Key holdings in the Betashares Global Robotics and Artificial Intelligence ETF (ASX: RBTZ)** ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/word-image-85732-2.png)\n\nSource: Company announcements, Bloomberg, Reuters.

Australia is one of several global equity markets to have pulled back sharply in a short space of time.\n\nGeopolitics has been the most immediate catalyst. Escalating conflict in the Middle East has disrupted energy markets, pushing oil prices above US$110 a barrel and adding to an already fragile global backdrop.\n\nBut markets are reacting to more than the conflict itself. Higher oil prices feed directly into inflation, complicating the picture for central banks which have been cutting them. The RBA raised rates again in a narrow decision earlier this month fearing inflationary pressures from the impact of higher oil prices, while the US Federal Reserve signalled it’s in no hurry to cut rates any time soon.\n\nThe result has been a broad repricing across equity markets. While the trigger may feel specific to this moment, the pattern is familiar. The sell-off that has since followed has been broad and largely indiscriminate (select sectors aside, like energy stocks, which have rallied on higher crude prices).\n\nWriting in [Bassanese Bites](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/rba-to-hike-mar-2026/), our Chief Economist David Bassanese’s base case is that a negotiated resolution remains the most likely outcome. But markets are waiting for confirmation and, until they get it, volatility will be the default setting.\n\nThe potential positive for investors is that geopolitical shocks tend to be short-lived. Research by Hartford Funds found that historically the S&P 500 was higher one year after the onset of conflict [73% of the time](https://www.hartfordfunds.com/practice-management/client-conversations/managing-volatility/military-conflicts-may-rattle-markets-but-not-for-long.html#:~:text=and%20Website%20Support-,Military%20Conflicts%20May%20Rattle%20Markets%2C%20But%20Not%20for%20Long,more%20likely%20a%20positive%20return.), with average one-year returns in the high single digits. Oil-driven shocks can take longer to resolve, but history still favours patience over panic.\n\n**This has happened before**\n----------------------------\n\nA 10% pullback may feel significant in the moment, but it is a recurring feature of markets.\n\nAs we have [written about before](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/history-of-market-corrections/), falls of more than 5% happen roughly once a year on average. Of those that reach 10%, just over half go on to become deeper declines, although the risk is lower when the economy is not heading into recession.\n\nThe most recent comparable moment was Liberation Day in April last year, when Trump’s tariff announcement sent the ASX down 15.8% peak-to-trough in a matter of days. It recovered fully within weeks.\n\nBefore that, investors experienced a 35% fall in the Australian share market in just five weeks during early 2020. Markets recovered to pre-crash levels just 13 months later.\n\nHistory offers some reassurance here. Markets price fear faster than they price recovery – which is why making significant decisions on instinct tends to produce worse results than sitting tight. Corrections also frequently occur without recessions, and those tend to be shallower and shorter. Not every 10% fall becomes a bear market, and when it doesn’t, recoveries have historically been faster and more complete.\n\n**What to do now**\n------------------\n\nIf this is your first correction, here’s the most useful thing to know: your portfolio is not necessarily broken. Companies are still operating, earning and paying dividends in many cases.\n\nWhat’s changed is the price someone is willing to pay for them today. That price is now generally being set by sentiment, interest rate expectations and uncertainty, rather than a collapse in earnings.\n\nWhether it’s your first or your tenth correction, the same principles apply:\n\n*   **Stick to your regular investing plan.** Regular contributions into a falling market mean your dollars buy more units of an ETF than they did a month ago. That’s [dollar-cost averaging](https://www.betashares.com.au/education/dollar-cost-averaging-taking-time-out-of-the-investment-equation/) working in your favour, even if it doesn’t feel that way right now.\n*   **Don’t confuse discomfort with danger.** A growth-heavy portfolio will feel this more acutely than a defensive or balanced one. That’s the trade-off for higher long-term return potential. Volatility isn’t a malfunction; it’s the price of admission.\n*   **Check your risk settings, not your balance.** If this correction has you genuinely rattled, consider whether your current allocation still matches your actual risk tolerance. [Timing the market is a fool’s errand,](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/why-timing-the-market-is-a-fools-errand/) but making sure you’re in the right strategy for the long run is always worth revisiting.\n*   **Think about tactical opportunity.** Corrections can create genuine entry points. Betashares senior investment strategist Cameron Gleeson’s [Iran ETF Playbook](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/iran-etf-playbook/) lays out some tactical opportunities for those investors seeking to take advantage of the correction and who have the risk tolerance to do so.\n*   **Don’t make permanent decisions based on temporary conditions.** Selling a long-term holding during a drawdown locks in a loss and removes you from any potential recovery.\n\nSince its launch in August 2000, the [S&P/ASX 300](https://www.marketindex.com.au/asx300) has returned 8.47% per annum including dividends (as at 27 February 2026). Rate cycles, geopolitical shocks and stretches of uncertainty aren’t detours from that long-run return potential. They’re part of how it’s built.\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3415,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2340,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"This article contains general information only and does not take into account any person’s objectives, financial situation or needs.

However, reflecting Australian dollar strength, global equities posted a small decline in unhedged AUD terms.\n*   Australian equities also saw solid gains, despite a local interest rate hike, a rising Australian dollar (which hurts offshore earnings) and weakness in the technology and consumer discretionary areas. Solid earnings reports helped the major financial and resource sectors, with potentially greater foreign interest also emerging in the local market. \n*   Among defensive assets, gold shone brightly once again, while easing bond yields produced modest positive returns for Australian and global bonds.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, Betashares.

Past performance is not indicative of future performance.  \n\n**Global equities**\n-------------------\n\n*   Global equities continue to grind higher despite a pullback in valuations since October last year, underpinned by continued growth in corporate earnings.\n*   The MSCI All-World Equity Index returned 1.4% in local currency terms, after a 2.5% gain in January. This reflected 1.7% growth in forward earnings, partly offset by a slight 0.4% decline in the price-to-forward earnings ratio to 19.0. \n*   While easing bond yields supported equity valuations (US 10-year yields dropped 0.30% to 3.94%) this was offset by a spike higher in the equity risk premium. \n*   Earnings expectations remain upbeat, with 11.4% expected growth in forward earnings by end-2026.\n*   With valuations elevated, continued market gains are still possible, provided bond yields don’t rise much and/or the current bullish earnings outlook remains in place.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/global-equities-1-1400x1033.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, LSEG, Betashares. Global Equities: MSCI All-Country World Index. Global Bonds: Bloomberg Global Aggregate Bond Index ($A hedged). You cannot invest directly in an index. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.\n\n*   Relative performance within global equities is tending to favour cheaper non-US exposures such as Japan and emerging markets. Energy shares are also performing well. Global technology is no longer a standout performer, although given ongoing solid earnings growth, it has improved in relative valuation terms.\n*   Energy, technology and the US market retain relatively strong  earnings growth expectations, although companies in non-US markets are still forecast to deliver 10% forward earnings growth over the next 12 months.     \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Global-themes-1400x450.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, LSEG, Betashares.

Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.\n\n**Australian shares**\n---------------------\n\n*   As has been the case globally, earnings have largely led the Australian equity market higher since late 2025, although a modest uplift in P/E valuations has been evident in recent months.\n*   The S&P/ASX 200 returned 4.1% in February, reflecting a 1.6% gain in forward earnings and a 2.1% gain in the price-to-forward earnings ratio to 18.7. The stronger lift in P/E valuations of late has largely erased the Australian equity discount to global equities which emerged late last year. \n*   Encouragingly, local earnings expectations continue to rise. Even so, the implied 5.5% growth in Australian forward earnings by the end of 2026 is still less than that expected for global earnings. Weaker expected earnings growth in the financials and energy/materials sectors (compared to global peers) are the main local drags.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/oz-equities-1400x918.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, LSEG, Betashares.

Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.\n\n*   Among the key sectors tracked below, resources remains a standout performer. Along with solid relative performance, resources remain both relatively cheap (to the broader market) and have solid earnings growth expectations. \n*   The recent underperformance of information technology now means the sector is also relatively cheap (in terms of its relative degree of P/E valuation premium to its own 20-year average) while retaining solid earnings growth expectations. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/OZ-themes-1-1400x450.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, LSEG, Betashares.

Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.\n\n**Fixed-rate bond trends**\n--------------------------\n\n*   Local rate hike expectations edged up a little further in February, reflecting a firm January monthly CPI report. Almost two rate hikes  are currently priced for this year, with a full rate hike priced by May. Markets are also attaching some risk (30%) to a rate hike later this month. \n*   In the US, by contrast, rate cut expectations shifted only marginally, with two cuts still expected this year. US bond yields fell, reflecting risk-off sentiment in equity markets around AI disruption. \n*   Easing US bond yields helped lower local 10-year bond yields in February by 0.16% to 4.65% – following their rise from late last year and over January.\n*   Longer-term credit spreads have levelled out in recent months, allowing corporate bonds to continue to modestly outperform government bonds. \n*   A widening in Australian versus global bond yields in recent months has seen local bonds underperform their global peers.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/ozbonds-1400x927.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, Betashares. Australian bonds: Bloomberg AusBond Composite Bond Index; Global Bonds: Bloomberg Global Aggregate Bond Index ($A hedged). \n\n**Australian dollar**\n---------------------\n\n*   The Australian dollar rose a further 2.3% in February against the US dollar, from US 69.6c to US 71.2c – largely reflecting widening short-term interest rate differentials.\n*   Firmer iron ore prices, a weaker US dollar and a notable widening in the short-term interest rate differential against the US have all helped push up the Australian dollar over recent months.\n*   Although iron ore prices and the US dollar have broadly stabilised in recent months, the 12-month forward expected cash rate in Australia (relative to that expected in the United States) has continued to widen. It is now at 1.19%, as at the end of February 2026.      \n*   The divergent central bank outlook, greater US-centric AI concerns and the still relatively expensive US dollar suggest the Australian dollar could strengthen further in coming months. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/A-1400x843.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, LSEG, Betashares.

people couldn’t point to the Strait of Hormuz on a map. But when conflict flared around it last week, oil markets moved faster than they have in years, with the ripple effects reaching Australian investors almost immediately.\n\nHere’s why a narrow stretch of water in the Middle East matters more to your money and life than you might expect.\n\n**A narrow stretch of water**\n-----------------------------\n\nThe Strait of Hormuz sits between Iran and Oman, connecting the Persian Gulf to the open ocean.\n\nAccording to the [International Energy Agency](https://www.iea.org/about/oil-security-and-emergency-response/strait-of-hormuz), an average of 20 million barrels of crude oil and petroleum products passed through it every day in 2025, accounting for around 20% of global oil consumption and a quarter of all seaborne oil trade. Saudi Arabia, Iraq, the UAE, Kuwait and Qatar all rely on it as their primary [export route](https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c78n6p09pzno).\n\nThe problem is that alternatives to the Strait are limited. Only Saudi Arabia and the UAE have pipelines capable of bypassing the Strait, and their combined capacity covers a fraction of normal daily flows. If shipments are significantly disrupted, as they are now, prices rise quickly.\n\nOne measure of that move was the spike seen in the OOO Crude Oil Index Currency Hedged Complex ETF which rose [45% in a single session](https://www.fool.com.au/2026/03/09/oil-rockets-past-us100-as-iran-war-escalates-this-asx-oil-etf-is-surging/), the largest one-day gain ever recorded for an ASX-listed ETF. However, it should be said that the following day, OOO fell 23% the following day – highlighting just how volatile energy markets can be.\n\n**This is not a new story**\n---------------------------\n\nThe scale of this week’s move was unusual but the nature of it was not. Oil prices have spiked during geopolitical crises many times over the past 50 years. The pattern tends to be consistent: uncertainty about supply sends prices higher, often well before the full picture is clear.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/word-image-85313-1.png)\n\nSource: U.S. Energy Information Administration via Federal Reserve of St. Louis. Data runs from 15 May 1987 to 27 February 2026.\n\nWhat the chart also shows is that these spikes, however severe, have historically been followed by periods of stabilisation and decline. The more instructive lesson may be to look at what tends to trigger them in the first place.\n\n**Oil price shocks: A short history**\n-------------------------------------\n\n| **Year** | **Event** | **What happened** | **Oil price move** |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| 1973 | OPEC embargo | Arab nations halt exports to the West | +300% over months |\n| 1990 | Gulf War | Iraq invades Kuwait, disrupting Gulf supply | Doubled in weeks |\n| 2007–08 | GFC super spike | Supply constraints met surging demand before the financial crisis broke | +170% peak to trough |\n| 2010–11 | Arab Spring | Political upheaval across North Africa and the Middle East raised supply fears | +30% over months |\n| 2019 | Aramco drone strikes | Drones attack two oil processing facilities in eastern Saudi Arabia | +15% in one day |\n| 2026 | Strait of Hormuz tensions | US and Israel strike Iran, leading to Iran effectively closing the passage. Oil surges above US$100 a barrel while OOO records the largest single-day ETF gain in ASX history | Oil up sharply; ASX: OOO +45% in one session |\n\nSources: see below\\*\n\nThe point is not that investors should try to predict these events. It is that energy price shocks are a recurring feature of global markets. They tend to follow periods of geopolitical tension, and the events of the past week are a reminder that such periods are not a relic of history.\n\n**What does this mean for a long-term investor?**\n-------------------------------------------------\n\nFor most investors, the most appropriate response to a week like this is not a sudden change of direction.\n\n“Despite the moves in oil, it’s our view that investors should maintain a well-diversified portfolio across equities, bonds and commodities,” said Cameron Gleeson, Senior Investment Strategist at Betashares.\n\n“A balanced approach across asset classes and sectors helps manage volatility and supports more consistent long-term outcomes, rather than relying on any single exposure to drive returns and build wealth.”\n\nFor investors comfortable with the risks and who are seeking this kind of exposure, Betashares provides investors with two options:\n\n*   OOO Crude Oil Index Currency Hedged Complex ETF , which seeks to track the performance of WTI crude oil futures and is currency hedged for Australian investors, and\n*   FUEL Global Energy Companies Currency Hedged ETF , which provides access to of the largest global energy companies (ex-Australia).\n\nBoth products are volatile by their nature because oil markets themselves can move quickly and significantly in either direction. Further, futures-based funds, such as OOO, carry additional complexity that can cause their returns to differ from the oil price itself.\n\nOil price volatility is expected to continue, although this will largely depend on how events in the region unfold. What is clearer is that history suggests these shocks are not exceptional events, but recurring ones. The investors who fare best are usually those who recognise the pattern and prepare for it.\n\n\\*Table sources:\n\n*   1973: Hamilton, J.D.

What often separates the two is whether an individual stayed invested long enough for the market to do its job.\n\nAccording to [an analysis](https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/05/stock-market-drops-investors.html) of US market data in the period from 1996 to 2026, the S&P 500 has fallen 1% or more on an average of 33 trading days each year and a 5% or greater drop has occurred 21 times. In every case, the market eventually recovered over the long term.\n\nHistory shows that moves like this tend to be a recurring feature of share markets, and rarely a reliable signal to change a long‑term investing plan.\n\nThe real test is discipline\n---------------------------\n\nThe pattern is clear enough on paper. But knowing that all this is only half the battle.\n\nA hypothetical historical performance simulation modelled by Betashares illustrates how this principle can be put into practice. Of course, it’s important to remember that past performance (whether actual or simulated) is not indicative of future performance, and actual outcomes will vary.\n\nBased on a $500,000 starting balance in August 2008, by 27 February 2026, a hypothetical investor who stayed fully invested in a portfolio representing the S&P/ASX 200 throughout the 2008 Global Financial Crisis would have come out only slightly behind an investor who picked the top perfectly and moved to cash for a year.\n\nOn the other hand, a hypothetical investor who tried to time the market and sold right at the bottom would have seen meaningfully worse outcomes over the comparison period.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/word-image-85301-1.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, Betashares Direct. Returns are based on the S&P/ASX 200 and does not take into account any fees and costs. You cannot invest directly in an index. The ‘perfect top’ represents a hypothetical investor who moved their balance into a term deposit paying the RBA cash rate on 29 August 2008 and held this investment for one full calendar year, while the ‘perfect bottom’ represents a hypothetical investor who moved their balance into a term deposit paying the RBA cash rate on 6 March 2009 and held this investment for one full calendar year. **Past performance (whether actual or simulated) is not an indicator of future performance**. **Provided for illustrative purposes only – not a recommendation to invest or adopt any investment strategy.**\n\nDuring COVID, the story repeated itself. Over a one-year window, from 1 March 2020 to 27 February 2026, the advantage of perfectly picking the market top (based on the S&P/ASX 200) and moving to cash for a year would have been just 3%, assuming no additional contributions were made during the period. For a hypothetical investor who timed the bottom rather than the top, they would have ended up with 34% less in gains than an investor who stayed the course and remained invested throughout the relevant period.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/word-image-85301-2.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, Betashares Direct.

The ‘perfect top’ represents a hypothetical investor who moved their balance into a term deposit paying the RBA cash rate on 21 February 2020 and held this investment for one full calendar year, while the ‘perfect bottom’ represents a hypothetical investor who moved their balance into a term deposit paying the RBA cash rate on 20 March 2020 and held this investment for one full calendar year. **Past performance (whether actual or simulated) is not an indicator of future performance.** **Provided for illustrative purposes only – not a recommendation to invest or adopt any investment strategy.**\n\nMore recently, during the Liberation Day sell-down, a hypothetical investor who sold right at the top and reinvested just 3 months later would have underperformed an investor who ‘rode out’ the crash without selling by more than 8% in less than a year.\n\nIn other words, remaining invested would have resulted in better returns.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/word-image-85301-3.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, Betashares Direct.

Data shows returns of the hypothetical investors (one who remained invested in a portfolio representing the S&P/ASX 200 (dividends reinvested) and another who sold their investments on 1 April 2025 and held the amount in cash (earning the RBA cash rate) over the period from 1 April 2025 to 5 March 2026). **Past performance (whether actual or simulated) is not an indicator of future performance. Provided for illustrative purposes only – not a recommendation to invest or adopt any investment strategy.**\n\nDollar-cost averaging: process over prediction\n----------------------------------------------\n\nFor investors seeking a structured approach to uncertain markets, dollar-cost averaging – investing a fixed amount at regular intervals regardless of market conditions – can offer a framework worth considering.\n\nTo help illustrate (by way of example), investing $100,000 in a hypothetical portfolio comprising the largest 200 companies on the ASX by market capitalisation at the ‘perfect top’ in 2008 and remaining invested would have grown the portfolio value to approximately $1,377,935 (as at 27 February 2026). Meanwhile, a $2,000/month DCA strategy over the same period (i.e. investing this amount at the start of each month) would have resulted in a portfolio value of around $1,339,667 – a gap of just 3%.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/word-image-85301-4.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, Betashares Direct. You cannot invest directly in an index. Data shows returns of the hypothetical investors (one who began to invest $2000 a month starting on 1 August 2008 and one who invested at the perfect top on 29 August 2008. Both investors are assumed not to have sold any of their holdings along the way. Returns data cuts off at 27 February 2026. **Past performance (whether actual or simulated) is not an indicator of future performance.

It helps investors remove emotion from decision making and stay aligned with their long-term plan, even during volatile periods.”\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3322,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2291,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

The tech selloff in context\n\nThe artificial intelligence theme has largely driven equity market returns since November 2022, but the tech sector faces fresh challenges.\n\nThe release of new agentic AI tools has raised questions about the viability of legacy software business models, while higher than expected hyperscaler capital expenditure commitments have led to broader unease.\n\n> _“…the current AI repricing of public companies is a process of asking “if” any future cash flows are safe. We used to debate “when” those cash flows would degrade – in 10 years? 20 years? Now the question is if_ _these future revenues (and RPO) have ANY value.”_ – [Chamath Palihapitiya](https://x.com/chamath/status/2027077786503164260), Canadian-American venture capitalist and founder of Social Capital on X\n\nHowever, the underlying story is more nuanced than what the selloff implies. Even as legitimate questions remain around the future of software, or whether AI-driven economic value circulates more broadly or concentrates toward the upper end of the income distribution, [the productivity benefits of AI are becoming increasingly evident across the US economy](https://www.bls.gov/productivity/).\n\nUltimately however, uncertainty is often a feature of major technological shifts and should serve as an important reminder of the value of diversification during periods like this.\n\nBeyond the Magnificent 7\n------------------------\n\nThe Nasdaq 100 has always provided investors exposure to the innovation and creative destruction of the dynamic US technology sector. Since its inception, the index has cycled through successive waves of technological disruption from the Internet to cloud-computing, continuously replacing the companies that failed to adapt with those that drove the next cycle forward.\n\nThat evolution is taking place yet again as investors discern who will be the winners and losers of AI. Share price dispersion has widened significantly among the Magnificent 7 since Q4 2025, while earnings growth is broadening out to the other 93 companies within the index.\n\nIn fact, some of the largest contributors to its returns over the last 6 months have been “non-Magnificent 7” semiconductor stocks like **Micron Technologies, Lam Research** and **Applied Materials** that have benefited from the hyperscaler capex juggernaut that accounted for roughly a third of US GDP growth last year.\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/word-image-85270-1.png) Source: Nasdaq Global Indexes, FactSet. As of March 4, 2026. Financial results have been adjusted to remove certain expenses such as one time costs or stock-based compensation.\n\nStill, the sheer scale of this spending alone has also contributed significantly to the hyperscaler’s cloud segments where revenues re-accelerated during the most recent reporting season. Amazon’s AWS and Microsoft’s Azure now have more than US$100 billion in annualised revenue, while Google’s cloud platform was the standout performer, growing revenues by 48% year-over-year (yoy) as enterprises shifted workloads from experimentation to full-scale production.\n\n| **Cloud Platform** | **Q4 2025 Revenue (USD)** | **YoY Growth** | **ARR (USD)** |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| **AWS** | $35.6B | 24% | $142B |\n| **Microsoft Azure** | $32.9B | 29% | $131B |\n| **Google Cloud** | $17.7B | 48% | $71B |\n\nSource: Company filings.\n\nAll in all, the earnings strength of the Nasdaq 100 continues to drive its performance and justify current valuation levels. The index grew earnings by 25.1% yoy¹ during the most recent Q4 2025 reporting season – its 11ᵗʰ straight quarter of double-digit earnings growth. Even when excluding the Mag7, the Nasdaq 100 grew earnings significantly faster than the S&P 500 ex-Mag7 at 23.2% compared to just 15.8%. Record corporate buybacks (surpassing US$1 trillion) and strong M&A activity were also key drivers to index performance.\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Hugh-NDQ-1400x894.png) Source: Nasdaq Global Indexes, FactSet. As at 5 March 2026.\n\nWhile renewed geopolitical and trade uncertainty have driven a marginal de-rating in risk assets over recent weeks, the exceptional earnings profile of the Nasdaq 100 should help underpin continued performance in index returns this year. Additionally, Asian semiconductor suppliers like TSMC and Samsung/SK Hynix are establishing manufacturing capabilities in the US, reducing long-term geopolitical supply chain risk – though near-term cost pressures from higher fab costs and rising HBM memory prices remain a consideration.\n\nThe big picture: Macro tailwinds may provide further support\n------------------------------------------------------------\n\nBeyond earnings, supportive financial conditions and fiscal policy provide additional tailwinds for the Nasdaq 100.\n\nA **weaker US dollar** could provide a tailwind for companies with high exposure to international sales, compared to those with more domestic US sales. This is because a weaker US dollar boosts reported company earnings when foreign sales are converted back into dollars. The Nasdaq 100 generates approximately 50% of revenues outside of the US, meaning companies within the index could receive an above-average tailwind from USD weakness.\n\n**Lower interest rates** will also benefit growth-oriented companies with future cash flows and valuations supported by lower costs of capital. While interest rate cut expectations have been pared back following a pick-up in core inflation and higher oil prices from the ongoing fallout in the Middle East, the Federal Reserve is still on track to deliver 1.5 cuts according to market pricing as at 6 March 2026.\n\nFinally, Trump’s One Big, Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) includes an **incentive to encourage companies to spend more on R&D**. This incentive allows companies to immediately expense domestic research and development (R&D) costs, in turn reducing both taxable income and tax payments. It is expected to provide a marginal boost to free cash flows for companies investing heavily in innovation, benefiting technology companies such as **Amazon**, **Alphabet**, and **Meta**.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Hugh-NDQ-2-1400x884.png)\n\nSource: Nasdaq Global Indexes, FactSet.\n\n### Investment Implications\n\nThe Nasdaq 100 has never offered a smooth ride - but it has consistently rewarded investors who recognised that periods of creative destruction are precisely when the index’s self-renewing structure is most valuable.

  FY26 earnings expectations for the S&P/ASX 200 have surged from 5.6% to 13.6% during the reporting season, representing a dramatic reset after two years of negative earnings growth¹.\n*   A sharp rebound in materials and a strong showing from the major banks underpinned the upgrade, reflecting broad strength across Australia’s heavyweight sectors.\n*   High yield and value factors led the market over the reporting period as investors rotated toward cash flow certainty and away from growth amid heightened volatility.\n\nAt the start of 2026 analysts were expecting the S&P/ASX 200 to grow earnings at 5.6% for the FY26 financial year. Following the February corporate reporting season these expectations now sit at 13.6%². For context, the US’s enviable S&P 500 just reported annual earnings growth of 14.2% during Q4³.\n\nComing off two consecutive financial years of negative earnings growth and trading at historically elevated valuations, the ASX’s turnaround is a welcome relief and nothing short of remarkable. Of course, base effects from the earnings declines in recent years contribute to a lower bar, but the magnitude of the turnaround shouldn’t be understated.\n\nBanks and miners pulling their weight\n-------------------------------------\n\nIt should be no surprise that such a result would require both Australia’s large cap banks and materials companies to pull their weight – given how significant their share of overall market capitalisation is.\n\nThe materials sector was the biggest swing factor. Having suffered a collective 18.0% earnings decline last financial year, ASX200 material’s companies are forecast to grow 33.2% in FY26⁴.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Tom-Earnings-1-1400x934.png)\n\nSource: Refinitiv. As at 2 March 2026. Actual results may differ materially from forecasts.\n\nBHP’s historic results saw copper overtake iron ore as the largest earnings contributor for the first time ever, representing 51% of group earnings. The surge in critical mineral prices alongside record highs for gold were also significant contributors to the sector’s earnings through mid- and small-cap miner’s earnings.\n\nMeanwhile, strong credit growth, rising net interest margins, and benign bad debt across the majors saw a rebound in the big bank’s recent fortunes. CBA’s record cash net profit set the tone and saw shares jump 8.4% on the day. The strength of results has been reflected in forward estimates – financials sector FY26 earnings expectations have increased from 1.4% at the start of the year, to now sit at 9.5%⁵.\n\nEarnings volatility remains elevated\n------------------------------------\n\nThe season did not come without its losers. In fact, on average earnings misses were punished by three times as much (-6.3%) as beats were rewarded (+2.1%)⁶. This increasing earnings volatility has been a growing trend after the prior August 2025 reporting season saw 46% of stocks moving +/- 5% on earnings, the highest on record. With the ASX trading on historically elevated valuations investors have little appetite for bad news.\n\nConsumer discretionary was a mixed bag – confirmation that the Australian consumer is still spending, but selectively. JB Hi-Fi was the sector standout, with record sales, profit growth and a 23.5% lift in its interim dividend. But the sector also captured the reporting season’s asymmetric return profile with results not needing to be bad to be punished, they just needed to fall short of increasingly high expectations. Harvey Norman fell 9.0% on a small miss as they flagged a tougher consumer environment following the recent interest rate hike.\n\nWith reporting coming in the midst of a global AI induced software sell off, Australia’s technology names were already in the crosshairs. In this environment, good results were simply not enough. Pro Medicus delivered 30% underlying profit growth and $280 million in new contracts, yet fell 20% on the day after a 2% revenue miss driven by contract timing. Zip Co, despite reporting EBITDA growth of 86%, saw a third of its market cap erased on flat second-half guidance. We penned our thoughts on the current [Australian technology sell off here](https://www.betashares.com.au/advisers/insights/aussie-tech-sell-off-wakeup-call/) and remain constructive on a rebound.\n\n### High yield and value factors outperform as investors reward capital returns\n\nThe earnings season also saw a continuation of the high yield and value factors outperforming in the Australian market.  Betashares S&P Australian Shares High Yield ETF (HYLD) and Betashares FTSE RAFI Australia 200 ETF (QOZ) factor ETFs returned 6.7% and 6.0% respectively in February, with the S&P/ASX 200 returning 1.3% over the period⁷ (HYLD and QOZ returns for 1 and 5 years are set out below). Telstra, Woodside and AGL were among the top contributors as investors rotated toward predictable cash flows amid AI-driven volatility in growth stocks.\n\nOverall, the season was a positive indication of strength in corporate Australia. Capital returns highlighted this, with boards using stronger balance sheets to reward shareholders directly. Dividends per share rose 2.1% to $93.5 billion across the index. Eighteen new buybacks were announced totalling $3 billion – a record for a December half-year reporting season, against a pre-season expectation of just 10, according to MST Marquee. The biggest came from Dexus ($725m) and BlueScope ($310m).\n\n| 1 year | 5 year (p.a.) |\n| --- | --- |\n| QOZ | 27.23% | 13.46% |\n| HYLD (index returns after fees) | 25.41% | 13.88% |\n\nSource: Bloomberg.

Gupta used to spend hours watching his trading app, hoping the market would deliver quick wins. It didn’t.\n\n“I realised I didn’t have time for day trading,” he said. “You need more time and knowledge of the market, which I didn’t have. “At 26, far from home and starting over in Australia after completing a postgraduate degree in supply chain management, he has come to see investing less as a pursuit of quick wins and more as a slow way to build independent wealth.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/word-image-84938-1.jpeg)\n\nAbhilash celebrating his graduation in Australia. (Source: Supplied)\n\nAbhilash started investing in India during the market turmoil of March and April 2020, at a time when online forums were filled with advice for first-time investors. He began with a small amount, then encouraged his family to invest as well.\n\n“I encouraged my dad to start investing. Soon after, I brought my elder sister on board,” he said. “It’s been a good journey for everyone,” he added.\n\nWhen Abhilash secured his first full-time job in 2021, he began building his portfolio more seriously through an Indian investment platform. He experimented with short-term trading and mutual funds, learning what worked and what didn’t in the process.\n\nThe main lesson he learned then was patience.\n\n“I’ve learned that building wealth takes time and I don’t need to look at the app daily. It won’t give me a $1000 jump every day,” he said.\n\n**Starting over in Australia**\n------------------------------\n\nWhen Abhilash arrived in Australia to begin his Master’s, investing fell down the priority list. Rent and university fees left little money for anything else.\n\nIn mid-2025, after a tax refund and a rental bond return, he decided to start again. Unsure where to begin, he turned to Reddit’s r/AusFinance community.\n\n“I posted on Reddit and asked people investing in the Australian market what I should do,” he recalled. “I was new to the market and looking for a platform that doesn’t charge fees.”\n\nSeveral users recommended Betashares Direct, citing its zero brokerage feature. He then invested $1,600 across four funds: HACK Global Cybersecurity ETF , NDQ Nasdaq 100 ETF , a broad market ETF and a high yield ETF. At 26, he said he was deliberately seeking higher-risk exposure. From there, his plan was straightforward: set up an automatic $100 monthly investment and let time do the work.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/word-image-84938-2.jpeg)\n\nSource: Supplied\n\n**The reality of job hunting**\n------------------------------\n\nSince completing his studies, Abhilash has been freelancing while applying for full-time roles. It was while navigating that uncertainty that his investment portfolio got an unexpected boost.\n\nRecently, he won a $5,000 [managed portfolio](https://www.betashares.com.au/direct/managed-portfolios?portfolio=core-all-growth#?utm_medium=organic&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=google&utm_term=google&utm_content=google) through the Big Betashares Giveaway, adding to his existing investments.\n\n“Knowing that money is invested means I don’t feel I’m starting from zero while I’m looking for work,” he said.\n\n**What security looks like**\n----------------------------\n\nWhen Abhilash talks about his financial goals, he talks about independence.\n\n“In 15 or 20 years, if I decide I don’t want to work anymore or if I want to retire at 50, then I want this investment to be enough to sustain me for 10 to 15 years,” he said.\n\nHe also sees investing as a buffer against uncertainty.\n\n“If I need some emergency funds, if something happens and I lose my job, then my investments would make a difference.”\n\nHe also no longer checks his portfolio daily, content to let time do the work.","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3262,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2254,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

you’d prefer to listen to this week’s edition in podcast form, please click the below player:\n\nGlobal stocks slumped last week, reflecting the surge in oil prices due to the Middle East conflict.\n----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table1-1.png)\n\nGlobal week in review: Iran digs in \n------------------------------------\n\nGlobal stocks understandably slumped last week as the ongoing war in the Middle East led to a 35% surge in crude oil prices. Lacking boots on the ground, US and Israeli missile strikes appear unable to easily dislodge the Iranian regime – which, so far at least, is digging in.  \n\n**At time of writing, WTI oil prices surged a further 16% in today’s morning trade, reaching $US106 a barrel. The S&P/ASX 200 was down 3% in early Monday morning trade.**  \n\nPerhaps most importantly last week, the Iranian regime was effectively able to scare off most oil freighters from using the Strait of Hormuz, through which 20% of global oil trade flows. Unable to ship its product and with storage tanks filling up fast, several Middle Eastern countries are winding down oil production. Drone and missile attacks on oil refineries have only added to the risk. The longer this war drags on, the larger the upside risk to oil prices, and presumably the greater the pressure on Trump to try to strike a deal.\n\nAlso of note was that bond yields rose around the world rather than fell,  with investors fearing the upside inflation risk from higher oil prices rather than the downside risks to economic growth. In the US, 10-year bond yields rose 0.2% to 4.14% as investors all but fully priced out one of the two Fed rate cuts expected this year. Along with safe haven flows, this shift in policy expectation also pushed up the US dollar, which in turn hurt gold prices and the Australian dollar.\n\nIndeed, across markets, it is notable that some of the more popular trades of late – namely non-US markets, gold and value sectors such as materials – have slumped the most, suggesting investors are hunkering down and raising cash.\n\nOther US economic news was mixed. The services sector PMI index was surprisingly robust in February, suggesting the overall economy continues to tick along well. offsetting this was Friday’s surprise 92k slump in February employment, although a strike in the health care sector and blizzard conditions seem partly to blame. \n\nGlobal week ahead: Iran & inflation\n-----------------------------------\n\nThe coming week will again be dominated by the Iran conflict. Who will blink first, and will it happen as early as this week? I suspect the resilience of the Iranian regime in the face of heavy attacks has surprised the US, but whether it can continue to hold out remains to be seen. The longer it can, the greater the pressure on Trump to ‘do a Greenland’ – i.e. claim victory and walk away.\n\nThe second most important point of interest this week will now be two US reports on inflation – the consumer price index (CPI) and the private consumption expenditure deflator (PCED). Annual growth in the core CPI is expected to hold steady at 2.5% – which excluding tariff effects – is probably closer to the Fed’s target of 2% (thanks in large part to easing housing inflation). Annual growth in the Fed’s preferred measure of underlying inflation (core PCED) will likely be less pleasing. Core PCED is expected to tick up to 3.1% from 3.0%. The PCED is currently running higher than the CPI due to its lower weight to housing.  \n\nAlso on Friday will be an update on US labour demand, with job openings data. We also get the consumer sentiment report which has staged a mini-recovery in recent months but is still wallowing at low levels. \n\nGlobal equity trends: the great rotation continues\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nThe MSCI All-Country World Equity Index dropped 3.2% last week, modestly underperforming the S&P 500’s drop of 2.0%. As noted above, position squaring likely accounts for heavier falls among recent popular trades – and does not necessarily suggest a shift in the underlying trends.\n\nSince the end of October 2025, we’ve seen underperformance of US/growth/technology, replaced by strength in Japan, emerging markets and small caps. There are also tentative signs of a bottoming out in the underperformance of the Australian market. Despite the US tech sector’s underperformance, global quality (among factors) is also holding up reasonably well.  \n\nAs we saw in 2022, if a global energy shock plays out, there may be a further rotation from interest rate-sensitive cyclical and technology sectors into more value-orientated defensives and resources.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table2-1.png) \n\nAustralian week in review: still firm employment\n------------------------------------------------\n\nThe major local highlight last week was the firm 0.8% gain in Q4 GDP, which – along with hawkish commentary from RBA Governor Michele Bullock – increased fears of another near term rate hike.      \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table3-2.png)\n\nContrary to market opinion, my take on the [GDP report](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/q4-2025-gdp/) was less hawkish. Despite a solid production gain, overall domestic demand slowed notably from 1.3% in Q3 to 0.5% in Q4. Consumer spending rose a measly 0.3%, and even allowing for the drag from electricity subsidies, was probably still only 0.5%. Of course, it’s also likely that a lot of spending on cigarettes is not being recorded, given so much now takes place on the black market.  \n\nRBA Governor Bullock also chimed in last week, reminding us there’s a policy meeting this month which should be considered ‘live’. My base case is that the RBA will again pull the rate hike trigger, although not until May after the Q1 CPI report in late April. Having said this, I guess a move this month can now no longer be ruled out. \n\nAustralian week ahead: sentiment in focus\n-----------------------------------------\n\nLocal highlights this week will be NAB and Westpac measures of business and consumer sentiment respectively. Both will likely be under pressure from interest rate fears – although may not yet reflect the added drag from the Iran war. \n\nAustralian equity trends\n------------------------\n\nMaterials were the big loser on the Australian market last week, declining 7.4% while the energy sector surged 9.0%. Even technology bounced last week, rising 3.3%.\n\nGiven position squaring, the Iran war will naturally play havoc with recent trends over the short run – although energy stocks are a clear winner for now.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table4-1.png)\n\nHave a great week!\n------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3286,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2270,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

conflict escalating in Iran, markets have responded with heightened volatility. When events like these unfold, it’s natural to feel uneasy. Headlines intensify, prices move quickly and uncertainty rises.\n\nBut history shows that volatility, while uncomfortable, has often been temporary.\n\nWhile volatility typically spikes during periods of uncertainty, markets have historically tended to absorb geopolitical shocks and refocus on fundamentals such as corporate earnings, economic growth and monetary policy.\n\nPeriods like this are a reminder that volatility is a normal part of investing, not a signal to abandon long-term plans.\n\n### What Australian investors have been doing\n\nRecent ETF flows suggest investors may have been adjusting their exposures rather than moving to the sidelines, with industry flows remaining strongly positive.\n\nMarket data points to rotation within markets, not broad-based risk aversion.\n\nAustralian investors have continued to allocate to broad Australian or global market exposures, while others have been selectively allocating to specific sectors such as resources.\n\nAt first glance, recent market moves could suggest shifting investor sentiment. However, context is critical when positioning portfolios.\n\nAccording to Betashares Senior Investment Strategist, Cameron Gleeson, periods of volatility should be a reminder for investors to refocus on building a strong core portfolio that can help to weather different market environments.\n\n“In uncertain markets, it’s important to ensure your core portfolio is well diversified and aligned to your long-term objectives,” he said. “Implementing a dollar cost averaging approach can help smooth entry points over time, rather than attempting to time short-term market moves.”\n\nHe added that while short-term fluctuations may create tactical opportunities, these should be assessed carefully within the context of an investor’s broader portfolio strategy.\n\n“Rather than reacting to headlines, investors may benefit from maintaining disciplined core exposures while selectively assessing tactical opportunities that are aligned with an investor’s long-term strategy and time horizon.”\n\n### **Common mistakes during volatile periods**\n\nAs we have outlined [here](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/worried-about-market-volatility/), market downturns tend to test investor discipline. Some of the most damaging decisions to portfolio outcomes are driven by emotions.\n\n1.  **Panic selling**\n\nSelling during sharp declines can lock in losses and can also mean missing a potential recovery, which can begin before sentiment improves.\n\n2.  **Trying to time the market**\n\nShort-term movements are unpredictable. Missing even a small number of strong recovery days can significantly reduce long-term returns.\n\n3.  **Making drastic allocation shifts**\n\nLarge, reactive changes to asset allocation can derail a long-term strategy and could even increase portfolio risk.\n\n4.  **Halting regular investments**\n\nContinuing to invest during downturns can improve long-term outcomes through dollar-cost averaging. You can learn more about dollar-cost averaging [here](https://www.betashares.com.au/education/dollar-cost-averaging-taking-time-out-of-the-investment-equation/).\n\n5.  **Holding excessive cash**\n\nWhile liquidity is important, remaining overly defensive for extended periods can result in missed growth opportunities once markets stabilise.\n\n**Why staying calm matters**\n\nVolatility feels uncomfortable in the moment, but a [well-diversified portfolio](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/portfolio-diversification/) aligned to your long-term objectives can help to withstand these environments.","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3281,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2266,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

Friday, the US Supreme Court ruled President Trump’s tariffs illegal, exceeding his authority under the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). Within hours of the ruling, Trump announced a 10% global tariff which would then be followed by an increase to 15% over the weekend.\n\nWith global trade under renewed uncertainty, US equity indices may face yet another challenge after the launch of new AI tools saw billions of dollars lost across software stocks earlier in the month.\n\nAs investors continue to assess which business models will prove most resilient to AI adoption, many are prudently looking for global equity diversification. Markets outside of the US such as Australia, Japan and Europe have all enjoyed solid gains year to date.\n\nIn this edition of Charts of the month, we take a look at the impact of potential tariff refunds, the rotation occurring within US tech and the Australian share market, why currency matters when investing in Japan, and the recent surge in German defence spending.\n\n1 – US Supreme Court decision restokes global trade tensions\n------------------------------------------------------------\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/word-image-84814-1.png)\n\nMore than US$175 billion in US tariff collections are subject to refunds after the US Supreme Court ruled President Trump’s tariffs imposed under IEEPA unlawful. While Trump has used other legal pretexts to reinstitute a 15% across the board tariff, the Supreme Court’s ruling has effectively dealt a blow to Trump’s tariff strategy.\n\nEven with alternative options available, the latest lift in tariffs requires Congressional approval within five months where Republicans currently hold a narrow majority.\n\n2 – Is SaaS trash?\n------------------\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Hugh-COTM-1-1400x938.png) Source: Goldman Sachs. As at 19 February 2026. Rebased to 100 as at 31 Dec 2025.\n\nAfter years of gains, the backdrop for AI-related themes has become more challenging this year, with fears of rising hyperscaler capex projections and the disruption to software providers weighing on the broader tech sector.\n\nBut underneath the surface, there have been significant shifts in winners and losers.\n\nCompanies tied to the physical infrastructure (e.g., data centres, chip manufacturing) of the AI boom have become net beneficiaries relative to the broader software sector given their more insulated positions further up the supply chain, and stronger pricing power abilities. In comparison, the software sector has sold off considerably with investors reassessing commoditised categories in particular.\n\n3 – Changing of the guard to drive Australian large caps forward\n----------------------------------------------------------------\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Hugh-COTM-2-1400x877.png) Source: Bloomberg. As at 23 February 2026. Series shows S&P/ASX 200 Materials sector divided by S&P/ASX 200 Financials sector from 1 January 2020 to 23 February 2026. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. You cannot invest directly in an index.\n\nIn our view, the Materials sector is expected to drive Australian large-cap returns in 2026, underpinned by robust commodity demand and superior earnings growth projections. Companies in this sector have benefited from higher gold, copper and lithium prices. China’s exit from deflation and infrastructure stimulus could further boost demand for these metals, positioning Materials for leadership this year.\n\nWhile Financials earnings expectations remain solid at 6.9% for FY2026, we see meaningfully greater upside in Materials given their earnings inflection from -18.0% in FY25 to 19.4% in FY26¹.\n\n4 – A new dawn in the land of the rising sun\n--------------------------------------------\n\n![Chart 1, Chart element](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/chart-1-chart-element.png)\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nSource: Bloomberg. As at 31 January 2026.\n\nPrime Minister Takaichi’s landslide victory in the recent lower house elections — the largest in Japan’s post-war history — gives her government the green light to push through further structural reforms and fiscal stimulus largely unobstructed. For Japanese equities, this is broadly positive, although less so for the yen.\n\nAgainst this backdrop, a currency hedged Japanese equities exposure like the HJPN Japan Currency Hedged ETF may be a compelling exposure for investors. HJPN seeks to provide exposure to a portfolio of large Japanese exporters with the currency risk hedged back to Australian dollars, allowing investors to capture the Japanese equity story without the drag of unhedged yen exposure.\n\n5 – German defence spending on the march\n----------------------------------------\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Hugh-COTM-3-7-1400x825.png)\n\nSource: BCA Research.\n\nGermany has committed to substantial defence spending increases in 2026, approved by the Bundestag in late 2025, amid NATO goals and escalating geopolitical threats.\n\nThe 2026 regular defence budget stands at approximately €83 billion², up significantly from 2025 levels (around €63 billion). Including the special Bundeswehr fund, total spending reaches over €108 billion, funding weapons systems, infrastructure, and up to 10,000 additional personnel.\n\nThis positions Germany to exceed NATO’s 2% GDP target early, aiming for 3.5% by 2029³  — six years ahead of schedule — with projections rising to €152 billion annually by then⁴. Debt brake exemptions enable borrowing for defence, part of a broader €500+ billion federal budget.\n\nFootnotes:\n\n1\\. Source: Refinitiv. As at 13 January 2026.

week in review: AI fears persist\n---------------------------------------\n\nThere was little in the way of major global economic news last week, with equities generally on the defensive after a nervous bounce higher over the previous week.\n\nUS economic data was generally upbeat – a welcome bounce was seen in US consumer confidence in February (albeit from still low levels) along with a higher-than-expected producer price report. Fed rate cut expectations barely flinched. \n\nMarkets generally remained fixated on the AI fallout. **Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA)**‘s earnings result was much better-than-expected once again, although it was not good enough to avoid a 5% post-result share price decline. Investors fretted over the sustainability of the surge in AI-related data centre/chip demand. In related news, Meta has agreed to buy US$60 billion of rival chip maker AMD’s offerings, whilst also taking a 10% ownership stake in the company. This has been seen by the market so far as a general vote of confidence in the AI boom. \n\nOutside of the US, the Japanese Government’s appointment of two academic ‘monetary doves’ to the Bank of Japan board raised some concerns over whether the BOJ will remain diligent in containing inflation. The Japanese 10-year bond yield briefly dipped on the news, although it ended the week unchanged at 2.12%. The market still expects two further rate hikes this year, with the next one in July. \n\nOf course, the big news of the week was the US missile strike on Iran over the weekend, which in early Monday trading triggered a not entirely surprising fall in equity prices and bond yields.\n\nAt the time of writing, S&P 500 futures were off 1% while the S&P/ASX 200 was down 0.5%. Oil and gold prices have lifted 13% and 1.6% respectively, while the US dollar has also caught a safe-haven bid at the expense of the Australian dollar, which has dropped to 70.64 US cents.\n\nGlobal week ahead: Iran & payrolls   \n-------------------------------------\n\nThe coming week is likely to be dominated by the Iran conflict – will it be quickly contained, with Iran agreeing to a deal, or will it spread with Iran digging in and launching more devastating counter-attacks than the ones seen to date?\n\nJudging by events in Venezuela, Trump may not insist on regime change per se, given how difficult it is to engineer without placing boots on the ground – especially if Iran quickly rolls over and agrees to a new nuclear deal. Iran’s counter attacks so far have been relatively limited, suggesting it may only be able to put up limited resistance, which may encourage the US to continue pressing its advantage.\n\nOne near-term risk is a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, where 20% of global oil supply flows through. Iran has reportedly declared the trade route “[closed](https://www.afr.com/world/middle-east/oil-and-lng-suppliers-suspend-shipping-through-strait-of-hormuz-20260301-p5o6co)“, although effective enforcement remains unclear – especially with the US targeting Iranian warships. Even without a formal blockade, however, oil-related transport costs are likely to rise given shipping companies may re-route to alternative, more expensive routes and freight insurance costs are likely to surge.\n\nLikely of secondary importance this week will be Friday’s US payrolls report, with a modest 58k gain in jobs during February expected, which should keep the unemployment rate steady at 4.3%. \n\nGlobal equity trends: the great rotation continues\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nThe MSCI All-Country World Equity Index rose 0.3% last week, modestly outperforming the US market – led by solid gains in Japan and emerging markets. The NASDAQ-100 slipped 0.2%, slightly less than the S&P 500.  \n\nThat said, the great rotation remains in place. Since the end of October 2025, we’ve seen underperformance of US/growth/technology, replaced by strength in Japan, emerging markets and small caps. There are also tentative signs of a bottoming out in the underperformance of the Australian market. Despite the US tech underperformance, global quality (among factors) is also holding up reasonably well.  \n\nAs we saw in 2022, if a global energy shock plays out, there may be a further rotation from interest rate-sensitive cyclical and technology sectors into more value-orientated defensives and resources.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table3-1.png) \n\nAustralian week in review: still firm employment\n------------------------------------------------\n\nDespite local interest rate fears, Australian shares enjoyed another decent bounce last week, with the S&P/ASX 200 further moving north of the 9,000 level. Defensive companies and resources generally fared best, with materials and consumer staples returning 7.4% and 5.0% respectively. That said, the beaten-down technology sector bounced for the second week in a row.   \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table3.png)\n\nThe main news last week was another firm monthly consumer price index (CPI) report, with annual trimmed mean inflation edging up to 3.4% from 3.3%. As I [argued](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/january-2026-cpi/) last week, while the monthly figures need to be taken with a grain of salt, the apparent broad-based firmness in prices does not bode well for a benign Q1 CPI report in late April. \n\nOther economic data was also generally firm:\n\nTotal Q4 construction spending was weaker than expected, although this reflected a winding down in several public infrastructure projects offset by ongoing strength in private residential and non-residential building.\n\nMeanwhile, private Q4 capital spending was firmer-than-expected – strength in non-mining construction activity was partly offset by a pullback in data centre related spending on machinery and equipment. \n\nAll up, housing and business investment appears to have held up well in Q4.       \n\nAustralian week ahead: Q4 GDP \n------------------------------\n\nHot off the press this morning, national capital city house prices rose a further 0.7% in February, although the most strength is being seen in the cheaper cities outside of Sydney and Melbourne. The RBA’s rate hike last month is likely to see a broader cooling in prices in the months ahead.  \n\nThe local highlight this week will be Wednesday’s Q4 GDP report. The market anticipates a solid 0.7% gain following the 0.4% Q3 gain, with signs of ongoing broad-based strength in private demand (consumer spending, housing and business investment). \n\nGiven the RBA’s intense focus on capacity constraints, further evidence of solid Q4 domestic demand (which rose 1% in Q3) will add to the pressure for another rate hike – although **I still see the next move in May (after the Q1 CPI report) rather than this month.**\n\nWith regards to the Iran conflict, implications for the RBA would be fairly mixed – higher global energy prices would be a negative for consumer spending and sentiment, while also placing upward pressure on headline inflation (fuel accounts for 3% of the CPI). **On balance, however, heightened geopolitical tensions – if they persisted and escalated – would tend to make the RBA less likely to hike rates amidst such uncertainty**.\n\nAustralian equity trends\n------------------------\n\nResources continue to go from strength to strength in the local market, with financials experiencing a range bound relative performance. We’ve seen a tentative bounce in the (likely oversold) technology and small cap space in recent weeks, likely reflecting bargain hunting among stocks judged to have been unfairly sold down by AI disruption fears.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/table4.png)\n\nHave a great week!\n------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":3252,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2246,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

But if history has taught us anything, it's that market corrections – periods when share prices drop significantly – are not only common but are often temporary.\n\nETF investors with a long-term view can think of downturns or pullbacks as potential buying opportunities. Here's why.\n\n## A brief history of market corrections\n\nOver the past 50 years, the ASX has seen several significant drops:\n\n### **1987 crash (Black Monday)**\n\nOn 20 October 1987, the ASX 200 fell 25% in one day – one of the biggest one-day drops in its history[¹](#1). Despite the drama, the market reached its low within a month and recovered to pre-crash levels in around 2.5 years.\n\n### **Dot-com crash (2000-2002)**\n\nDriven by speculative tech stocks, the ASX 200 declined about 22%, bottoming out over two years. It took around three years for the losses during the dot-com crash to be erased.\n\n### **Global Financial Crisis (2008-2009)**\n\nThe ASX 200 dropped 54% over approximately 17 months. But investors who held firm saw markets fully recover within about five years.\n\nSimilarly, global markets have historically reflected the same resilience:\n\n### **COVID-19 crash (2020)**\n\nIn the US, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell roughly 34% and 30% respectively between 19 February high to the 23 March bottom[²](#2). However, both bounced back to pre-crash highs within about six months, driven by rapid economic intervention.\n\n### **European Debt Crisis (2011-2012)**\n\nThe Euro Stoxx 50 declined around 35% over two years due to a slew of sovereign debt concerns. Yet, within three years, markets fully recovered.\n\nDespite the panic surrounding market crashes, the long-term picture tells a different story:\n\n* Australian equities have delivered an 8.33% total return over the past 25 years³.\n* Global equities have returned 8.60% annually since 1987⁴.\n\nIn other words, markets recover, and disciplined investors are rewarded over time.\n\n## Why are investors nervous now?\n\nSince President Trump declared 2 April as Liberation Day and announced the most sweeping tariffs in nearly a century, global sharemarkets have experienced significant volatility. \n\nOur Investment Strategy & Research team have provided further insights into what could happen next and how investors may think about different asset classes following Liberation Day [here](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/liberation-day-fallout/).\n\n## What triggers market corrections?\n\nMarket corrections are usually triggered by a combination of economic, geopolitical and financial factors. Common causes include rising interest rates, economic recessions, unexpected geopolitical events or simply excessive optimism leading to speculative bubbles. Understanding that these triggers are often temporary can help ease anxiety and encourage discipline in your investment strategy.\n\n## Some common mistakes investors make\n\nDuring market downturns, investors commonly make emotional decisions that can negatively impact their long-term returns:\n\n### **Panic selling**\n\nSelling out of fear locks in losses and prevents investors from benefiting when markets recover.\n\n### **Trying to time the market**\n\nPredicting short-term movements is nearly impossible. History shows that investors who stay invested tend to achieve better long-term results.\n\n### **Drastic asset allocation shifts**\n\nMaking sudden changes – such as shifting large amounts from one asset class to another – can derail a long-term strategy and reduce future returns.\n\n### **Halting regular investments**\n\nMany investors consistently add money during market upswings but hesitate when prices drop. However, adding to your investments during downturns may help you to improve your long-term returns when markets rebound.\n\n### **Holding too much cash**\n\nWhile having a cash buffer is important, keeping too much on the sidelines may mean missing out on potential market recoveries and long-term growth.\n\nMaking any of these mistakes, or a combination of them, can significantly hurt long-term returns. Investors often panic during downturns and chase markets after they rebound, missing some of the best days of performance in between. We cover this topic in more detail [here.](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/investment-performance-during-accumulation-years/)\n\n## The power of diversification\n\nETFs may help you avoid these mistakes by providing diversified exposure that removes the temptation to pick individual winners or losers.\n\nIn addition, by spreading investments across various markets, sectors and regions, you may avoid the worst impacts of any single downturn. Diversified portfolios, especially those with global exposure, are historically better positioned to absorb shocks and recover more quickly.\n\n## Turning downturns into opportunities\n\nETFs provide a practical way to navigate market corrections. When markets fall, adding steadily to your investments (known as [dollar-cost averaging](https://www.betashares.com.au/education/dollar-cost-averaging-taking-time-out-of-the-investment-equation/)) allows you to gain exposure to more of your preferred investment for less. For numerous historical reasons, those who stay invested during downturns tend to see stronger long-term returns[³](#3). Note that here, we are talking about staying the course in your long-term investment strategy during a downturn and not about dip-buying. The latter strategy is both very difficult to execute and could cost you a small fortune in fees.\n\nAs Warren Buffett famously put it: \"The stock market is a device to transfer money from the 'impatient' to the 'patient'.\"\n\n## Stay calm, stay invested\n\nThe next time markets wobble, remember that market corrections aren't disasters. They're part of the journey. By sticking to your investment strategy, especially with ETFs that provide broad, diversified exposure, you're positioned well for long-term growth.\n\nStay calm, stay invested and stay diversified. If history is any guide, patience and discipline will be rewarded.\n\n---\n\n## References:\n\n##### 1. [Is the ASX 200 about to crash?

don’t go up in a straight line (wouldn’t that be nice!).\n\nIn reality, and as investors are experiencing in the current environment, volatility goes hand-in-hand with investing and periods of negative returns are not uncommon. However, over the longer term, sharemarkets have tended to trend upwards.\n\n### **_Historical returns of the Australian sharemarket: S&P/ASX 200 Total Return Index_**\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Chart_Web_250409.png)\n\n##### Source: Morningstar Direct, Betashares. Returns from 02/04/2001 to 09/04/2025. Past performance is not indicative of future performance.  \n\nThere are a multitude of factors that can cause periods of negative returns, whether this be a collapse in the financial system (the Global Financial Crisis), a global pandemic (COVID), or the prices of goods and services rising faster than anticipated (inflation), causing central banks to raise interest rates.\n\n## What to do during market volatility\n\n### **Questions to ask yourself**\n\nWhen investors see the value of their portfolio declining, it is not unnatural for them to panic.\n\nThe key is to try to remain rational and maintain a disciplined investment approach. The opening phrase of Rudyard Kipling’s _If_ comes to mind – “If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs …”.\n\nTo help you maintain a sense of level-headedness, you can begin by asking yourself two questions:\n\n1.  Is this pullback ‘normal’ like many we have seen throughout history?\n2.  Do my financial objectives remain the same?\n\nIf the answers to both these questions are ’Yes’, the pullback shouldn’t warrant wholesale changes in your investment approach. Sticking to smaller adjustments, if any, may be more appropriate.\n\n### **Consider your options**\n\nWhen considering what to do with your portfolio, there are three main options:\n\n1.  Sell and aim to avoid further losses\n2.  Buy the dips, seeing an opportunity to buy at a lower price\n3.  Do nothing and ride the wave\n\nWithout hindsight, there is no certainty as to which of these is best, however the first two do require you to time the market, which requires either skill or luck, and is almost impossible to do consistently. While everyone’s goals and circumstances are different, history suggests that taking a longer-term view may be the best course of action.\n\n## Tips for investing for the long-term\n\n### **Diversification is your best form of risk management**\n\nMarkets typically recover, individual stocks may not. As such, investors need to appropriately [diversify their portfolios](/category/portfolio-diversification/).\n\nWhile a single ETF can provide access to hundreds of securities in one trade, it is also important to hold a blend of asset classes, regions and sectors as different exposures can benefit or suffer in different environments.\n\n### **Know your risk tolerance and timeframe**\n\nThere is generally a trade-off between risk and return. Typically, the lower your risk, the less you should expect in return.\n\n### _**Risk/return profiles of different asset classes**_\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/ETF-_Graphs_221205_Investment-101-Risk-vs-Return_800px-e1722899074371.png)\n\n##### Source: Betashares. Provided for illustrative purposes only. Not a recommendation to make any investment or adopt any investment strategy.\n\nKnowing your risk tolerance is key to constructing your portfolio and should determine your mix of asset classes. Typically, the longer your time horizon, the more risk you can take as you have more time to weather periods of negative returns as illustrated above.\n\n### **Contribute periodically**\n\nWhile it is extremely difficult to time markets, contributing on a regular, periodic basis ([dollar cost averaging](/education/dollar-cost-averaging-taking-time-out-of-the-investment-equation/)) can have great benefits. By sticking to a schedule, you will buy dips as well as buying at highs, assisting in reducing your overall volatility. It will also help enhance the compounding effect.\n\n## Conclusion\n\nMarket corrections are normal, however understandably can raise internal questions for investors. But keeping in perspective that markets can be volatile and maintaining a long-term plan with your financial goals firmly in mind can help you to make rational investment decisions.\n\nA well-diversified portfolio should also allow you to weather the storm and come out the other side.\n\n* * *\n\n##### This article contains general information only and does not take into account any person’s objectives, financial situation or needs.

December retail sales were softer than expected, with the flat result raising some downside growth concerns. That said, at least part of the weakness likely reflected shifting seasonal patterns, driven by the growing popularity of November sales – spending that month rose a healthy 0.6%.\n\nOffsetting the weakness in retail sales was a better-than-expected 130k gain in January employment, with the unemployment rate dropping from 4.4% to 4.3%. Weekly jobless claims also remained reassuringly low. \n\nCapping off the week was a slightly lower-than-expected 0.2% gain in headline consumer prices, although core CPI inflation was in line with expectations at 0.3%. Core annual CPI inflation edged down to 2.5% from 2.6%, and is likely closer to the Fed’s 2% target once tariff effects are stripped out. Benign inflation and generally slowing employment remain green lights for further Fed rate cuts despite GDP growth remaining buoyant. \n\n### **AI disruption spreads** \n\nBut perhaps the biggest Wall Street story last week was growing signs of rolling AI-related disruption across more sectors. What was a concern only for software companies has since spread to financial services, trucking and commercial property. The arrival of AI tools to aid tax planning and freight management sent shudders through the first two sectors while growing concerns over white-collar unemployment hurt the commercial property sector. The sector has already come under pressure from the work-from-home trend.\n\nOne dawning reality for Wall Street is that many of the potential losers from AI disruption are well established large listed companies, while some of the AI usurpers are either unlisted or – so far at least – still too small to move markets.\n\nFor instance, listed ‘penny stock’ Algorhythm (NASDAQ: RIME) is an AI upstart aiming to make freight management more efficient – and thus reduce demand for trucking services. RIME rose 270% last week but still has a market capitalisation of just US$20 million! Altruist, which sent shudders through the listed wealth management sector last week with its AI tax planning tool, is an unlisted tech upstart but, as at April 2025, was already reportedly valued at nearly [US$2 billion](https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/wealth-management-firm-altruist-valued-nearly-2-billion-latest-funding-round-2025-04-22/).\n\nWhile the near-term impact of AI disruption is mixed in equity markets, the potential productivity payoff is unambiguously positive over the longer term. AI disruption, to the extent it lowers inflation and potentially disrupts economic activity temporarily, is also clearly good news for fixed rate bonds!     \n\nGlobal week ahead: US GDP and PCE\n---------------------------------\n\nMost of the major US economic news is released this Friday, including Q4 GDP and the December private consumption expenditure deflector (PCED).\n\nAfter a strong annualised gain of 4.4% in Q3, US GDP is expected to have grown at an annualised rate of 2.8% in Q4 according to market consensus,  although the Atlanta GDPNow current estimate is 3.7%.\n\nThe core PCED – the Fed’s preferred measure of underlying inflation – is expected to have risen 0.3% in December, which would result in an uptick in annual core inflation to 3.0% from 2.8%. Somewhat unusually, the PCED measure of US consumer price inflation is currently running _above_ the CPI measure. This reflects the relative strength in energy prices and weakness in housing prices over the past year, with the PCED having a higher weight to the former and a lower weight to the latter than the CPI. \n\nElsewhere, New Zealand’s central bank is expected to leave rates on hold on Wednesday. The RBNZ is facing the mixed forces of both high inflation and unemployment – although the latter is expected to help lower the former over the coming year.   \n\nGlobal equity trends: the great rotation continues\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nThe ‘great rotation’ remains alive and well. The MSCI All-Country World Equity Index edged down 0.2% last week, outperforming the S&P 500 and NASDAQ-100 which were both down 1.3%. Following the Japanese election (mentioned last week), the Nikkei-225 soared 5.0% while emerging market equities enjoyed a 2.7% gain.\n\nSince the end of October 2025, we’ve seen underperformance of US/growth/technology, replaced by strength in Japan, emerging markets and small caps. Australia enjoyed a relative performance bounce last week, though the longer-run trend remains downward.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/table2-2.webp) \n\nAustralian week in review: a solid bounce\n-----------------------------------------\n\nAs noted above, Australian shares enjoyed a solid bounce last week, with the S&P/ASX 200 returning 2.4% after a 1.8% decline in the previous week (reflecting the RBA rate hike). Materials, utilities and financials enjoyed especially strong gains. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/table3-2.webp)\n\nThe main news last week was an easing in both business and consumer sentiment following the RBA’s rate hike. The Westpac measure of consumer sentiment declined 2.6% in February, with the recovery in sentiment over previous months now appearing to stall at below-average levels. The NAB measure of business conditions edged back from +9 to +7 in January, returning to long-run levels. \n\nDwelling finance was strong in Q4, obviously pre-dating the RBA’s February 2026 rate hike, with lending up 9.5%, driven by gains of 10.6% for home buyers and 7.9% for investors. The Federal Government’s first home buyer incentives clearly helped boost demand, with evidence of housing exuberance during the quarter likely contributing to the RBA’s decision to raise rates earlier this month.  \n\nAustralian week ahead: RBA minutes and employment\n-------------------------------------------------\n\nTuesday will shine even more light on the RBA’s decision to raise rates this month with the release of the meeting minutes. Markets will be attentive to any hints of further rate cuts, even if they are now attaching an 80% chance to a rate hike by the May 2026 meeting. \n\nOn Thursday, we get the January labour market report. A healthy 20k gain in employment and a modest rebound in the unemployment rate from 4.1% to 4.2% is expected. Note that employment has been choppy of late – likely not helped by shifting seasonal patterns – with surprise strength in December and surprise weakness in November.          \n\nAustralian equity trends\n------------------------\n\nAfter an RBA-induced drop in the previous week, many leading sectors enjoyed decent rebounds last week. More broadly, recent trends remain in place, with a rotation from financials and technology to resources. The recent outperformance of small caps continued to unwind further last week.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/table4-1.webp)\n\nHave a great week!\n------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2993,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2155,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

is a phenomenon that we experience in day-to-day life – a psychological, but very real effect where positive outcomes drive further success, or setbacks can compound.\n\nAcademic research and empirical data demonstrate that this behaviour can also be applied to investing. However, this requires a disciplined approach which seeks to avoid human bias.\n\nWhat is momentum investing?\n---------------------------\n\nMomentum investing is a strategy that involves buying companies that have outperformed and selling or avoiding those that have recently underperformed.\n\nBacked by academic research, momentum is a well-known ‘style factor’ (alongside the likes of value and quality).\n\nRather than aiming to profit from underlying company fundamentals, momentum investing instead is based on the theory that rising asset prices tend to continue rising, and falling prices tend to continue falling.\n\nHow momentum can add outperformance potential\n---------------------------------------------\n\nA momentum-based investment strategy can add outperformance potential relative to broad equity index benchmarks over the long term. There is a considerable body of academic research and empirical data that demonstrates the benefits of momentum investing across different markets, regions and asset classes.\n\nThe below analysis illustrates the performance of the largest global ex-Australia companies¹  grouped into quartiles by their momentum rankings measured by their risk-adjusted returns (12-month total return/12-month volatility), weighted equally and rebalanced semi-annually.\n\nThe chart below shows that, over the period 2011 to 2025, stocks with the highest momentum scores (top quartile) achieved 2% p.a. higher returns compared to stocks with the lowest momentum scores (bottom quartile). ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Hamish-1-1400x722.webp) \n\nSource: Solactive, Betashares, as at 31 December 2025. **Past performance is not indicative of future returns.**\n\nA systematic approach to momentum\n---------------------------------\n\nWhile the concept of momentum is straightforward, implementing it consistently is not.\n\nAn individual investor seeking to implement a momentum-based strategy on their own faces several hurdles, including the time commitment required, the difficulty of consistently identifying outperforming stocks, the challenge of maintaining an unbiased buying and selling discipline, and the impact of execution costs. This is where a systematic, rules-based approach can add value.\n\nThe Betashares Global Momentum ETF (ASX: GTUM) provides exposure to stocks with strong price momentum from global developed markets outside of Australia. GTUM’s Index ranks stocks within the eligible universe based on 6 and 12-month risk adjusted returns to target more sustainable positive momentum over sharp, highly volatile run-ups. Stocks displaying consistently strong positive momentum over recent history are rewarded with higher weights in the Index².\n\nSince its inception in January 2011 to end December 2025, GTUM’s Index has outperformed the MSCI World Ex Australia Index by 3.14% p.a. ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Hamish-2-1-1400x878.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, Betashares.

GTUM’s inception date was 30 January 2026. You cannot invest directly in an index. **Past performance is not indicative of future performance.**  \n\nPortfolio diversification\n-------------------------\n\nMomentum offers a unique return profile that differentiates it from other style factors such as quality and value, historically exhibiting low or even negative excess return correlation. As a result, it can be an appealing complement to many equity funds (both active and passive) which often exhibit style biases. Blending momentum with its distinct return profile may therefore provide meaningful diversification benefits within an existing equity portfolio.\n\n| **Excess Return Correlation** | **GTUM’s Index** | **Value** | **Quality** |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| **GTUM’s Index** | 1 |\n| **Value** | \\-0.22 | 1 |\n| **Quality** | 0.27 | \\-0.51 | 1 |\n\nCorrelation of monthly excess returns over MSCI World ex Australia Index, from Jan 2011 – Dec 2025.

The portfolio is dynamic, taking overweights (underweights) to strongly (poorly) performing sectors through the market cycle, irrespective of their quality or value credentials.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Hamish-3-1400x796.webp)\n\nSource: Solactive, Betashares.

expected the RBA’s 0.25% hike to 3.85% last week. But they didn’t anticipate that core inflation may not return to the central bank’s target range until mid-2028.\n\nFor investors, such a swift return to a rate-hiking cycle creates both challenges and opportunity. History shows banks are often slow to pass higher rates to depositors, leaving yields on everyday cash lower than the official cash rate. This gap creates a chance for investors to earn more by using short-term cash investments that track market rates.\n\nLooking ahead, markets are pricing in roughly 1.6 additional hikes this year, but predictions range from rates holding steady to as many as two more increases. Unless inflation data delivers a positive (lower than forecast) surprise, more hikes are very possible, making it crucial for investors to position portfolios strategically.\n\nWhy waiting doesn’t necessarily pay\n-----------------------------------\n\nIn financial markets, prices often move before an event actually happens.\n\nLast week’s inflation report, for example, came in higher than expected. Even before the report, investors had already priced at least one rate hike by May. After the report and the RBA’s decision, markets began pricing in up to three hikes by the end of the year. Most of the market reaction had already occurred, so short-term yields were already elevated by the time the decision was announced.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/word-image-84230-1.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, RBA. As at 4 Feb 2026.\n\nThis means that markets often move ahead of official announcements. Having said that, surprises can still have an effect. Yields on short-term cash and bond-like instruments rose slightly further following the RBA’s recent interest rate decision, once RBA’s updated inflation forecast was made clear. But again, this was a small adjustment from those already-elevated levels. This means investors who had already locked in term deposit rates earlier may miss out on the extra income.\n\nMore broadly, Australia is now on a different path from other major economies. The RBA is raising rates while the US Federal Reserve and other central banks are either cutting or holding rates. This divergence has made Australian fixed income investments more attractive compared with similar investments overseas.\n\nFinally, it should be said this pattern occurs across many asset classes – stocks, fixed income, cash, gold and oil.\n\nHow to make the most of the ‘expected’ hikes\n--------------------------------------------\n\nMost of Australia’s major banks have already passed on the full rate hike to mortgage holders, but they may not necessarily do the same for term deposit holders.\n\nSince April 2022, the average six-month term deposit rate has been 0.63% below the RBA cash rate, meaning many Australians are earning less than they could.\n\nGiven that the RBA cash rate is an overnight rate, depositors would reasonably expect to be paid more, not less, for locking up their money for six months. With Australians holding approximately $1.2 trillion in non-transaction deposits such as term deposits with banks, this implies that over the past year more than $7 billion in interest income has been forgone relative to the RBA cash rate.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/word-image-84230-2.webp)Source: RBA. Most recently published data is for December 2025.\n\n**One way investors are approaching rising rate expectations**\n--------------------------------------------------------------\n\nInvestors in the MMKT Australian Cash Plus Active ETF  have received an additional 0.37% per year in returns over the RBA cash rate since the fund started.\n\nThis compares favourably with 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month term deposits, while still offering daily access to cash and settlement through the ASX in two business days.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/word-image-84230-3.webp)Source: RBA, Betashares.

MMKT shows estimated YTM net of the fund’s management costs. **Past performance is not indicative of future performance**.\\*1 month TD rate has averaged a yield of between 2.4% and 3% below the RBA cash rate over the period\n\nMMKT aims to track the Bloomberg AusBond Bank Bill Index, which moves ahead of official RBA decisions. This means the fund’s yield tends to rise as markets anticipate rate hikes, allowing investors to capture opportunities before they’re reflected in traditional deposit accounts.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/word-image-84230-4.webp)Source: Bloomberg, Betashares.

Yield will vary and may be lower at time of investment. **Past performance is not indicative of future performance**.\n\nFor investors, the broader takeaway is that markets tend to move ahead of official decisions. Thinking about how cash is positioned in those periods can help ensure portfolios stay aligned with changing conditions. \n\nUnlike term deposits, an investment in the Fund does not receive the benefit of any government guarantee.

you’d prefer to listen to this week’s edition in podcast form, please click the below player:\n\nUS stocks slipped last week, reflecting US-Iran tensions and AI-related concerns. \n----------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/table1-1.webp)\n\nGlobal week in review: Iran tensions and the software meltdown\n--------------------------------------------------------------\n\nGlobal stocks continued to nervously grind higher last week. The corporate earnings and economic growth outlook still remain encouraging, underpinned by a lift in a key US manufacturing index last week. Countering this however are simmering US-Iran tensions and the ‘[creative destruction](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp2AFMSg9iQ)‘ taking place in the US technology sector.\n\nWith regards to **Iran**, all of the US’ talk of supporting protesters appear to have disappeared following another brutal crackdown. Instead, the US is now focused on striking another nuclear deal with the threat of further military strikes as its bargaining chip. Talks progressed last week and the world is awaiting the outcome. History suggests however any US strike would be a one-day wonder for markets – although given we don’t know when and if another strike will come, it leaves investors nervous.  \n\nThen we have new question marks around the AI boom, which has been a tailwind for large-cap US technology stocks since late 2022. Along with concerns over valuations, debt funding and the ultimate Mag-7 return from their massive investments, the latest concern is ‘[**SaaSpocalypse**](https://www.forbes.com/sites/donmuir/2026/02/04/300-billion-evaporated-the-saaspocalypse-has-begun/)‘. The new fear is that many of the world’s leading software as a service (SaaS) companies will have their business models destroyed by easier and cheaper coding offered by AI services.\n\nAfter all, if coding is so easy, much cheaper software services could soon become available and/or many businesses might find they can develop their own inhouse solutions. But while that may be true, it’s also possible that existing SaaS players could equally avail themselves of these cheaper coding opportunities – thereby cutting costs and retaining their existing customers. Switching costs from systems already embedded into business operations may also not be easy. The clear losers, unfortunately, appears to be run-of-the-mill human coders. We will see! \n\nOutside of the US, early polling suggests **Japan’s Liberal Democratic Party** enjoyed a big win in Sunday’s elections. If the LDP secures a ruling majority, it will likely fuel further optimism about economic reforms and fiscal stimulus – helping support the ongoing outperformance in Japanese equities.\n\nGlobal week ahead: US payrolls & inflation\n------------------------------------------\n\nA short-lived US government shutdown delayed last week’s release of the January **payrolls report.** It is now scheduled for this Thursday, with a job gain of 70k expected, keeping the unemployment rate steady at 4.4%.  Markets are currently quite nervous about the softening in the US labour market, so a strong result would be reassuring whereas a weak report could lower bond yields and raise talk of a near-term Fed rate cut.\n\n**US retail sales** and the **NFIB small business survey** will also provide important updates on the health (or otherwise) of the US economy. \n\nAlso important this week will be the US **consumer price index** (CPI) report for January. Markets anticipate another fairly benign monthly gain of 0.3% for core CPI, which would see annual growth ease from 2.6% to 2.5%.\n\n**Note:** The Fed’s preferred underlying inflation measure – the private consumption expenditure deflator (PCED) excluding food and energy – was running at an annual pace of 2.8% in November. Stripping out tariff effects, one could argue US inflation is not too far from the Fed’s 2% target – although one risk in coming months is if more US companies finally start to pass on the tariff costs they have been shouldering so far. Several groups, including Goldman Sachs, say that 90-95% of the annualised US$250 billion increase in tariff revenues so far has been paid by US businesses and consumers (foreign suppliers have not cut their prices). Businesses have been sharing around 60% of this domestic burden to date. \n\nGlobal equity trends: the great rotation continues\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nThe MSCI All-Country World Equity Index actually edged up 0.1% last week, supported by strength in Japan, while the S&P 500 and NASDAQ-100 declined 0.1% and 1.9% respectively. Value stocks also handily beat growth stocks, and technology underperformed. All up, the ‘great rotation’ remains alive and well.\n\nIndeed, since the end of October 2025, we’ve seen underperformance of US/growth/technology, replaced by strength in Japan, emerging markets and small caps. Sadly, Australia’s trend of underperformance (in currency hedged terms) continues despite renewed optimism in the resources sector. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/table2-1.webp) \n\nAustralian week in review: hawkish RBA\n--------------------------------------\n\nAustralian shares fell last week, not helped by the RBA’s rate hike and the risk of more to come.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/table3-1.webp)\n\nAs I expected following the hot Q4 CPI report, last week’s major highlight was the [**RBA’s** decision](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/rba-decision-february-2026/) to lift interest rates – which the market had as a 70% chance. The reason for the RBA’s decision was pretty clear: it feels some of the lift in inflation in H2 2025 reflected the broad-based rebound in demand pressing on limited spare capacity, so higher rates were needed to reign in that demand and ease pricing pressures. \n\nIs there more to come? The RBA’s own forecasts assume uncomfortably high underlying inflation in H1 2026, even with the market’s expectation of one further rate hike. This suggests the RBA’s own base case is likely that it will raise rates at least once more – likely in May – if the Q1 2026 CPI in late April has another hot reading for trimmed mean inflation (say a gain of 0.8% or more).\n\nI’m hopeful that more of the recent lift in underlying inflation reflects a one-off restoration of crimped profit margins in new home building and consumer products – not to mention airline/hotel profiteering during the Ashes cricket test series. If so, there’s a good chance the Q1 CPI could surprise on the downside – but it’s far from a done deal!   \n\nAustralian week ahead: RBA finger on the trigger\n------------------------------------------------\n\nWe’ll get important updates on the state of the consumer with the February Westpac consumer sentiment survey on Wednesday and the December ABS Household Spending Indicator today.\n\nWhile sentiment is likely to have weakened further, estimated household spending has been quite firm in the months leading up to December 2025 (although this may partly reflect an earlier start to sales activity). Strong consumer spending is not what the RBA wants to see at present.\n\nAlso of interest will be Q4 housing finance commitments, given the strong upturn we saw through the course of 2025. Again, strength in housing finance – especially investor lending – is not something the RBA would welcome. \n\nWith regards to the RBA itself, two key senior officials also speak this week.         \n\nAustralian equity trends\n------------------------\n\nThere were not many places to hide on the Australian equity market last week, with the technology sector again hit hard – although financials actually rose 1.5% while consumer staples were flat.\n\nThat said, a rotation from financials to resources remains broadly in place, although the recent outperformance of small caps unwound somewhat last week.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/table4.webp)\n\nHave a great week!\n------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2952,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2134,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

Ottobrini spent years researching individual stocks. He took courses, studied company financials and followed markets closely. He even managed to deliver a 20% return over four years.\n\nBut the journey wasn’t smooth.\n\nHe sold Netflix too early at a loss, dabbled in micro-cap stocks and invested in a 120-year-old engineering firm that later collapsed entirely. While the education helped, it couldn’t eliminate the stress.\n\nAfter selling his portfolio to help buy a property, Rodolfo and his partner decided to try something different: ETFs.\n\n“I saw how easy and manageable it was to invest in ETFs,” he says.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/word-image-83345-1-1-1400x1009.webp)\n\n_Rodolfo (right). (Source: Supplied)_\n\nSince then, Rodolfo has switched his approach entirely. His ETF portfolio, which has now been running for more than two years, is up 34% – delivering better results than his stock-picking years, in less time and with far less stress. For him, that extra growth has brought his goal of a second property deposit months closer.\n\n“For some people it can take years to reach a savings goal,” he says. “With ETFs, the growth can be so good it puts you maybe one or two years ahead of your goal.”\n\nInvesting is helping him save for property number two\n-----------------------------------------------------\n\n15 years ago, investing wasn’t on Rodolfo’s radar. “I was young and broke,” he laughed.\n\nNow 40 and working as a real estate leasing consultant, his goal is clear: save for a second property deposit. “This extra money is bringing me closer to having enough for a deposit,” he says.\n\nHis long term plan combines both worlds.\n\n“The plan is to accumulate wealth with ETFs, invest in property and have a mix of both,” he says. “It doesn’t need to be a million – I just need to be financially stable.”\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/word-image-83345-2-1-1400x2489.webp)\n\n_Rodolfo and his partner. (Source: Supplied)_\n\nRodolfo’s portfolio reflects a philosophy born from his stock picking years: invest only in companies “that are producing something that grows”. It’s why he holds NDQ Nasdaq 100 ETF and Betashares Nasdaq Next Gen 100 ETF (ASX: JNDQ) as well as Betashares Global Defense and Security ETF (ASX: ARMR) as a diversification play. Of course, Rodolfo’s portfolio picks are based on his particular preferences and circumstances. They are not a recommendation to adopt any investment strategy.\n\nHe’s also happy to adjust. Earlier this year, he sold his holdings in a robotics ETF that wasn’t performing as well as he expected and switched into an AI-focused fund instead.\n\nTechnology remains his clear preference.\n\n“I like technology stocks because I feel they’re the ones with the most potential. In the future, I’ll probably pivot to focus more on investing in dividend ETFs,” he says.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/word-image-83345-3-1.webp)\n\n_Source: Supplied_\n\nFrom Pokémon cards to ETFs\n--------------------------\n\nRodolfo’s not just an investor – he’s become an investing evangelist. At a recent New Year’s Eve party, his brother’s friend mentioned he was investing in Pokémon cards to build wealth. When Rodolfo suggested ETFs instead, the friend dismissed the idea, saying they don’t grow much.\n\nSo, Rodolfo opened his Betashares Direct app and showed him his portfolio.\n\nBut what really landed was the mindset.\n\n“You put in maybe $200, $300 and you see it going up maybe 5%. Rather than buying an extra video game or pair of shoes, you think: do I need that instant gratification, or would I invest it in something that’s going to grow?”\n\nHis friend downloaded it that night and since then more of Rodolfo’s friends have started their own ETF portfolios. For Rodolfo, the contrast with his stock-picking days couldn’t be clearer.\n\n“With ETFs, if one company goes bust, you still have many other holdings,” he says. “It’s more manageable and far less stressful.”\n\nSometimes the smartest move isn’t picking better stocks – it’s choosing a better way to invest.\n\nAlways keep in mind that all investments carry risks and investment values can go down as well as up.\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2820,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2058,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

past year delivered a rare convergence of macro trends. Gold reached record highs, critical minerals surged, Asian tech stocks saw a re-rating and investors began seeing the results of a long-awaited rotation away and into high-quality small and mid-cap companies.\n\nThose shifts helped drive standout returns across a number of investment themes. But as with any performance recap, it’s important to remember that past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance, and that one-year results can be heavily influenced by short-term market conditions. In addition, the returns on many of the ETFs discussed in this article can be expected to be more volatile (i.e. vary up and down) compared to a broad global shares exposure, given their concentrated exposure.\n\nIt’s also worth noting that many of the ETFs listed below are designed to play a satellite role within a diversified portfolio, rather than serve as core holdings. Betashares’ Product Disclosure Statements generally describe satellite exposures as forming a smaller proportion of a portfolio, alongside diversified core allocations, consistent with a core–satellite portfolio approach.\n\nBefore making any investment decision, we recommend you consider the risks and other features of each ETF, as detailed in the applicable Target Market Determination and Product Disclosure Statement, available at www.betashares.com.au.This article may include opinions, views and other forward-looking statements which are subject to various uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially. You should therefore not place undue reliance on such statements. No assurance is given that any of the companies in an ETF’s portfolio will remain in the portfolio or will be profitable investments. \n\n| **Betashares’ Top Performing ETFs – 2025** |\n| --- |\n| Name | Ticker | 1-year Fund Return | 5-year Fund/Index Return (p.a.) |\n| Betashares Global Gold Miners Currency Hedged ETF | MNRS | 148.8% | 20.2% |\n| Betashares Energy Transition Metals ETF | XMET | 96.3% | 21.19%\\* |\n| Betashares Gold Bullion Currency Hedged ETF | QAU | 62.7% | 15.5% |\n| Betashares Global Defence ETF | ARMR | 47.9% | 29.93%\\* |\n| Betashares Global Banks Currency Hedged ETF | BNKS | 45.5% | 20.1% |\n| Betashares Asia Technology Tigers ETF | ASIA | 43.7% | 6.5% |\n| Betashares Australian Small Companies Select ETF | SMLL | 36.0% | 8.4% |\n| Betashares Australian Resources Sector ETF | QRE | 34.3% | 11.6% |\n| Betashares Global Uranium ETF | URNM | 33.1% | 30.3%\\* |\n| Betashares Video Games and Esports ETF | GAME | 27.8% | 7%\\* |\n| Betashares Global Royalties ETF | ROYL | 25.8% | 19.81%\\* |\n\nAs at 31 December 2025. **Past performance is not indicative of future performance of any index or fund.** All returns are quoted in Australian dollars using net asset value per unit at the start and end of the specified period and do not reflect brokerage or the bid ask spread that investors incur when buying and selling units on the ASX.

markets grinded higher last year in the face of global trade disruption, growing geopolitical tensions, and market valuation and concentration concerns. Resilient corporate earnings and stronger than expected economic data in the US buoyed headline index levels, alongside AI-related investments.\n\nHowever, there are significant questions remaining heading into 2026 for investors.\n\n*   Will global policy rates diverge?\n*   What do geopolitical developments in Iran, Venezuela and Greenland mean for markets?\n*   Are we in an AI bubble?\n*   And will the US labour market continue to weaken?\n\nWithin this context, we asked six Betashares investment experts to nominate a chart that they think investors should be watching for the year ahead.\n\n#1 Global policy divergence\n---------------------------\n\n### Nominated by: Chamath De Silva, Head of Fixed Income\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/word-image-83361-1.webp) Source: Bloomberg, Betashares. As at 16 January 2026.\n\n**Why it’s important**: One of the key developments in fixed income markets has been the divergence that’s emerged in global policy rate expectations following a period of largely synchronised easing from major central banks.\n\nMarkets are expecting countries like Australia, Canada, and New Zealand to join the Bank of Japan (BoJ) in adopting a tightening bias amid resurgent inflation pressures, whilst the US Federal Reserve is expected to continue cutting rates. Whether reality plays out this way remains to be seen, but policy divergence will have major implications for fixed income returns, and for FX markets and currency hedging decisions.\n\n\\# 2 Can the RBA keep inflation in check?\n-----------------------------------------\n\n### Nominated by: David Bassanese, Chief Economist\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Bass-Chart-1400x768.webp)\n\nSource: [Australian Bureau of Statistics](https://www.abs.gov.au/statistics/economy/price-indexes-and-inflation/consumer-price-index-australia/latest-release). As at 7 January 2026.\n\n**Why it’s important**: Critical to the outlook for the Australian economy in 2026 is the outlook for inflation. Despite a recent rebound in price pressures, we anticipate temporary factors such as a lift in global food prices and home builder discounts to fade. Renewed interest rate concerns may also place competitive pressure on profit margins and on consumer spending, limiting underlying price pressures in 2026. Given these factors we maintain a non-consensus base case for one RBA rate cut this year which in turn should continue to support the economy.\n\n#3 Is US employment growth a canary in the coal mine or another false recession indicator?\n------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n### Nominated by: Tom Wickenden, Investment Strategist\n\n ![A graph showing the growth of the us employment rate\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/a-graph-showing-the-growth-of-the-us-employment-ra.webp) Source: FRED, Bloomberg. November 1975 to November 2025\n\n**Why it’s important:** The total number of jobs in the US increased by 0.6% over the past year, the slowest growth rate since March 2021. Over the past 50 years, this level of weakness has always preceded a recession and a spike in unemployment.\n\nHowever, the US labour market is sending mixed signals, complicated by the government shutdown, government job cuts, deportations, and reduced immigration.\n\nDoes weak US employment hold the key to the outlook for the US economy in 2026 or could this be yet another false recession indicator, following inverted yield curves in 2022 and the Sahm rule being triggered in 2024?\n\n#4 Will the AI capex juggernaut continue?\n-----------------------------------------\n\n### Nominated by: Hugh Lam, Investment Strategist\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/word-image-83361-3.webp) Source: Bloomberg. As at 2 January 2026.\n\n**Why it’s important**: Much of the AI capex boom is currently being funded by internally generated cash flows from US megacap tech, however concerns have risen with many tapping the debt markets for cheaper sources of funding¹.\n\nThat said, these companies still have room to issue more debt given the strength of their balance sheets and have net debt to cash flow ratios less than zero.\n\n#5 Investing beyond the US\n--------------------------\n\n### Nominated by: Cameron Gleeson, Senior Investment Strategist\n\n### ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Cam-Chart-1400x942.webp)\n\nSource: Factset, Betashares. As at 13 January 2026.\n\n**Why it’s important**: Global investors have been underweight Emerging Markets over the past few years, but sentiment and flows appear to be at a turning point. Emerging Market fundamentals are the stand out globally – offering similar earnings growth to the Nasdaq 100 at half the cost.[[²]](#post-83361-footnote-2)\n\n#6 Friend or Foe?\n-----------------\n\n### Nominated by: James Fleiter, Director – Private Assets\n\n![A graph of a financial growth\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/a-graph-of-a-financial-growth-ai-generated-conten.webp)\n\nSource: Fitch Ratings, S&P Capital IQ. NDFI – non-depository financial institution. Note: Data reflect balances only for banks with total assets greater than $10 billion, which comprise 98% of overall NDFI lending.\n\n**Why it’s important**: The narrative permeating the media is that private credit is competing with banks, however the reality appears to be that banks are working in lockstep with private credit. Loans to non-bank financial institutions (NBFIs) is the fastest growing segment of bank balance sheets implying that banks have just found a more capital efficient way to access the same underlying credit risk.\n\nFootnotes:\n\n1\\.

  The Australian ETF industry closed the year with an all time high in funds under management (FUM), hitting a range of new records in terms of assets and net flows – including inflows to International and Australian equities, fixed income and gold\n*   **FUM:** The Australian ETF industry ended the year at an all time high, with the total industry market capitalisation sitting at $330.6B, representing 34.2% year on year growth. The industry grew $84.3B in 2025 – an industry record in terms of annual growth\n*   **Net Flows:** ETF industry flows shattered the record set in 2024, with net new money for the year of $53B, well clear of the $30B of net flows received in 2024 (it in fact passed that mark in August)\n*   **Trading:** The Australian ETF industry continued to experience strong trading values, annual ASX ETF trading value increased 39% on 2024. In total, a record $196B of ETF value was traded on the ASX (compared to $141B in 2024)\n*   **Issuer Flows:** Flows remain concentrated despite an increase in the number of new issuers joining the market. Vanguard, Betashares and iShares were the top three issuers in terms of flows this year, recording ~$37.5B in net inflows between them. **Collectively, the top 3 issuers this year (Vanguard, Betashares and iShares) took over 70% of industry flows.**\n*   **Product Launches:** It was another big year for new product development, with a record 71 new ETFs launching during 2025, while 15 funds closed during the year – for a net product change of 56 ETFs\n\n*   **Active/Passive flows:** In terms of product types, 2025 was all about passive investing, with funds of this type receiving $38.9B in inflows. Smart beta funds received $8.2B while Active ETFs were third at $6.3B (despite a significant number of Active ETF launches)\n*   **Flows by category:** All major asset classes broke records in terms of net flows during 2025. Investors favoured International Equities, followed by Australian Equities and then Fixed Income ETFs. Gold ETFs also had their best year on record in terms of inflows, receiving $1.8B in 2025 – passing the previous record set in 2020.\n    *   **International equities ETFs** remained in first place receiving **$20.9B** of net inflows (v. $15.1B in 2024)\n    *   **Australian Equities ETFs** came in 2ⁿᵈ with $13.2B in flows (vs $7.1B in 2024)\n    *   **Fixed Income ETFs** came in 3ʳᵈ, with $11.6B received (vs $6.1B in 2024)\n*   **Performance:** It was gold miner and energy transition metal ETFs that topped the performance tables for the ETF industry for 2025. Specifically, the MNRS Global Gold Miners Currency Hedged ETF  topped the performance table with a 148.84% return during 2025.\n*   **Industry Forecast:** In our year-end report for 2024, we wrote: _“_Looking ahead, we expect the ETF industry will exceed $300B by the end of 2025 should market conditions remain positive_.”_\n\nWhile we were correct regarding positive inflows and market growth, we again underestimated the scale of net flows by some margin, while market conditions assisted the growth in market size.\n\nWith respect to 2026, we believe the ETF industry will pass $400B during 2026 with monthly inflows to remain consistently above $5B. We also forecast that the industry will exceed $500 billion during 2028 – although it’s increasingly likely that this may even occur in 2027.\n\nMarket Size and Growth: End of Year 2025\n----------------------------------------\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Screenshot-2026-01-14-151715.webp)\n\n### Market Cap\n\n*   Australian ETFs Market Cap (ASX + CBOE): **$330.6B – new all time high**\n*   ASX CHESS Market Cap: $282.5B¹\n*   Market Cap increase for the year: **34.2%, $84.3B – industry record $ annual growth**\n\n### Net Flows\n\n*   Net flows for the year: **$53B** – significant increase in net flows compared to $30B last year\n\n### Issuers and Products\n\n*   **453** Exchange Traded Products trading on the ASX & CBOE\n*   New products: **71** new products launched in the year\n*   There are currently **65** issuers of ETFs in Australia\n\n### Trading Value\n\n*   Annual ASX trading value was a record $196B (**39%** higher compared to 2024)\n\n### Performance\n\nIt was gold miner and energy transition metal ETFs that topped the performance tables for the ETF industry for 2025. Specifically, the Betashares Global Gold Miners Currency Hedged ETF (ASX: MNRS) led with a 148.84% return during 2025.\n\n¹Since February 2023, the ASX started reporting additional data on a CHESS-only basis. The primary use of such data is that it will exclude, amongst other things, the FUM and Flows in ‘dual class’ Active ETFs and potentially provide a more accurate picture of exchange traded activity.\n\nTop 10 products: End of Year 2025\n---------------------------------\n\n| **Ticker** | **Product** | **Issuer** | **Market Cap** | **Rank Movement** | **2024 Rank** | **2025 Rank** |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| VAS | Vanguard Australian Shares Index ETF | Vanguard | $22,585,311,471 | – | 1 | 1 |\n| VGS | Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF | Vanguard | $14,192,453,264 | +1 | 3 | 2 |\n| IVV | iShares S&P 500 ETF | iShares | $13,110,350,204 | \\-1 | 2 | 3 |\n| A200 | Betashares Australia 200 ETF | Betashares | $8,879,818,425 | +2 | 6 | 4 |\n| QUAL | VanEck Vectors MSCI World Ex-Australia Quality ETF | VanEck | $8,069,512,690 | – | 5 | 5 |\n| IOZ | iShares Core S&P/ASX 200 ETF | iShares | $7,798,195,765 | +1 | 7 | 6 |\n| NDQ | BetaShares NASDAQ 100 ETF | Betashares | $7,690,159,961 | +1 | 8 | 7 |\n| DACE | Dimensional Australian Core Equity Trust (Managed Fund) | Dimensional | $6,434,462,640 | +3 | 11 | 8 |\n| MGOC | Magellan Global Fund (Open Class) (Managed Fund) | Magellan | $6,372,438,808 | \\-5 | 4 | 9 |\n| VTS | Vanguard US Total Market Shares Index ETF | Vanguard | $6,361,059,526 | \\-1 | 9 | 10 |\n\nThere was one new entrant to the top funds leaderboard over 2025.

2026 begins, it's worth taking a fresh look at your investing practices and considering specific actions that could accelerate your wealth-building journey - whether you're mapping out a formal strategy or simply ready to be more intentional with your portfolio.\n\n**Resolution 1: Review your foundation asset**\n\nA strong portfolio starts with a solid core. Whether you’re starting fresh or revisiting old holdings, check whether your foundation asset still fits your path. One purposeful change now beats months of drift.\n\n**Resolution 2: Consider going more global**\n\nAustralian shares are only a small part of global markets. If your portfolio is mostly exposed to the ASX 200, expanding internationally opens access to sectors and opportunities that don't exist or are limited here.\n\n**Resolution 3: Upgrade your cash**\n\nWith inflation still running at 3–4%, idle cash is slowly losing value. Small changes to how you hold cash – e.g. switching from a term deposit to a cash-plus ETF – can make a noticeable difference over time.\n\n**Resolution 4: Set and forget your wealth habit**\n\nBuilding wealth comes from consistency, not timing the market perfectly. Regular, automated contributions can help you grow your portfolio without extra effort.\n\n**Resolution 5: Clean up your portfolio**\n\nIf your portfolio has grown, fees might be quietly trimming your gains.

Australian portfolios are heavily weighted to local assets: Australian shares, property, bank hybrids and domestic ETFs.\n\nWhile home bias is understandable, it often means overlooking economies that account for most of the world’s population and host some of the fastest-growing companies. And right now, some of the most compelling growth stories are unfolding in markets many Australian investors have never seriously considered.\n\nThe comfortable default\n-----------------------\n\nAccording to the _ASX Australian Investor Study 2023_, 58% of Australian investors hold ASX shares directly, but only 16% hold international stocks.\n\nWhen Australians do venture overseas, most of that money likely flows into US-focused ETFs that track companies like Nvidia, Microsoft and Apple. This is not to say that doesn’t make sense. These are companies we use every day, and the US market is the largest, most liquid and most covered by financial media.\n\nBut even portfolios that feel “global” often are not. 72% of the MSCI ACWI Index, the widely quoted benchmark for global equities, is comprised of American companies. The Magnificent Seven make up more than 20% of the index.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/EM-1-1400x841.webp)\n\nSource: [MSCI](https://www.msci.com/documents/10199/8d97d244-4685-4200-a24c-3e2942e3adeb). As of 28 November 2025. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. You cannot invest directly in an index.\n\nMeanwhile, 6.9 billion people live in countries that barely register in most portfolios. And some of them are building impressive businesses that could shape the next decade of wealth creation. For years, the scepticism made sense. But the gap between perception and reality is widening.\n\nToday’s emerging economies are home to some of the world’s most impressive growth stories. For investors looking to build wealth over the next decade, these markets – and the companies within them – are becoming important to consider.\n\nGrowth stories hiding in plain sight\n------------------------------------\n\n**India** is now the world’s fifth-largest economy, with a median age of just 28, ten years younger than Australia’s. That young population is anticipated to create a demographic tailwind that will drive a surge in demand for connectivity. One company catering to that demand is Reliance Jio. Launched in 2016, Jio has since grown to 482 million subscribers and is now the world’s third-largest mobile network operator worth an [estimated US$170 billion](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-06/bankers-said-to-see-reliance-s-jio-value-as-high-as-170-billion). Beyond rumours of an IPO, the company is currently developing a 6G network for the subcontinent.\n\nOr consider **Brazil**, where the digital transformation is reshaping how hundreds of millions of people bank and shop. MercadoLibre, a digital marketplace, operates across 18 Latin American countries and processes 57 purchases and [360 transactions every second](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-02-20/mercadolibre-blows-away-estimates-in-record-quarter-to-end-2024#:~:text=360%20transactions%20every%20second%2C%20according%20to%20the,'show%2Dme'%20moments%20in%20its%20recent%20history%2C%20often). It is now so big that it has been described by business web magazine Quartr as “[the digital backbone of Latin America](https://quartr.com/insights/edge/mercado-libre-the-digital-backbone-of-latin-america)”.\n\nThen there’s **Mexico**, which is experiencing a structural economic shift that’s easy to miss if you’re only reading Australian financial news. The country attracted [US$31 billion](https://mexicobusiness.news/finance/news/mexico-fdi-hits-record-us31-billion-1h24-week-finance) in foreign direct investment in just the first half of 2024, driven by ‘nearshoring’. Nearshoring is a phenomenon which sees some Western companies moving their production away from China to places like Mexico in order to build more resilient supply chains closer to US markets. This could provide a boon for local companies like FEMSA, which runs the OXXO convenience store chain.\n\nThese three examples barely scratch the surface. Similar transformations are happening across Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe and dozens of other markets that simply don’t receive coverage in Australian media.\n\nThe case for building wealth in emerging markets\n------------------------------------------------\n\nIt’s not just the macroeconomic story that makes emerging markets a genuinely compelling investment idea. Emerging market companies are currently trading at significantly lower valuations than their developed market peers on a forward price-to-earnings basis. At the same time, emerging economies are projected to [grow at 4% annually](https://www.imf.org/en/publications/weo/issues/2025/10/14/world-economic-outlook-october-2025) versus just 1.5% for developed economies.\n\n![A graph of stock market\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/a-graph-of-stock-market-ai-generated-content-may-1.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. As of 17 November 2025. Valuation discount based on the differential between the MSCI World Index’s 12-month forward price-to-earnings ratio and the MSCI Emerging Markets Index’s 12-month forward price-to-earnings ratio. Past performance is not an indication of future performance. You cannot invest directly in an index.\n\nEmerging markets offer faster-growing economies, younger demographics and valuations trading at a discount to developed markets. And contrary to common assumptions among investors, emerging market assets have actually outperformed developed market assets over the past 25 years¹. In fact, 2025 has been the best performing year for emerging market assets since 2017².\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/EM-2-1-1400x934.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. As at 9 December 2025. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. You cannot invest directly in an index.\n\nThis is not to suggest genuine risks don’t exist. Currency volatility, political uncertainty and regulatory changes are all important factors to consider. But developed markets face instability too. Every market has risks. The question is whether you’re assessing emerging market risks objectively, or they just feel riskier because they’re less familiar.\n\nEvery market has its risks. The question is whether an investor is assessing emerging market risks objectively, or it just feels riskier because these economies are less familiar.\n\nHow to access this\n------------------\n\nThe good news is investors do not need to become experts on Indian conglomerates or navigate Brazilian regulatory frameworks. Betashares MSCI Emerging Markets Complex ETF (BEMG) provides exposure to hundreds of companies across 24 countries in a single trade for a low cost.\n\nThe fund holds leading companies like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (the world’s largest chip manufacturer), Tencent (China’s social media and gaming giant), Samsung Electronics as well as some of the firms mentioned earlier.³ BEMG is designed as a strategic allocation for investors building diversified, growth-oriented portfolios. For investors who are ready to position their portfolio where tomorrow’s growth may actually be happening, you can explore BEMG’s holdings, strategy and philosophy through Betashares Direct.\n\nThe bottom line\n---------------\n\nMost portfolios weren’t deliberately designed to exclude emerging markets. They evolved based on what was visible and accessible: the ASX, plus some familiar US names.\n\nWhile this is understandable, the next decade’s wealth won’t be built by ignoring where the world is actually growing. And right now, much of that growth is happening in places that don’t make the evening news.\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2764,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":273,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":506,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":187,"attributes":{"symbol":"BEMG","name":"MSCI Emerging Markets Complex ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Access the growth potential of emerging markets","description_long":null,"fee":null,"createdAt":"2025-08-25T00:40:39.383Z","updatedAt":"2025-08-25T00:46:37.497Z","publishedAt":"2025-08-25T00:46:37.489Z","symbol_openfigi":"BEMG:AU","tags":{"data":[{"id":55,"attributes":{"tag":"emerging","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:33.358Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:33.358Z","mutations":"emerging-markets"}}]}}}}}]},{"id":2759,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1990,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

Salaries for expert AI programmers have become mind-boggling. Valuations for companies associated with the AI boom have grown both in public and private markets.\n\nUnderstandably, it’s led to the obvious question: is the AI boom economically justified or merely another bubble in the making? If it’s a bubble, how close are we to the top and what will be the potential aftermath? While colleagues have explored the contours of the current boom from both an equity market and credit perspective, this note considers the issues from a more theoretical and historical context.  \n\nThe conclusion: the AI boom is likely just the latest in a long line of major technological advances that will eventually benefit the wider economy. History suggests, however, that such advances often result in disruptive boom-bust dynamics in both financial markets and the economy before these wider benefits – and eventual corporate winners – become evident.\n\nGiven human psychology and the basic economics of technological advancement haven’t changed, there’s little reason to suggest this time will be any different. Beyond the ultimate good news of what this new technology will bring to the economy, the short-run solace is that we’re likely only around mid-way within the latest boom/bust cycle, meaning it should likely play out for a while longer before the shake-out eventually happens. But as investors we need to be prepared, and simply not view this boom through rose-coloured glasses. \n\nWhy do new major technologies lead to boom-bust cycles?\n-------------------------------------------------------\n\nTo my mind, and after reviewing the history of past technological breakthroughs – such as railways, electricity, cars, radios and even the internet itself – there seem to be three fundamental reasons why boom/bust dynamics happen. \n\n**Fast supply ramp up due to ‘winner take all’ markets resulting from scale and network economies**\n---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nFor starters, many new technological innovations offer ‘first mover advantage’ to those companies that seek to exploit the new opportunity. One reason is that due to the large fixed costs of building out the required supply infrastructure, there are benefits in getting big fast thanks to economies of scale, meaning your per unit costs of delivery fall.\n\nThis has been true in building the first railroads late last century, the poles and wires needed for electricity, car and radio factories along with the fibre optic cables needed for internet transmission. Today, there appear to be scale economies in building out data centres and developing expertise in chip design.  \n\nA second reason is that there are also often network economies in getting to customers first – they get comfortable with your services and so are less eager to switch, and the value of a network of users grows in the eyes of each user when more are using it (also known as Metcalfe’s Law). Such network effects were most evident in the case of telephones, core computer software, online marketplaces and social media platforms.\n\nAt this stage at least, there’s little obvious network effect in choosing one AI platform over others (e.g. ChatGPT vs Gemini) apart from user familiarity or habit, but that could change as more consumer and business AI applications are brought to market.\n\nA third reason is that tech-savvy suppliers entering a new market usually assume overly rapid adoption by the broader market. That’s because they themselves see the clear benefits and assume most others will also. They’re also lulled into early over-optimism by the initial uptake of their services by the small minority of consumers who are experimental ‘early adopters’.  \n\nGiven the alluringly high ‘winner-takes-all’ stakes at play, there’s rarely a shortage of hopefuls entering a new industry – and associated financing – despite the likely high failure rate. Much like buying a lottery ticket, the downside is capped while the upside could potentially be huge.\n\nAll up, the nature of the first mover advantage and overoptimism with regard to early rewards suggests a ‘gold rush’ mentality among potential suppliers, which may encourage excess investment and overcapacity. A stylised example of a boom-bust capex cycle is provided below.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/capex.webp)\n\nSource: Betashares\n\nIt’s worth noting, however, this overinvestment is not due to irrationality. It’s due to the winner takes all stakes at play and the asymmetric lottery-sized returns if a company ends up among the winners.   \n\n**Buyer hesitancy and slower than hoped initial consumer uptake**\n-----------------------------------------------------------------\n\nDespite the rush of suppliers into a new market, history suggests demand – beyond the small core of enthusiastic early adopters – is usually slower to emerge than initially hoped. The vast bulk of consumers are not tech-savvy and take time to adopt new technologies.\n\nWhy? Early supply offerings can be expensive and not easy to use. Suppliers of existing products – at risk of disruption – may heighten consumer uncertainty by warning of safety concerns (such as having an electric current running through your home or using your credit card online). There’s usually a lack of especially useful consumer-friendly applications (e.g. spreadsheet software for personal computers) and/or supporting infrastructure (roads and petrol stations for cars). \n\nIn marketing parlance, the time lag before demand moves from early adopters to the majority of consumers is known as the **S-curve**. Once the majority get comfortable with a new product, adoption can be rapid, but it usually takes longer to reach this broader market than initially hoped. \n\nA stylised example of the consumer S-curve is provided below.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/S-CURVE.webp)\n\nSource: Betashares\n\n**The time of reckoning and the aftermath**\n-------------------------------------------\n\nCombining excessive early supply/investment and slower-than-hoped consumer adoption usually leads to an industry shake-out. Finance for the weakest of the many early hopeful suppliers is cut back and the investment build-out tapers off. Elevated valuations for listed companies offering blue sky potential are brought back to earth – and many fail.\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/BOOM-BUST.webp) Source: Betashares \n\nBut the companies that survive often get to take advantage of a glut of supply capacity just as demand from the majority of consumers finally begins to ramp up. Society is eventually better off with new forms of transport, energy and information exchange. And for those producers still in the game, winners do often take all until either pro-competition laws or new disruptions limit their advantage.  \n\nThe AI boom – where are we today?\n---------------------------------\n\nAs noted in the introduction, there seems little reason to think the current AI technology boom will end much differently from those in the past – suppliers will rush to provide products and consumers may be slow to respond. There will eventually be a shakeout, with the few winners remaining and society left to enjoy the widely dispersed productivity benefits. \n\nBut there are also good grounds to think we’re not yet in the final innings of the boom stage.\n\n*   The investment boom is still ramping up with the major hyperscalers still planning to invest even more, at this stage, for the next few years. \n*   Valuations of AI-related companies – apart from perhaps a few exceptions – are not yet at nosebleed levels.\n*   There’s yet be a major rush of AI hopefuls listing on the share market.     \n\nBased on the last stylised diagram above, I’d judge us somewhere between 2 and 4 on the timeline – perhaps a 3 (out of 5)!","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2758,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1988,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

Australia’s bank hybrid market sunsets over the next few years, income investors are facing a gap in their portfolios.\n\nThe good news? There is another asset which can fill this gap, one many investors may not have considered: Tier 2 subordinated debt. These bonds offer attractive yields with 5-years-to-call Big 4 Tier 2 bank bonds typically yielding 100 to 200 basis points (bps) more than the RBA cash rate. For income investors seeking both yield and more stability than bank hybrids, subordinated debt offers a compelling proposition.\n\nBut not all subordinated debt is created equally, and understanding the options in the asset class is crucial.\n\nIntroducing the bank capital structure\n--------------------------------------\n\nTo understand subordinated debt, we first need to look at the bank capital structure itself. Put simply, the bank capital structure determines who gets paid and in what order should a financial institution go insolvent. As an investor moves from the top of the capital structure downwards, returns and yields typically increase as each level acts as a line of defence for the levels above it. The more risk an investor takes by the assets they choose the more yield they could receive – as long as the institution does not go bust.\n\nAs the diagram below shows, subordinated debt sits in the fourth layer of the capital structure, above hybrids and shares but well below secured debt and deposits. Most retail investors know hybrids and shares well, but subordinated debt remains less familiar.\n\n![A diagram of a financial system\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/a-diagram-of-a-financial-system-ai-generated-cont-2.webp)\n\nSource: Betashares\n\nAll about subordinated debt\n---------------------------\n\nAustralian investors are increasingly turning to subordinated bonds, drawn by attractive yields relative to senior debt, strong credit quality, good liquidity, and upcoming regulatory changes. This final point is especially relevant given that from January 2027, APRA is [phasing out hybrid securities](https://www.apra.gov.au/news-and-publications/apra-to-phase-out-at1-as-eligible-bank-capital) (sometimes called AT1 capital) and forcing banks to meet capital requirements through other means. Tier 2 subordinated debt is one of those means. We have written extensively about the end of the hybrids market which you can [read about here](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/alternatives-to-bank-hybrids/).\n\nThese bonds can also be fixed or floating rate, meaning the interest rates on these bonds can either be the same for the entire life of the bond (fixed) or may change over time (floating). The Betashares Australian Major Bank Subordinated Debt ETF (ASX: BSUB) offers access to this space through investing in floating rate bonds, which may assist in minimising interest rate risk.\n\nWhat investors need to consider about subordinated debt\n-------------------------------------------------------\n\nDespite ranking lower on the capital structure hierarchy, subordinated debt has many of the same higher-quality features as senior bonds. They both offer interest payments and have a clearly defined maturity date at which principal must be repaid.\n\nHaving said this, subordinated debt income does not come with the benefit of franking (whereas hybrids do). In addition, should a bank become no longer viable, interest and capital payments owing to subordinated debtholders can be written off or converted to equity, leaving the investor significantly worse off than when they started. The compensation for this risk is the higher yield that subordinated debt tends to offer.\n\nFinally, it’s worth noting that subordinated debt is typically unsecured, meaning it is not backed by specific assets. Its value depends primarily on the issuer’s overall creditworthiness (in this case, Australia’s Big Four banks).\n\nWhere does it fit in an investor’s portfolio?\n---------------------------------------------\n\nFor income-focused investors concerned by the phasing out of bank hybrids, subordinated debt offers a strategic middle ground.\n\nWhile this transition may feel disruptive, the end of one asset class offers a chance for smart investors to explore high-quality credit income that was once difficult for retail investors to access efficiently.\n\nFor balanced portfolios seeking income while remaining risk-aware, this transparent and cost-effective structure offers a compelling way to maintain bank exposure while potentially reducing volatility compared to traditional hybrid holdings. While it may not exactly match the yields that bank hybrids have offered, it may serve as the next best option for retail investors given the circumstances, not to mention the improved credit quality and lower risk when compared to hybrids.\n\nWhy access Tier 2 debt from the Big Four alone?\n-----------------------------------------------\n\nBSUB provides efficient exposure to Tier 2 subordinated bonds from Australia’s Big Four banks – institutions recognised around the world for their credibility as lenders, strong credit quality and deep liquidity. But why might an investor only look at the Big Four?\n\nFirst, the position of subordinated debt in the capital structure as well as its unsecured nature means that credit risk matters significantly. The Big Four banks are well-capitalised and, in the event of a major crisis, would be more likely to receive assistance from the government and regulators. By contrast, smaller banks may carry lower credit ratings and may be less likely to receive funding from the government in a crisis.\n\nSecond, debt issued by the Big Four banks is large, frequent, well-traded and well-known to investors and advisers alike. In other words, familiarity is a major asset during uncertainty.\n\nFinally, the spread between a 5-years-to-call Big Four Tier 2 bond and a 5-years-to-call Big Four senior bond is generally between 50 to 100 bps. A smaller bank’s Tier 2/senior bond spread is generally tighter, meaning that investors may not receive enough compensation for the additional risk they are taking on.\n\nEarn more from the Big Four\n---------------------------\n\nAs the hybrid market phases out, a rare window is opening. Subordinated debt from Australia’s Big Four banks offers income investors access to opportunities that were once reserved for the big players. For those seeking to maintain quality bank income with greater stability, Tier 2 subordinated bonds represent a compelling substitute for bank hybrids.","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2739,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":270,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":503,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":176,"attributes":{"symbol":"BSUB","name":"Australian Major Bank Subordinated Debt ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Earn attractive monthly income from high quality subordinated bonds issued by the ‘big 4’ Australian banks.","description_long":"Earn attractive monthly income from high quality subordinated bonds issued by the ‘big 4’ Australian banks.\n\n","fee":0.29,"createdAt":"2024-05-27T07:07:15.942Z","updatedAt":"2026-01-08T05:24:43.774Z","publishedAt":"2024-05-27T07:07:19.249Z","symbol_openfigi":null,"tags":{"data":[{"id":44,"attributes":{"tag":"floating-rate","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:31.962Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:31.962Z","mutations":"variable-rate"}},{"id":89,"attributes":{"tag":"defensive","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:38.886Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:19.678Z","mutations":null}},{"id":114,"attributes":{"tag":"banks","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.538Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.538Z","mutations":"banking,bank"}},{"id":134,"attributes":{"tag":"credit","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.342Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.342Z","mutations":"debt"}},{"id":168,"attributes":{"tag":"byhb","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:07.526Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:57.639Z","mutations":null}},{"id":185,"attributes":{"tag":"anz","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:09.385Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:59.299Z","mutations":null}},{"id":178,"attributes":{"tag":"wbc","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:08.896Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:59.321Z","mutations":null}},{"id":334,"attributes":{"tag":"nab","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:32.403Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:18.236Z","mutations":null}},{"id":337,"attributes":{"tag":"big-4","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:32.523Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:18.689Z","mutations":null}},{"id":392,"attributes":{"tag":"cba","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.830Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.830Z","mutations":"commonwealth-bank"}},{"id":1,"attributes":{"tag":"income","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:06:02.686Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.669Z","mutations":"yield,passive-income"}}]}}}}}]},{"id":2686,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1924,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"There are risks associated with an investment in BSUB, including interest rate risk, credit risk, subordinated ranking risk, subordinated bond risk and concentration risk.

are quite familiar with the use of gearing or leverage when it comes to building wealth. For example, every single Australian with a mortgage over a property technically uses borrowed funds to grow their wealth.  \nThis strategy has proven to be the cornerstone of wealth creation for many Australians, provided that the value of the property increases in value by more than the cost of borrowing.  \n\nHowever, with property becoming further out of reach for more Australians, the same strategy can be used for other assets. The answer is yes.\n\nUnderstanding geared ETFs\n----------------------\n\nGeared ETFs are investment funds that use leverage to magnify the returns of an underlying index. For example, a geared ETF might aim to deliver twice the daily return of the S&P ASX 200 Index. If the index rises 1% in a day, the ETF will aim to rise 2%. If the index falls one percent, the ETF will fall 2%.\n\nWhen it comes to ETFs, gearing is managed internally by the fund, meaning investors do not need to borrow directly or manage margin loans.\n\nThe fund combines investor capital with borrowed funds, typically at competitive institutional interest rates, and invests the proceeds in a diversified portfolio of equities. The gearing ratio is actively monitored and adjusted to stay within a target range.\n\n\nWhat is the appeal of gearing?\n----------------------\n\nThe primary appeal of geared ETFs lies in their ability to amplify returns. Over long investment horizons, even modest leverage can significantly boost portfolio growth, provided markets trend upward.\n\n- Geared ETFs also offer a more accessible way to use leverage compared to traditional margin loans.  \n- Investors do not need to borrow directly or manage loan repayments.  \n- The fund handles the gearing internally at institutional interest rates.  \n- Investors simply buy and hold units as they would with any other ETF.\n\n\nThe case for moderately geared ETFs\n----------------------\n\nAlthough gearing has provided a clear pathway to building wealth outside property, the associated volatility can be a deterrent.  \nThis is why a range of moderately geared ETFs was launched.\n\nThese funds aim for a gearing ratio of around 30-40%, offering a balance between enhanced return potential and reduced volatility.\n\nThe Wealth Builder series, including ETFs with exposure to the largest two hundred companies on the ASX, the Nasdaq, and diversified global equity markets, is designed for long term investors who want the benefits of gearing with reduced risk compared to more aggressive leverage.\n\nThis approach can be particularly relevant for self managed super funds and long term investors who want gearing benefits without taking on higher levels of leverage.  \n\nBy limiting the gearing level, these ETFs aim to reduce volatility drag that can occur with daily rebalancing and make them more suitable for long term holding.\n\n\nCombining gearing with dollar cost averaging\n----------------------\n\nWhen starting with little investable capital, financial goals can feel far away. Geared ETFs can potentially accelerate the accumulation process.\n\nHowever, gearing can result in capital erosion during market corrections. One way to help manage this risk is to invest using a dollar cost averaging approach.\n\nProvided you invest consistently, preferably with zero brokerage, and markets appreciate by more than borrowing costs over the long run, DCA can help investors further benefit from compounding.\n\n\nPotential for enhanced franking credits\n----------------------\n\nBy investing in a geared ETF that provides exposure to Australian shares, you may receive more dividend income and more franking credits than if you held an equivalent ungeared portfolio. \n\nThese credits may be used to offset other tax payable or generate a refund depending on personal circumstances.\n\nOptimising outcomes inside super\n----------------------\n\nBuilding wealth and generating income inside superannuation can be advantageous for tax purposes. Where suitable for an SMSF’s strategy and risk tolerance, moderately geared ETFs can be used in several ways:\n\n- Wealth Builder ETFs can make super contributions work harder. For example, they may provide around forty five thousand dollars of market exposure for thirty thousand dollars of invested capital, which aligns with the concessional contributions cap effective one July twenty twenty four.\n- For super balances near proposed thresholds, moderately geared ETFs can help enhance franking credits and provide the ability to buy or sell units on the ASX for flexible cash flow management.\n- Individuals in pension phase who want a specific level of equity exposure can potentially boost pension income by pairing a moderately geared ETF with a lifetime

investing is based on the premise that stocks that have performed well will continue to perform well, and stocks that have performed poorly will continue to perform poorly.\n\nAlongside value and growth, momentum is a ‘rewarded’ style factor backed by academic research which has been shown to persistently generate positive returns over the long-run[1](#post-63617-footnote-1). However, unlike these factors, building a portfolio of stocks with strong momentum does not require any fundamental company information or analysis – all that is required is publicly available stock price returns.\n\nThis naturally raises the question: If a factor like momentum is so well-known and doesn’t require any special access to data or analysis, then how can returns be sustained over the long run? Wouldn’t this source of outperformance be susceptible to being competed away?\n\n**Why does momentum investing work?**\n-------------------------------------\n\nThe initial research on momentum was published by Jegadeesh and Titman in 1993[2](#post-63617-footnote-2) and has been found to be persistent since that time[3](#post-63617-footnote-3) and pervasive across a range of countries[4](#post-63617-footnote-4) and asset classes including equities, currencies, government bonds and commodities[5](#post-63617-footnote-5).\n\nThese are important criteria that an investment factor needs to meet in order to demonstrate it can be a strong and reliable exposure within an investor’s portfolio. If any of these criteria are not met, then a factor may simply exist due to chance alone.\n\nThere are also behavioural and risk-based explanations that can help explain why the momentum factor is persistent and pervasive.\n\n### Behavioural\n\nThere are various investor biases that may create the conditions for stock price momentum:\n\n1.  Cognitive biases like **herding behaviour** says that the buying pressure of investors following the crowd leads to a self-fulfilling prophecy which accelerates the momentum trend and the fear of missing out.\n2.  Another behavioural explanation for the momentum factor is the ‘**limited attention bias**’ that assumes there is a limit to the amount of information an investor can process in a given period. As a result, you would be more likely to act (buy or sell) when there is a large movement in the share price of a company, as this information is readily available and recallable, than when a stock moves in a small and gradual manner. The end result is that investors with this bias tend to buy into a stock that’s going up while selling those that are going down – fueling momentum.\n3.  And finally, the **disposition effect** is the tendency of investors to sell stocks whose price goes up (winning stocks) and hold the stocks whose price goes down (losing stocks).Grinblatt and Han (2005)[6](#post-63617-footnote-6) argue that investors subject to the disposition effect are eager to make profits – they will sell too early and push the market price below its fundamental value, generating a spread. Over time, the spread will be maintained up until the fundamental value is reached. The convergence of this spread is interpreted as momentum and would also occur in the opposite direction in the face of bad news.\n\n### Risk-based\n\nThe risk-based explanation holds that **momentum investors are being compensated for bearing risk** – i.e. the risk of markets suddenly plunging in the event of a recession or major correction. While momentum has positive expected returns over the long run, it can come with large but infrequent losses that risk averse investors may wish to avoid.\n\nFor example, momentum experienced a sharp negative reversal throughout the Global Financial Crisis of 2008 but recovered in the years after.\n\nThis is an important consideration when it comes to portfolio construction as a single factor exposure can be particularly prone to certain parts of the market cycle. Combining factors such as momentum, value and quality within a portfolio can be an effective way to reduce overall portfolio volatility whilst generating persistent alpha which will be explored in Part 3 of this three-part series on momentum investing.\n\n### Momentum Investing around the world and in Australia\n\nThe momentum premium has been persistent for more than 20 years since the publication of the aforementioned 1993 paper by Jegadeesh and Titman.\n\nIt has also been quite pervasive across different geographies and asset classes. Evidence from a 2012 study “Size, Value, and Momentum in International Stock Returns” by Fama and French examined international stock returns for 23 countries across four regions (North America, Japan, Asia Pacific ex Japan and Europe) where they found that momentum returns were strong everywhere except for in Japan.\n\nIndeed, the MSCI World Momentum Index returned 11.37% p.a. from June 30, 1994 to September 30, 2024 outperforming its parent index (the MSCI World) by 2.9% p.a.\n\nWhilst momentum has been well documented in larger markets like the U.S., the factor works just as well in Australia.\n\nResearch by S&P[7](#post-63617-footnote-7) showed that compared to the S&P/ASX 200, both an equal weight and float-cap weighted high momentum Australian portfolio had higher absolute returns. Additionally, a portfolio of high momentum stocks in Australia outperformed a portfolio of low momentum stocks on both an absolute and risk-adjusted basis, with similar return volatility and slightly smaller drawdowns over the period from December 2004 to May 2020.\n\nWe conducted our own analysis of the momentum effect in Australia. This was done by splitting 200 of the largest listed companies in Australia into quartiles ranked by momentum scores (measured by 12-month risk-adjusted returns).\n\nEach of the four quartile portfolios were rebalanced every 6 months with stock positions equally weighted.\n\nUnsurprisingly, we found that the highest quartile momentum portfolio (the orange line in the chart below) outperformed the lowest quartile momentum portfolio (grey line) by almost 12% p.a. since 2011, as shown in the chart below.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/MTUM_1.png)\nSource: Bloomberg, Betashares. The analysis covers the period from 31 January 2011 to 29 October 2024. **Past performance is not indicative of future returns.**\n\nHaving said that, high momentum stocks (such as the highest quartile portfolio) can be particularly susceptible to sharp reversals such as during early 2020 when the covid pandemic shocked markets. During the worst of the selloff that year (from 20 February to 23 March), the highest momentum stocks (first quartile) sold off around -44% compared to -36% for the benchmark ASX 200.\n\nHowever, under the risk-based framework for explaining the momentum premium, investors who are willing to bear this risk would have been rewarded with both higher absolute and risk-adjusted returns.\n\n### Introducing Betashares Australian Momentum ETF (ASX: MTUM)\n\nMomentum is a well-researched factor backed by empirical evidence that has been proven to generate persistent outperformance above and beyond market beta over the long-run.\n\nBetashares has recently launched [MTUM Australian Momentum ETF](security://MTUM.AU) – the first ETF to provide access to an Australian equities momentum strategy, which is now available on the ASX.\n\nFor Part 2 of this three-part series on momentum investing, we will delve further into the Betashares Australian Momentum ETF and explore:\n\n*   MTUM’s systematic approach to momentum investing and how it differs to a traditional momentum strategy,\n*   and the important considerations MTUM includes around liquidity, execution and market impact costs.\n\nStay connected to our Insights page [here](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/globalisation-of-the-nasdaq-100/) for the upcoming Part 2 and 3 articles, as well as in-depth market analysis and thought pieces on investing, portfolio construction and the ETF industry.","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1027,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":734,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"There are risks associated with an investment in MTUM, including market risk, index methodology risk, portfolio turnover risk and concentration risk.

it comes to managing your investments, you may hear volumes about how you should always be “fully invested” to maximise your growth and income potential. It can certainly be good advice, but, as with all investing, there’s a nuance.\n\nFor an income investor, having enough liquidity may be as important as trying to maximise returns. The dilemma many face is working out how much cash is enough, while being careful to avoid holding too much, potentially dragging down portfolio performance. It’s about striking that balance between having enough cash on hand and still taking advantage of rising markets.\n\nLet’s dive into the roles cash can play, the effects of “cash drag”, and some options for keeping the money working.\n\n**The different roles of cash**\n-------------------------------\n\nWhile cash itself is a straightforward investment, there are some considerations when it comes to your portfolio.\n\n### **Investment costs**\n\nKeeping investment costs to a minimum is one of the only ‘[free lunches](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/2-free-lunches-in-finance/)’ in investing. But it’s an inescapable fact that there will always be _some_ costs involved with maintaining a portfolio.\n\nTaxes and financial advice fees are two common considerations. For self-managed superannuation fund (SMSF) investors, they will also need to ensure they can cover the costs of running the fund, as well as covering any insurance premiums being deducted from their accounts.\n\n### **Strategic cash**\n\nCash is generally the most capital-stable of investment classes, while offering some income. In recent years, the income available from cash has improved due to rising interest rates, making it an important consideration for investors to manage the risk and income levels in their portfolio.\n\n### **Tactical cash**\n\nMarkets have periodic corrections, which may offer the opportunity to buy assets at a perceived discount. Some investors choose to keep some cash on hand for such situations.\n\nCash allocation: How much is enough?\n------------------------------------\n\nThere is no one-size-fits-all answer to the question of how much cash to hold. The important thing is what your needs and circumstances are, which can be very different for any particular stage of your life and your financial goals.\n\n### Should you use a percentage or fixed dollar approach?\n\nOne question frequently arises: should you devote a fixed percentage of your portfolio to cash, or use an absolute dollar amount? Both approaches have their advantages.\n\nA percentage might be appropriate in instances where one wants to maintain a certain level of liquidity relative to the portfolio’s size. This can sometimes be an effective strategy for investors whose portfolio value fluctuates, as it automatically adjusts the amount of cash held as the overall portfolio expands or contracts.\n\nOther investors may be more comfortable thinking in terms of a dollar amount. That might work well for people who have identifiable, known needs for cash – whether it’s covering six months of living expenses, covering unexpected bills, or planning a big purchase. When you know the figure that you’re comfortable with, it’s an easier strategy to implement.\n\nThe negative aspect of holding too much cash\n--------------------------------------------\n\nThe trade-off with keeping cash on hand is that having too much cash can be a problem for your portfolio’s performance – a phenomenon known as cash drag.\n\n### How cash drag impacts returns\n\nCash drag is the term used to describe the opportunity cost of holding cash. The returns on cash are typically lower than other asset classes over the long term. Over the course of years or decades, this can make a big difference.\n\nFor the purposes of a projection[1](#post-63256-footnote-1), we’ll make the following assumptions:\n\n*   Investment timeframe: 40 years\n*   Investment return: 6% p.a.\n*   Monthly investment: $1,000\n*   Starting balance: $0\n\nLet’s consider a situation where, instead of investing $1,000 each month, cash is saved over the course of a year, earning zero interest, to be invested in one lump sum at the end of the year.\n\nFor the sake of simplicity let’s assume there is $0 brokerage and 0.04% p.a. management cost[2](#post-63256-footnote-2) on the investment. We’ll also assume that we receive no interest on the cash.\n\nWe’re comparing this making monthly investments – all other assumptions are the same.\n\n![A graph with a red line Description automatically generated](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/a-graph-with-a-red-line-description-automatically.png)\n\nSource: Betashares. Hypothetical example provided for illustrative purposes only. Not a recommendation to invest or adopt any investment strategy. Actual results may differ materially.\n\nThe annual investor ends up with $1,838,577 at the end of year 40, while the monthly investor ends up with $1,970,010. Investing monthly resulted in a balance that was $131,433, or 7.1% higher.\n\n**Putting excess cash to work: Income-oriented alternatives**\n-------------------------------------------------------------\n\nSo, what do you do if you have more cash than perhaps you really need, but you still want to be conservative and liquid? There are a few options that may enable you to balance your needs for liquidity with the potential for higher returns.\n\nInvestors may consider income-focused ETFs, which may offer regular income and relative capital stability, depending on the underlying assets. ETFs holding bonds can offer attractive income with the potential for capital returns (gains or losses). ETFs offer daily access and are traded on ASX with T + 2 settlement.\n\n[OZBD Australian Composite Bond ETF](security://OZBD.AU) provides exposure to a diversified portfolio of high-quality Australian corporate and government bonds selected on the basis of risk-adjusted income potential, while controlling for overall interest rate and credit risk.\n\nAnother avenue is to turn to floating rate bond ETFs or money market ETFs. While Australian banks are sound and their deposit facilities can offer a dependable income stream, the returns from senior floating rate notes and money market securities are expected to exceed income paid on cash and short dated term deposits. These securities also offer a high level of capital stability. They could be particularly attractive for investors looking to preserve capital while still achieving an attractive return on their cash holdings.\n\n[QPON Australian Bank Senior Floating Rate Bond ETF](security://QPON.AU) invests in a portfolio of some of the largest and most liquid senior floating rate bonds issued by Australian banks.\n\n[MMKT Australian Cash Plus Fund (managed fund)](security://MMKT.AU) invests in a portfolio of Australian dollar cash and short-term money market securities issued by investment grade entities.\n\nReevaluating your cash allocation over time\n-------------------------------------------\n\nCash is essential in any balanced portfolio, but holding too much of it drags down long-term overall returns. By taking a thoughtful approach to how much cash you hold onto and investigating higher-income alternatives, you can help ensure your money works hard for you, yet still provides the liquidity you want to feel comfortable and sleep well.\n\nWhatever you decide, remember that your cash allocation needs regular health checks.

the world of investing, there’s often a trade-off between the simplicity of passive investing and the potential for higher returns through active management.\n\nSmart beta strategies offer a solution by combining the best of both worlds. They provide the cost effectiveness and transparency typically expected of an ETF, while incorporating intelligent indexing measures.\n\nAs markets become increasingly volatile, more investors are turning to smart beta ETFs as a smarter way to achieve their financial goals.\n\nWhat is smart beta?\n-------------------\n\nSmart beta combines the power of both passive and active strategies.\n\nTraditional ETFs follow market-cap-weighted indices (where bigger companies carry the most weight), which can risk an investor’s portfolio becoming heavily exposed to a small number of ‘mega cap’ companies.\n\nSmart beta ETFs, in contrast, seek to track a rules-based factor index—focussing on factors like value, momentum, and quality—that aim to provide investors with excess returns, relative to traditional market cap-weighted indices.\n\nUnderstanding the factors\n-------------------------\n\nSmart beta strategies typically focus on one or more factors that represent well established investment strategies. Some of the most common factors include:\n\n*   **Value:** This factor aims to identify companies that are undervalued relative to their fundamentals.\n*   **Momentum:** Momentum strategies look for stocks that are trending upward, under the idea that assets with strong price momentum tend to continue performing well in the short to medium term.\n*   **Quality:** This focuses on ‘quality’ companies based on metrics such as a strong balance sheet, high profitability, and low levels of debt – traits that indicate financial health and stability can be particularly important during volatile markets.\n\nHistorical factor performance: Real world examples\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nS&P Dow Jones Indices and MSCI, the two largest index providers globally[1](#post-63355-footnote-1), both publish data on factor performance. The S&P data only covers the S&P 500 Index, however, with a 15-year performance history, and the importance of the US market, these data provide valuable insights.\n\nThe chart below shows the relative performance vs the S&P 500 Index of the three factors discussed above (value, momentum and quality) on a year-by-year basis for the period \\[month\\] 2009 to \\[month\\] 2024. On average, the quality and momentum factors have provided outperformance relative to the S&P 500 Index over the last 15 years, but value has not fared as well over this period.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/word-image-63355-1.png)\n\nSource: S&P Dow Jones Indices. As at 30 September 2024. Based on S&P 500 Index and relevant factor indices. Past performance is not indicative of future returns. You cannot invest directly in an index. Index performance does not take into account any ETF fees and costs.\n\nETFs to consider\n----------------\n\nBetashares offers a range of smart beta ETFs for investors who want to customise their portfolio to capture specific factors.\n\n[QOZ FTSE RAFI Australia 200 ETF](security://QOZ.AU) provides access to a “fundamentally weighted” portfolio of 200 large Australian companies, weighted in a way this is reflective of their economic importance, rather than the market capitalisation of its constituents.\n\n[QLTY Global Quality Leaders ETF](security://QLTY.AU) provides diversified exposure to 150 of the world’s highest quality companies. Companies are evaluated based on a combined ranking of four key factors – return on equity, debt-to-capital, cash flow generation ability and earnings stability.\n\n[AQLT Australian Quality ETF](security://AQLT.AU) provides exposure to 40 high quality Australian companies, providing a core quality exposure.\n\n[MTUM Australian Momentum ETF](security://MTUM.AU) invests in a portfolio of Australian companies with above average momentum scores, as measured by risk-adjusted returns. MTUM’s index is purely rules-based, prioritising stocks with strong and consistent momentum, while cutting the worst performers quickly.\n\nSmart beta vs traditional indices\n---------------------------------\n\nUltimately, the decision of whether to invest in smart beta or traditional, market capitalisation-based ETFs will be unique to each investor.\n\nMany smart beta ETFs can be used as the core of a well-diversified portfolio, or as a [satellite exposure](https://www.betashares.com.au/education/core-satellite-investing/) to complement a core of low-cost ETFs. Smart beta ETFs can even be used as stand-alone investments to cover an entire geography or asset class.\n\nHere are a few factors to consider when deciding whether to use smart beta products:\n\n*   They may outperform a traditional index, but can also underperform.\n*   Smart beta ETFs may charge higher management costs than market capitalisation weighted ETFs, but lower costs than actively managed ETFs or funds.\n*   These funds may help to reduce concentration risk to larger companies with large weights in the index.\n*   Smart beta ETFs generally aim to track indices that are more complex than market capitalisation weighted ETFs.\n\nWho should consider smart beta?\n-------------------------------\n\nSmart beta ETFs may suit investors who want to go beyond market-cap investing and take a more strategic approach to portfolio construction. These investors include:\n\n*   Intermediate investors who understand the basics of investing and want to dive deeper into specific strategies.\n*   Those seeking to diversify their portfolio using rules-based approaches that can manage risks while potentially enhancing returns.\n*   Investors looking to mitigate concentration risks inherent in traditional market-cap-weighted strategies.\n\nConclusion\n----------\n\nSmart beta ETFs offer a balanced approach for investors who want the simplicity of passive investing with intelligent indexing for outperformance potential beyond broad market exposure.\n\nBy drawing on academic research, these ETFs provide a rules-based approach that offer the potential for excess returns in the long term while remaining cost effective.\n\nWith a range of factor-based strategies available – such as value, momentum, and quality – smart beta ETFs can be a cost-effective way to meet your long-term financial objectives.\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":949,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":686,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"There are risks associated with an investment in the Funds, including market risk, non-traditional index methodology risk, security specific risk and concentration risk.

While making mistakes is an effective way to learn, learning from others can save you time, money and stress.\n\nWith that in mind, we pulled together some “sage wisdom” from some of the world’s great financial gurus. They may not help you pick the next Nvidia, but they could help you avoid making an expensive blunder.\n\n\nWarren Buffett on the corrosive effects of fees\n-----------------------------------------------\n\n_“If returns are going to be 7 or 8 percent and you’re paying 1 percent for fees, that makes an enormous difference in how much money you’re going to have in retirement(1).” –_ **_Warren Buffett, Berkshire Hathaway_**\n\n### **Our take**\n\nSmall differences add up over the long term. Less than one percent per annum over 40 years can add up to hundreds of thousands of dollars of difference, as we explained in [this article](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/get-better-returns/).\n\nAnd while trying to increase returns can be somewhat unreliable – generally it means taking on more risk – finding ways to reduce the fees on your portfolio, for example by can be easier and more reliable and doesn’t need to mean higher risk.\n\n\nThe importance of long-term thinking\n------------------------------------\n\n_“If you can step back and take a longer time horizon, that is the big secret(2)”. –_ **_Joel Greenblatt, Gotham Asset Management_**\n\n_“Design a portfolio you are not likely to trade… akin to premarital counselling advice; try to build a portfolio that you can live with for a long, long time(3).” –_ **_Robert Arnott, Research Affiliates_**\n\n### **Our take**\n\nWhile shares can be volatile in the short term, they can provide capital growth over the long term, even in the face of significant events like the COVID-19 pandemic, the global financial crisis, and 9/11. It’s easy to be swayed by the constant stream of negative financial news and daily share price reports, which can make market volatility seem never-ending.\n\nTiming the ups and downs of market moves is incredibly difficult, [as we’ve discussed previously](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/why-timing-the-market-is-a-fools-errand/). Instead, a good approach for most people may be to simply set a strategy that’s suitable for their financial objectives and risk tolerance, and stick with it regardless of short-term market conditions.\n\n\nPerformance chasing: A recipe for underperformance\n--------------------------------------------------\n\n_“From 2000 to 2010, this was a period where the market was flat but the best-performing managed fund for that decade was up 18 percent a year. The average investor in that fund managed to lose 11 percent a year on a dollar-weighted basis by moving in and out at all the wrong times._\n\n_Every time the market went up, people piled into that fund, and when the market went down, they piled out. When the fund outperformed, they piled in, when the fund underperformed, they piled out(4).” –_ **_Joel Greenblatt, Gotham Asset Management_**\n\n### **Our take**\n\nEven for investors who do invest for the long term, switching between the latest hot trends and high performing funds is a dangerous game. This is due to a concept called ‘mean reversion’. The idea is that when an asset performs significantly above or below what it usually does for a period of time, it tends to give back some of those gains or losses in the following periods – or revert to the long-term mean (average).\n\n\nWhy Buffett loves indexing and ETFs\n-----------------------------------\n\n_“The trick is not to pick the right company. The trick is to essentially buy all the big companies through the S&P 500 and to do it consistently and to do it in a very, very low-cost way(5).” –_ **_Warren Buffett, Berkshire Hathaway_**\n\n### **Our take**\n\nGiven Buffett is famous for his canny ability to make great investments, you might not expect him to be spruiking the benefits of index funds. But Buffett has long espoused the benefits of indexing, and has even said that his wife’s inheritance is to be invested 90% in an S&P 500 index fund(6).\n\nInvestors like Buffett who can outperform the broader market over the long term are rare. However, anyone can get market returns for a low cost through funds that track a widely diversified index.\n\n\nThe danger of selling winners and keeping losers\n------------------------------------------------\n\n_“Some people automatically sell the “winners” – stocks that go up – and hold on to their “losers” – stocks that go down – which is about as sensible as pulling out the flowers and watering the weeds(7).” –_ **_Peter Lynch, Fidelity_**\n\n### **Our take**\n\nAlthough the broad market has tended to rise over the long term, just a tiny number of companies (~2.4% of the overall market) have accounted for those returns, with most underperforming short-term US Treasury Bills(8). So it makes sense to want to hold onto the winners, right?\n\nHowever, many investors may look to sell their winners and hold onto (or even add more to) their losers – a process that Peter Lynch calls ‘pulling out flowers and watering weeds’.\n\nPicking the small fraction of winners out of the huge numbers of listed companies globally is beyond the abilities of most investors. But by buying _all_ the companies in the index, investors can be confident of capturing the big winners.\n\nEven better, market cap-weighted indexes are typically constructed so that underperforming companies will fall in weight, eventually dropping out altogether, while the top performing companies take on a larger weight over time.\n\n\nThe dangers of chasing speculative assets\n-----------------------------------------\n\n_“If you’re stupid enough to buy it, you’ll pay the price for it one day(9).” –_ **_Jamie Dimon, JPMorgan Chase & Co_**\n\n### **Our take**\n\nJamie Dimon might not be the first name that comes to mind when thinking of investment figures and quotes, but his candid advice is worth listening to, especially for those who care about not losing money.\n\nAs the CEO of JPMorgan Chase & Co., the world’s largest bank with a market cap above US$500 billion(10), Dimon has led the institution since 2006, successfully navigating numerous financial crises.\n\nWhile speculative investments can be tempting, especially when others appear to be profiting, adhering to a long-term, broadly diversified investment strategy is a proven way to build wealth. Though it may not be the most exciting approach, it significantly reduces the risk of losing your hard-earned money on a single risky bet.\n\n\nSimple, but not easy\n--------------------\n\nYou may have noticed that none of this is particularly complex – no difficult formulas or innovative strategies are required. But simple doesn’t mean easy. Good investing requires patience and discipline, traits not everyone is blessed with.\n\nIf you stick with it though, it’s a great way to build financial security for you and your family.","style":"article","enable_image_popup":false},{"id":810,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":454,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Betashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

For 21 years it’s been the go-to report for investors and others interested in the ‘active vs. passive’ debate. With more than two decades of data to refer to, let’s look at what we can learn from these reports.\n\n**What is SPIVA?**\n\nSPIVA stands for ‘S&P Indices versus Active’. The SPIVA reports are published by S&P Dow Jones Indices, a division of S&P Global. Their primary purpose is to inform the ‘active vs. passive’ debate, by providing data on how actively managed funds around the world have performed, over both the long and the short term, against appropriate benchmarks.\n\nThe two main reports that are produced are:\n\n**The SPIVA Scorecards** – provide data on the performance of active funds against relevant benchmarks. Reports are provided for markets around the world, both equity markets and fixed income markets. They are broken down into categories according to the type of fund, to ensure the appropriate benchmark is used – for example, large, mid or small-cap funds.\n\n**The SPIVA Persistence Scorecards** – measure the consistency of a fund’s performance relative to its peers. In other words – are funds that outperform in a given period able to maintain that outperformance in subsequent periods? This Scorecard is designed to address the question of whether outperformance is the result of skill (in which case outperformance would be expected to persist over time) or luck (in which case outperformance would be expected to be more random).\n\n**What do the results tell us?**\n\nThe SPIVA data tells a remarkably consistent story.\n\nAccording to Craig Lazzara, Managing Director, Core Product Management S&P Dow Jones Indices: “Our very first SPIVA Scorecard reported that most active managers had underperformed a benchmark appropriate to their investment style over a full market cycle. Our most recent SPIVA update reports more or less the same thing.”\n\nThe first SPIVA Report covered the US equity market only. The chart below shows the percentage of large-cap US equity funds underperforming the S&P 500 each year since then.\n\n**Percentage of Large-Cap Domestic Equity Funds Underperforming the S&P 500 Each Year**\n\n![A graph with numbers and a bar Description automatically generated](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/a-graph-with-numbers-and-a-bar-description-automa-2.png)\n\n**Source: S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC. Data as of 30 June 2023. Chart is provided for illustrative purposes. Past performance is not indicative of future performance.**\n\nSince the first report, SPIVA has expanded to nine different geographies, and now reports on the performance of over 100 different active fund categories around the world.\n\nA consistent theme of SPIVA Scorecards over the years has been that underperformance rates generally rose with the length of the period in which performance was measured.\n\nThe table below shows the percentage of active Australian and US equity funds that have underperformed their relevant benchmark.\n\n| Time period                                      | 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | 15 years |\n|--------------------------------------------------|--------|---------|---------|----------|\n| US Large Cap Funds underperforming               | 60.9%  | 79.8%   | 86.6%   | 92.2%    |\n| Australian General Equity Funds underperforming  | 76.5%  | 69.3%   | 77.6%   | 85.4%    |\n\n\nSource: https://www.spglobal.com/spdji/en/research-insights/spiva/. US Large Cap Funds are compared to the S&P 500 Index, Australian General Equity Funds are compared to the S&P/ASX 200 Index. Past performance is not indicative of future performance.\n\n**Good luck or good management?**\n\nThe disclaimer “Past performance is no guarantee of future performance” is included in material on all funds offered to investors (including our own). What this is basically telling potential investors is just because a fund, or fund manager, has produced good results in the past, this doesn’t necessarily mean they will do so in the future.\n\nHowever, past performance tends to be one of the first things that potential investors look at when deciding whether to put their precious savings into an investment. Human nature is such that – while the lawyers are telling us not to count on it – we tend to be biased towards funds that have done well in the past.\n\nWith index tracking funds, there is no decision to be made around the ‘skill’ of the fund manager, as the manager is simply aiming to replicate the performance of the index (before fees and expenses). If the index does well, so too does the fund; if the index performs poorly so too does the fund.\n\nThis is not the case with the active fund manager, who typically aims to do better than the index – and in doing so, justify their active management fee.\n\nFor this exchange (fees charged for the fund manager’s skill) to be justified, any outperformance has to be the result of that ‘skill’, rather than luck. And if it is the result of skill, then that outperformance should persist over time. If it doesn’t, that indicates that chance is playing a part in the proceedings.\n\n**So – what does the data tell us?**\n\nThe SPIVA Persistence Scorecards show the percentage of funds that remain in the top-quartile or top-half rankings over consecutive three- and five-year periods.\n\nThe US Persistence Scorecard Year-End 2022 found that of 2020’s top quartile large-cap funds, none continued in the top quartile for the next two years and only 5% of the above-median large-cap active equity funds in calendar year 2020 remained above median in each of the two succeeding years.\n\nThe report also looked at the top 50% of domestic equity funds in the 12 months ending 30 December 2018, and their performance over the subsequent three years. It found that among all domestic equity funds, there was a 0% chance of a top half performer, as of 31 December 2018, still being a top half performer as of 31 December 2022.\n\n**Performance Persistence of US Domestic Equity Funds over Three Consecutive 12-Month Periods**\n\n![A screenshot of a graph Description automatically generated](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/a-screenshot-of-a-graph-description-automatically-4.png)\n\nSource: S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC, CRSP. Data as of December 31, 2022. Chart is provided for illustrative purposes. Past performance is not indicative of future performance.\n\nTurning to the Australian market, the most recent data show that 77% of ‘Australian Equity General Funds’ underperformed the S&P/ASX 200 in 2023.

Data as of December 31, 2022. Chart is provided for illustrative purposes. Past performance is not indicative of future performance.\n\nThe conclusions, which SPIVA states are ‘robust across geographies’, include:\n\n*   Most institutional managers underperform most of the time.\n*   The tendency for underperformance typically rises as the observation period lengthens.\n*   When good performance does occur, it tends not to persist. Above-average past performance does not predict above-average future performance.\n\n**How do investors see the active/passive question?**\n\nIt’s impossible to know how many investors are influenced by the data presented by SPIVA over the last two decades. However, what is unarguable is that investors are increasingly favouring passive exposures over active ones.\n\nThe chart below shows cumulative US fund flows from 2000 to August 2022 into active and passive funds. Since 2014/5, it’s clear that money has been pouring into passive funds.\n\nThe chart below shows historical fund assets in US funds from 1993 to into active and passive funds.\n\n**Historical Fund Assets: Active vs. Passive**\n\n![A line chart of active assets versus passive assets from 1993 through 2023.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/a-line-chart-of-active-assets-versus-passive-asset-2.png)\n\nSource: Morningstar Direct Asset Flows.

From its potential to enable long-term productivity gains to becoming a geopolitical bargaining chip among the world’s economic powerhouses, the market’s fervour for AI looks here to stay.\n\nHowever, the investment opportunity set is now broader than the Mag 7, with many other firms likely to thrive as AI technologies proliferate and data centre capacity grows.\n\nThese include AI-enabled platforms like Palantir, which has seen its share price more than double this year as its Foundry and Gotham software systems have become embedded in US military operations, and businesses across other industries, such as Walmart and Airbus. Another example is Broadcom, a semiconductor and software company benefiting from the increasing demand for custom-built ASICs (application specific integrated circuits) – chips specifically tailored to process singular tasks like AI inferencing¹.\n\nThat said, the original seven are not going away.\n\nCollectively, they account for almost 35% of the S&P 500 and remain critical to the build-out of the AI infrastructure layer – which includes the physical data centres that house components from accelerator chips, memory chips and networking devices, to power, cooling and security systems.\n\nThis year alone, these companies are expected to spend over US$340 billion in capital expenditures, a scale that’s already influencing US GDP growth and supporting the broader semiconductor supply chain.\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/AI-1-1400x934.webp) Source: Company data, Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research. As at 1 August 2025. Historical and projected capital investments for US cloud and hyperscale providers (post 2Q25).\n\nHowever, there have been increasing concerns around the sustainability of this spending with AI infrastructure capex predicted to reach US$3-4 trillion by 2030 according to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. Whether these companies can earn an excess return on their cost of capital from AI remains a key question for investors moving forward, particularly as debt markets have been tapped to fund this build out. \n\nTo that end, we are seeing the benefits of AI percolate across the semiconductor supply chain but also through to adjacent sectors such as cybersecurity and robotics – a trend likely to continue as adoption rates grow across businesses in other industries.\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/AI-2-1400x987.webp) Source: Ramp AI Index, business spend data from Ramp. Data as at September 2025.\n\nAll roads lead to Asia\n----------------------\n\nThe immense amount of data centre spending from the likes of Amazon, Microsoft, Google and Meta is providing significant tailwinds for companies across the semiconductor supply chain, particularly in Asia.\n\nA large part of this spend involves purchasing leading edge accelerator chips designed by the likes of Nvidia and AMD but manufactured by a company called Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSMC). This model of outsourcing chip manufacturing to a specialised ‘foundry’ has allowed TSMC to become one of the world’s most valuable semiconductor companies.\n\nThe company recently reported a 30% increase² in third-quarter sales and generates more than half its net revenue (51%) from high-performance computing (HPC), an area that has become increasingly profitable for TSMC’s bottom line.\n\nBeyond manufacturing, memory is another critical component found within an accelerator chip that helps AI applications process huge amounts of data in a seamless way.\n\nLeaders in this space are SK Hynix and Samsung, based in South Korea, which together account for nearly 80%³ of the high-bandwidth memory (HBM) market. Both companies recently signed letters of intent to supply memory chips for OpenAI’s data centres as part of the Stargate Project, announced by President Trump in January.\n\nThe key takeaway is that there are businesses across the supply chain, particularly in Asia, that are benefiting from the billions of dollars being spent on critical AI infrastructure build-out.\n\nAs the chart below illustrates, more than half of Nvidia’s cost of goods sold goes to two major suppliers alone: TSMC and SK Hynix. These Asian technology companies represent the broader AI supply chain and also allow investors to geographically diversify away from US equity-heavy portfolios.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/AI-3-1400x933.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. As at 9 July 2025.\n\nHarnessing AI in cybersecurity and robotics\n-------------------------------------------\n\nBeyond Asian technology companies, AI is reshaping the cybersecurity industry, particularly as geopolitical tensions continue to simmer and national self-sufficiency needs rise.\n\nWhile AI has the potential to unlock major productivity benefits, it is also being exploited by adversaries that often target critical network systems and infrastructure.\n\nAgainst this backdrop, governments, businesses and individuals are all becoming more proactive in protecting their data. Global cybersecurity spending is expected to see sustained growth of double-digit rates, reaching US$377 billion by 2028, according to the International Data Corporation.\n\nThis amount is not only large but also highly defensible in nature, with Chief Information Officers surveyed by Morgan Stanley viewing security as the category least likely to get cut in an economic downturn.\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/AI-4-1-1400x778.webp) Source: Morgan Stanley 2Q25 CIO Survey. Percentage of total responses.\n\nThis spending backdrop has driven new product offerings from leading cybersecurity firms, including Palo Alto Networks and CrowdStrike, which are developing AI agents that work alongside humans to automate complex security tasks like malware analysis and cyberattack interception.\n\nRobotics is another adjacent industry that AI is reshaping. For some time, the development of robots struggled to kick off due to high manufacturing costs, a lack of demand and nascent software development tailored for robotics. However, as AI technologies have advanced rapidly and supply chains become vertically integrated, robotics has become a key theme in 2025 and Nvidia’s next biggest market for potential growth beyond AI.\n\nWhile still in its infancy, Betashares sees robotics becoming a bigger and more recognised investment exposure over time as developed market economies seek automation as a critical solution to counter structural macro issues including labour shortages and falling population growth rates.\n\nThe next wave of AI investing\n-----------------------------\n\nInvesting in AI has become much broader than the Magnificent 7 companies. While they continue to lead the market in scale and innovation, there is a growing cohort of companies and sectors, including cybersecurity and robotics, that are already benefiting from the diffusion and advancement of AI technologies.\n\nOf course, there are risks. AI has driven equity markets to record high valuations, and concerns around the sustainability of data centre spending remain front of mind for investors.\n\nHowever, it’s hard to deny that AI is presenting a once-in-a-generation investment opportunity spearheaded by some of the most innovative and cash flow-generative companies in the world.\n\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2698,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":265,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":491,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":51,"attributes":{"symbol":"ASIA","name":"Asia Technology Tigers ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Exposure to the 50 largest Asian technology companies (ex-Japan)","description_long":"ASIA aims to track the performance of an index (before fees and expenses) comprising the 50 largest technology and online retail stocks in Asia (ex-Japan), including technology giants such as Alibaba, Tencent, Baidu and JD.com.","fee":0.67,"createdAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.742Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T06:54:00.123Z","publishedAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.741Z","symbol_openfigi":null,"tags":{"data":[{"id":3,"attributes":{"tag":"artificial-intelligence","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:12:28.475Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.094Z","mutations":"ai,llm,gpt"}},{"id":77,"attributes":{"tag":"china","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:37.067Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:37.067Z","mutations":"chinese"}},{"id":6,"attributes":{"tag":"asia","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:12:58.881Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:30.221Z","mutations":"asian,sea"}},{"id":88,"attributes":{"tag":"microprocessors","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:38.876Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:38.876Z","mutations":"chips,microprocessors,semiconductors"}},{"id":99,"attributes":{"tag":"cybersecurity","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:39.322Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:39.322Z","mutations":"hacking"}},{"id":128,"attributes":{"tag":"technology","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.966Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.966Z","mutations":"tech"}},{"id":194,"attributes":{"tag":"cnew","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:11.630Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:01.555Z","mutations":null}},{"id":246,"attributes":{"tag":"iaa","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:16.119Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:05.628Z","mutations":null}},{"id":255,"attributes":{"tag":"tsmc","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:17.518Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:07.095Z","mutations":null}},{"id":268,"attributes":{"tag":"alibaba","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:19.504Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:08.733Z","mutations":null}},{"id":262,"attributes":{"tag":"tencent","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:19.366Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:08.696Z","mutations":null}},{"id":55,"attributes":{"tag":"emerging","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:33.358Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:33.358Z","mutations":"emerging-markets"}}]}}}}},{"id":492,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":5,"attributes":{"symbol":"RBTZ","name":"Global Robotics and Artificial Intelligence ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"RBTZ provides exposure to robotics and humanoid technology -

asset class performance**\n---------------------------------\n\n*   Global equities continued to move higher in October, supported by  resilient global economic growth, corporate earnings, subdued bond yields and optimism around artificial intelligence. \n*   Australian equities inched higher and underperformed global equities, despite a welcome upgrade to earnings expectations in the month.\n*   Broadly steady bond yields produced small positive gains for fixed-rate bonds.   \n*   Gold prices rose further, albeit with a pullback late in the month.

Past performance is not indicative of future performance.  \n\n**Fixed-rate bond trends**\n--------------------------\n\n*   Local rate cut expectations remains broadly unchanged over October, with mixed news over the month still leaving markets unsure whether rates would be cut in November. A higher-than-expected September quarter CPI report confirmed the inflationary pressure evident in the August monthly report, while there was also a higher-than-expected jump in the unemployment rate to 4.5%.\n*   Following the RBA’s decision not to cut rates in November, markets have now less than fully priced in only one rate cut by mid-2026, with steady rates thereafter. \n*   In the US, rate cut expectations held broadly steady, with the Fed delivering another rate cut in the month, following the rate cut in September. The market still sees a high (70%) chance of another rate cut in December, and three rate cuts overall by the end of 2026.\n*   Local 10-year bond yields edged down slightly to 4.30% and remain bound in the range they’ve held since early 2024. With broadly steady bond yields, local fixed-rate bonds have marginally beaten cash over the past six months.\n    *   The prospect of at least steady official rates should support bond returns relative to cash over the coming year. \n*   Longer-term credit spreads edged slightly higher in the month, although have generally narrowed so far this year. \n    *   Easing economic risks bode well for credit spreads to remain around their current, historically tight levels.\n*   Local bonds have marginally beaten global bonds over the past year, although relative performance remains in a choppy sideways range, and the outlook remains relatively neutral. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/ozbonds.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, Betashares. Australian bonds: Bloomberg AusBond Composite Bond Index; Global Bonds: Bloomberg Global Aggregate Bond Index ($A hedged). \n\n**Global equity trends**\n------------------------\n\n*   The MSCI All-World price index rose a further 2.7% in October – reaching a new end-month record high – after a solid 3.5% gain in September. The gain reflected a 1.6% rise in forward earnings and a 1.2% gain in the price-to-forward-earnings ratio to 19.7.\n*   Earnings expectations edged up a little further in October, with current expectations consistent with solid 15% growth in forward earnings by end-2026.\n*   With valuations still somewhat elevated, continued market gains are still possible, provided bond yields don’t rise much and/or the current bullish earnings outlook remains in place.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/global-equities.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, LSEG, Betashares.

Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.\n\n*   Among select Betashares global equity ETFs, global gold miners (MNRS) corrected after recent strong gains and a pullback in the gold price late in the month. The Nasdaq-100 (HNDQ) continued to produce solid gains, with a return of 4.8%.    \n*   All up, the standout exposures over the past 12 months have been global banks, gold miners and the Nasdaq-100.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Global-themes.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, LSEG, Betashares.

Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.\n\n**Australian dollar**\n---------------------\n\n*   Despite a rise in iron ore prices, the Australian dollar edged back in October to US65.5 cents, largely reflecting strength in the US dollar.  Australia’s 12-month forward expected cash rate differential edged up only slightly from +0.1% to +0.13%. \n*   The Australian dollar has generally been firm so far in 2025, largely reflecting weakness in the US dollar. Australian versus US short-term rate differentials have been choppy, narrowing earlier this year but widening more recently. Iron ore prices have been broadly steady, recovering a little of late after weakness earlier this year.\n*   Reflecting an easing of global risks, more US rate cuts and its still-historically expensive level, the US dollar is expected to gradually weaken over the coming year, which should support more Australian dollar strength. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/A.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, LSEG, Betashares. Australian Equities: S&P/ASX 200 Index. Australian Bonds: Bloomberg AusBond Composite Index. You cannot invest directly in an index. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.\n\n**Australian shares**\n---------------------\n\n*   The S&P/ASX 200 price index lifted only 0.4% in October, after a decline of 1.4% in September.  \n*   Despite the modest gain in share prices, a welcome aspect of the past month has been a notable upgrade to earnings expectations. Forward earnings rose 3.3%, largely reflecting upgrades in the resource sector due to more resilient than expected commodity prices. The level of expected earnings in FY26, FY27 and FY28 were all revised up around 2.5-3.0% in the month. \n*   The price-to-forward-earnings ratio fell 2.9% to 19.0.\n*   The further fall in valuations during the month means Australian equities are back trading at a slight discount to global valuations.\n*   Current earnings expectations imply 8.3% growth in Australian forward earnings by the end of 2026, which is still somewhat less than that for global earnings. Accordingly, with relative valuations fair, Australian equities still seem likely to underperform global equities over the coming year due to relatively weaker growth in earnings.\n*   That said, of interest will be whether the local market enjoys further earnings upgrades in coming months. While the commodity outlook appears encouraging, the prospect of fewer RBA rate cuts and more constrained local economic growth is a counterweight.    \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/oz-equities.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, LSEG, Betashares.

Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.\n\n*   A rotation toward resources and away from financial stocks remained evident in the large cap space over the month, while the past few  months have also seen a strong rotation from large caps overall into small caps. \n*   Among select Betashares Australian equity ETFs, standout performers in the month were resources (QRE) and small caps (SMLL) with gains of 4% and 3.4% respectively. Financials (QFN) returned 1.5%.\n*   Australian quality stocks (AQLT) have remained a consistent performer so far this year, though returns edged down 0.2% in the month.  Technology (ATEC) also had a notable 6% pullback in the month, with performance choppy so far this year albeit with solid gains over the past 12 months.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/OZ-themes.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, LSEG, Betashares.

Australian investors earn income predominantly from local sources: term deposits, distributions from hybrids and dividends from Australia’s largest companies.\n\nWhile these have served investors well historically, this geographic concentration presents a challenge: when local assets face headwinds, income can be significantly impacted.\n\nThe reality is that a core income strategy focused solely on Australian assets may no longer be enough. This is where satellite income ETFs can help by offering exposure to global income sources that complement an investor’s existing core strategy and reduce reliance on domestic market conditions.\n\nWhen income is concentrated, so is risk\n---------------------------------------\n\nAustralians have traditionally relied heavily on the same tried-and-true income sources.\n\nIn the sharemarket, this has historically been dividend-paying companies, namely the Big Four banks, miners and industrial companies. But these companies also make up a significant portion of the S&P/ASX 200 index. As at 31 October 2025, financial and materials companies make up more than [55% of the ASX 200](https://www.marketindex.com.au/asx200). Further, in the 10 years to 31 December 2024, [between 64% and 78%](https://www.spglobal.com/spdji/en/documents/research/research-analyzing-high-dividend-yield-strategies-in-australia.pdf) of all the dividend income paid out in the sharemarket was delivered by just two sectors: materials and financials (including real estate).\n\nThis concentration presents unique challenges. Superannuation funds and self-managed super funds (SMSFs) that rely heavily on ASX dividend income may find their retirement planning disrupted if these sectors were to face simultaneous shocks. These shocks could include (but are not limited to) regulatory changes, commodity price slumps or a credit event.\n\nMore broadly, economic cycles are often not evenly felt. Banks may thrive during periods of rising credit demand, while resource companies can struggle if commodity prices fall.\n\nThis is why many investors seek multiple levers for generating steady income. A diversified income portfolio consisting of exposures to broad market investments, dividend-focused local or global equity strategies, fixed income, real estate and other income-generating assets has greater potential to deliver through all seasons than a portfolio that is concentrated in a single asset.\n\nHow income can be both a core and satellite focus\n-------------------------------------------------\n\nThe challenge of income concentration has led many investors toward international satellite strategies that can provide access to alternative income sources that operate independently of traditional Australian dividend payers.\n\nIt is important to emphasise that income can be a focus across an investor’s core and satellite exposures. An investor also doesn’t have to limit themselves to just one satellite exposure.\n\nTwo satellite ideas\n-------------------\n\nTwo distinct approaches illustrate how satellite income strategies can complement each other. While an investor may only invest in one of the following two ideas, the two funds together may add even greater diversification of income sources.\n\nThe first approach targets royalty income. Royalty companies operate differently from traditional businesses. Rather than producing goods or services themselves, they earn income by owning rights to future revenue streams – such as royalties from resource extraction, drug sales, or intellectual property licensing.\n\nThis model allows royalty companies to benefit from the growth of underlying industries without bearing the operational risks or capital costs typically associated with them.\n\n### At their core, royalty companies are:\n\n*   Capital-light: They often avoid the need to build, mine, manufacture or distribute.\n*   Scalable: Income can grow without proportional increases in cost or complexity.\n*   Diversified: Many royalty companies hold rights across multiple assets, sectors or geographies.\n*   Resilient: Their revenues are often linked to final sale prices, offering better insulation from input cost inflation.\n\nBetashares Global Royalties ETF provides exposure to royalty companies. As at 1 October 2025, it has a 12-month distribution yield (the annual income paid to investors as a percentage of the fund’s price) of 4.4%¹ and pays distributions monthly.

new wave of interest in nuclear power has sparked optimism among uranium producers, with headlines focused on a US “AI-powered” nuclear renaissance. Amazon, Meta and Microsoft are already paying premiums of $15-$25 a megawatt-hour for nuclear energy’s reliable 24×7 output and emission-free attributes to support their data centres.\n\nYet, despite enthusiasm from Washington and Silicon Valley, most of the growth in uranium demand over the next decade will come not from Small Modular Reactors in the US. Instead, it will be driven by existing reactor technology that is being deployed at scale in Asia; led by China, Japan and South Korea.\n\nBloomberg Intelligence nuclear generation outlook\n-------------------------------------------------\n\n![A graph of different colored lines. AI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/a-graph-of-different-colored-lines-ai-generated-c.webp)\n---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nSource: BloombergNEF. As at September 2025. Bars represent low and high levelised cost of energy (US dollar / megawatt hour). Solar estimates include the cost of 4 hours of battery storage capacity.\n\n**US outlook: Ambitious targets, slow realisation**\n---------------------------------------------------\n\nDespite Trump’s aggressive 2050 nuclear capacity target of 400 GW and growing adoption by hyperscalers, it’s unlikely any new major nuclear power plants will be built in the US until at least 2030. Instead incremental additional capacity will come from plant upgrades and limited opportunities to restart idled reactors.\n\nIn the US, high construction costs and long build times remain a fundamental obstacle. The two new units at Georgia’s Vogtle plant took twice as long and cost more than double initial estimates - roughly US$31 billion.\n\nTo reduce the cost and construction time frames, several US companies are trying to develop Small Modular Reactors (SMRs). Typical nuclear power plants are gigantic and generate 1000 MW or more, SMRs are generally 300 MW or less. Conceptually SMRs allow for standardised designs and modular components that can be build offsite and shipped in, which in theory will lead to lower costs over time.\n\nBut SMR leader, NuScale, terminated their Idaho pilot project in 2023 after indicative cost projections more than tripled to $9.3 billion. This setback has not dampened investor interest, SMR start up Oklo’s share price is up more than 1,000% in less than 2 years. Oklo is hoping to deploy its US pilot reactor program by 2027-28. But unproven SMR technology, regulatory complexity and supply-chain limitations may delay broader commercialisation until after 2035. A lot must go right between now and then to justify Oklo’s share price rally.\n\n**China: Strategic alignment, cost advantage**\n----------------------------------------------\n\nBy contrast, China already accounts for over **40% of global planned and in-construction nuclear capacity**.¹ Nuclear’s near zero lifecycle carbon emissions, make it central to Beijing’s decarbonisation strategy and its goal of energy independence.\n\nChina approved 10 new reactors in April 2025 alone, the largest single batch since 2011. Its typical construction timeline is just **5.7 years**, roughly one-quarter that of the United States, thanks to standardised domestic designs such as the “Hualong One”. China has the domestic industrial base, experienced workforce and state support to build nuclear at scale, and nuclear is now lower cost than other forms of generation in that country.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/URNM-1-1400x996.webp)\n\nSource: BloombergNEF. As at June 2024. Bars represent low and high levelised cost of energy (US dollar / megawatt hour). Solar estimates include the cost of 4 hours of battery storage capacity.\n\nWith data-centre electricity consumption projected to grow 13% annually through 2035, nuclear energy’s role in powering China’s AI infrastructure will only deepen.\n\n**Japan and South Korea: Restarts and exports**\n-----------------------------------------------\n\nAfter the Fukushima disaster, Japan shutdown most of its nuclear power plants. Today it is aiming to boost nuclear’s share of the energy mix from below 9% of total generation to 20% by 2040. Much of this extra capacity will come from restarting dormant reactors, rather than building new plants. Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Kansai Electric Power are leading the rebuild of the domestic industry, from maintenance to component supply.\n\nSouth Korea is a world leader in building nuclear power plants, and has exported its technology globally. Through government partnerships and national champions like Samsung C&T, South Korea has signed US$38 billion in export deals with UAE and Czechia, with a goal of exporting 10 reactors by 2030. South Korea is an attractive partner, it is Western aligned and can build nuclear power plants faster than any other country, with a median construction time of only 4.7 years.\n\n**Implications for uranium markets and investors**\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nWhile US utilities focus on life-extension programs and AI-linked power-purchase deals, Asia’s construction-led expansion will dominate uranium consumption growth through the 2030s. Bloomberg forecasts global uranium supply to rise 23% by 2031, but warns of potential deficits beyond 2032 as Asian reactors ramp up.²\n\nUranium miners with exposure to Chinese, Japanese and Korean buyers, such as Kazatomprom, Cameco, Paladin Energy and Boss Energy, are well positioned to benefit.\n\nYou can tap into the potential growth of these mining companies, as well as other companies in the global uranium industry, by investing in URNM Global Uranium ETF .³ URNM is designed to provide exposure to a portfolio of global companies involved in the mining, exploration, development and production of uranium, or companies that hold physical uranium or uranium royalties.\n\nURNM does not hold utilities companies or companies involved in the construction of nuclear power plants. Building a nuclear power plant is an incredibly complex and costly exercise, which is often reliant on government support. Once that plant is operational however, it will require 60-80 years’ worth of uranium fuel. \n\n> In our view, investing in a global diversified basket of the suppliers of that fuel, the uranium miners, is the _most compelling_ way to play the so-called nuclear renaissance.\n\nIt’s worth noting that, while there are uranium mining companies listed on the ASX, trying to pick individual stocks in this sector can come with added volatility. Most of these companies sit outside the S&P/ASX 100 Index and some are pre-production which introduces project execution risk to a portfolio. Rather, investors should take a global view when considering emerging sectors, like uranium, diversifying their exposure across individual names and even countries, particularly where operations are located in countries where sovereign risk is elevated.  Furthermore investors might want to consider an allocation to the global uranium sector as a satellite allocation, rather a core exposure, within a highly diversified basket of Australian and International equities, bonds and commodities.\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2527,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":253,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":475,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":13,"attributes":{"symbol":"URNM","name":"Global Uranium ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Access leading companies in the global uranium industry","description_long":null,"fee":0.69,"createdAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.492Z","updatedAt":"2025-07-10T05:26:52.354Z","publishedAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.491Z","symbol_openfigi":null,"tags":{"data":[{"id":81,"attributes":{"tag":"uranium","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:37.119Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:16.581Z","mutations":null}},{"id":107,"attributes":{"tag":"canada","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.077Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:24.131Z","mutations":null}},{"id":133,"attributes":{"tag":"energy","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.326Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.326Z","mutations":"power"}},{"id":232,"attributes":{"tag":"sprott","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:15.526Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:05.626Z","mutations":null}},{"id":235,"attributes":{"tag":"ura","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:15.558Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:05.640Z","mutations":null}},{"id":240,"attributes":{"tag":"cameco","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:15.723Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:05.532Z","mutations":null}},{"id":242,"attributes":{"tag":"nac-kazatomprom","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:16.037Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:05.711Z","mutations":null}},{"id":244,"attributes":{"tag":"nexgen-energy","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:16.094Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:05.696Z","mutations":null}},{"id":236,"attributes":{"tag":"atom","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:15.611Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:05.624Z","mutations":null}},{"id":325,"attributes":{"tag":"kazakhstan","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:30.513Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:16.632Z","mutations":null}},{"id":327,"attributes":{"tag":"nuclear","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:30.929Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:30.929Z","mutations":"nuclear-energy"}}]}}}}}]},{"id":2519,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1845,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nThere are risks associated with an investment in URNM, including market risk, sector concentration risk, international investment risk and regulatory risk.

six weeks on a Tuesday, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) announces its latest interest rate decision.\n\nAs soon as the decision drops, mortgage rates move, bond yields change and the share market reacts almost instantly. But how much does the average investor know about what goes into these decisions? Because behind each announcement sits a surprisingly straightforward framework.\n\nThat framework can help explain why, post the 30 September 2025 RBA meeting, bond markets reacted negatively even though the central bank held rates steady as widely expected. This was due to the shift in the RBA’s tone on their view of inflation risk, which tilted the scales of the framework. As such, post meeting, the consensus expectation for interest rate cuts was reduced from two to one and the timing of the next cut was also pushed back.\n\nWhy? Because the relative importance of the two things the RBA looks at have changed – and so has the market expectations on how the RBA would react to data. Understanding what drives these decisions, and how to interpret the key data, can give investors an edge in positioning portfolios ahead of the crowd.\n\nThe RBA’s dual mandate\n----------------------\n\nEvery central bank has a mandate and some, like the RBA, have two. The two parts of this dual mandate are:\n\n*   **Price stability**: Maintaining low and stable inflation with a target of 2-3% inflation on average over time. The midpoint of 2.5% serves as the medium-term goal. The ‘trimmed mean’ measure is the RBA’s preferred metric for gauging its progress on inflation, because it removes the most extreme price movements of items such as oil and food.\n*   **Full employment**: Maximising sustainable employment through a low unemployment rate and a high participation rate. Note, this does not mean zero unemployment, but rather the level where everyone who wants a job can find one without causing wages and prices to accelerate (or, as economists call it, the Non-Accelerating Inflation Rate of Unemployment – NAIRU).\n\nAnother example of a central bank that shares this dual mandate is the US Federal Reserve; while most major economy central banks have informal dual mandates, such as the European Central Bank, the Bank of England and the Bank of Canada.\n\nA simple way to visualise a rate decision\n-----------------------------------------\n\nAfter understanding the RBA’s dual mandate, the natural question is how do these two factors actually interact to drive rate decisions?\n\nThe most important thing to note is that the RBA never looks at each number in isolation. It’s constantly weighing trade-offs. If inflation is tracking perfectly but unemployment is rising, what does it do? If unemployment is low but inflation is stubbornly high, which takes priority? The latter is the problem that the RBA (and the Fed) have been dealing with consistently in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.\n\nTo help make sense of all this, let’s look at this sample probability matrix. Note, this matrix is based on my views at a particular time and is included here for purely illustrative purposes.\n\n**![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/word-image-80920-1.webp)**\n\nSource: Betashares\n\n### **Think of it like a grid:**\n\n*   **Across the top**: Four possible outcomes for inflation (trimmed mean CPI) from lower to higher.\n*   **Down the side**: Four possible outcomes for unemployment, from lower to higher.\n*   **Inside each box**: My assessment of how likely the RBA would be to cut rates if that particular combination occurred. The darker the shading, the higher the likelihood of a cut.\n\nThe matrix shows 16 possible combinations of where inflation and unemployment could land. By weighing all these scenarios together based on my view of how likely each is to occur, we get an overall sense of the probability of a rate cut.\n\n### **Three points to note:**\n\n*   These scenario ranges are informed by the latest quarterly data releases, combined with recent monthly data releases and trends.\n*   This framework is being used to assess the next RBA move rather than longer-term considerations.\n*   The probabilities shown are my views based on my subjective assessment.\n\nUnderstanding the probability framework\n---------------------------------------\n\nThe key is understanding the RBA’s concept of the ‘neutral rate’: the interest rate level that keeps the economy running at a steady pace when both employment and inflation are where they should be. This is not to be confused with the above explanation for the NAIRU, as NAIRU refers to the relationship between unemployment and inflation while the neutral rate applies to the cost of money and growth.\n\nThink of it this way: if unemployment sat at the ideal level and inflation hit the 2.5% target, the RBA would set rates at what it believes to be neutral – neither accelerating nor slowing the economy. The challenge is that this neutral rate is not a fixed number that can be looked up. It is not directly observable, and it shifts over time as the economy evolves.\n\nNow, let’s look at how this matrix evolves when real-world data releases are taken into account. Consider the September unemployment rate of 4.5%, which was published on October 16. The rise in unemployment came as a shock to the market and saw the probability of a cut greatly increase given the deterioration of in the jobs market.\n\nThen, following the labour force report and just before the Q3 inflation report was released, RBA Governor Michele Bullock argued that the board which decides monetary policy would be retaining a “cautious” policy stance and that the state of the current economy is “a very satisfying outcome”. These remarks caused a significant drop in the market’s expectations for a quarter-point cut and a rise in the Australian dollar.\n\nWith all this put together, my highly subjective personal probability cut matrix is updated below:\n\n![A screenshot of a computer\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/a-screenshot-of-a-computer-ai-generated-content-m.webp)\n\nSource: Betashares\n\nThe marginal probabilities of each scenario (unemployment rate and CPI) occurring are shown in the square brackets and is subjective to my personal views on the likelihood of each scenario occurring. Then, for each combination of scenario pairs, I assigned a subjective view on the probability of an RBA cut should these scenarios occur. Finally, the overall probability of a cut is calculated by taking the sum of the product of all probability pairs by their chances of occurring.\n\nWhat does this mean for the RBA’s next decision?\n------------------------------------------------\n\nRBA Governor Michele Bullock recently described policy as “a little bit restrictive”. This means that if unemployment remained at current levels or increased slightly toward NAIRU, and trimmed mean CPI moved toward the 2.5% target, the RBA would cut rates back to neutral.\n\nHowever, the RBA does not view the risks of inflation and unemployment as balanced. Governor Bullock discussed the need to be “a little bit cautious” about upside inflation surprises – language the market interpreted as hawkish (meaning a central bank may be more inclined to raise interest rates). This signals the RBA is placing greater weight on higher-than-expected inflation than higher-than-expected unemployment.\n\nRegarding next week’s November interest rate decision, the RBA’s August forecast of 2.6% trimmed mean inflation appears unlikely to be realised. Recent monthly inflation data suggests a sideways rather than downward trend, with some key components signalling potential for upward surprises. Given this data and the shift in market consensus, my central case is for Q3 trimmed mean inflation to be at or above 2.8%.\n\nThis would result in a line-ball decision for an RBA faced with both higher-than-expected unemployment and inflation although, in this situation, I believe the RBA will place a bit more weight on controlling inflation. Given the range of CPI outcomes though, in my view, the overall cut probability is now quite high.\n\nInvestment implications\n-----------------------\n\nFor investors considering positioning, fixed-rate bond funds such as Betashares Australian Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF (ASX: CRED) have historically tended to benefit when the RBA cuts rates, while floating-rate funds such as Betashares Australian Major Bank Subordinated Debt ETF (ASX: BSUB) have historically tended to perform better when rates hold steady. Current market pricing suggests a cut is expected at the next meeting, although the path forward remains uncertain.","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2526,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":252,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":473,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":43,"attributes":{"symbol":"CRED","name":"Australian Investment Grade Corporate Bond ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Earn attractive income from Australian corporate bonds","description_long":null,"fee":0.25,"createdAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.667Z","updatedAt":"2025-07-10T05:26:27.351Z","publishedAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.664Z","symbol_openfigi":null,"tags":{"data":[{"id":1,"attributes":{"tag":"income","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:06:02.686Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.669Z","mutations":"yield,passive-income"}},{"id":95,"attributes":{"tag":"corporate-bonds","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:39.289Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:18.241Z","mutations":null}},{"id":94,"attributes":{"tag":"corporate","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:39.269Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:19.747Z","mutations":null}},{"id":89,"attributes":{"tag":"defensive","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:38.886Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:19.678Z","mutations":null}},{"id":120,"attributes":{"tag":"bonds","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.651Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.651Z","mutations":"bnds,bond-market,bond,government-bonds"}},{"id":134,"attributes":{"tag":"credit","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.342Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.342Z","mutations":"debt"}},{"id":159,"attributes":{"tag":"hcrd","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:06.793Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:57.617Z","mutations":null}},{"id":160,"attributes":{"tag":"plus","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:06.805Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:57.515Z","mutations":null}},{"id":171,"attributes":{"tag":"vacf","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:07.549Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:57.700Z","mutations":null}}]}}}}},{"id":474,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":176,"attributes":{"symbol":"BSUB","name":"Australian Major Bank Subordinated Debt ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Earn attractive monthly income from high quality subordinated bonds issued by the ‘big 4’ Australian banks.","description_long":"Earn attractive monthly income from high quality subordinated bonds issued by the ‘big 4’ Australian banks.\n\n","fee":0.29,"createdAt":"2024-05-27T07:07:15.942Z","updatedAt":"2026-01-08T05:24:43.774Z","publishedAt":"2024-05-27T07:07:19.249Z","symbol_openfigi":null,"tags":{"data":[{"id":44,"attributes":{"tag":"floating-rate","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:31.962Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:31.962Z","mutations":"variable-rate"}},{"id":89,"attributes":{"tag":"defensive","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:38.886Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:19.678Z","mutations":null}},{"id":114,"attributes":{"tag":"banks","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.538Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.538Z","mutations":"banking,bank"}},{"id":134,"attributes":{"tag":"credit","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.342Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.342Z","mutations":"debt"}},{"id":168,"attributes":{"tag":"byhb","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:07.526Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:57.639Z","mutations":null}},{"id":185,"attributes":{"tag":"anz","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:09.385Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:59.299Z","mutations":null}},{"id":178,"attributes":{"tag":"wbc","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:08.896Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:59.321Z","mutations":null}},{"id":334,"attributes":{"tag":"nab","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:32.403Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:18.236Z","mutations":null}},{"id":337,"attributes":{"tag":"big-4","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:32.523Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:18.689Z","mutations":null}},{"id":392,"attributes":{"tag":"cba","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.830Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.830Z","mutations":"commonwealth-bank"}},{"id":1,"attributes":{"tag":"income","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:06:02.686Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.669Z","mutations":"yield,passive-income"}}]}}}}}]},{"id":2518,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1843,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\n\nThere are risks associated with an investment in each of the Funds, including interest rate risk, credit risk and market risk.

can struggle with embracing the idea that volatility is a normal part of investing.\n\nIn a recent survey, Natixis Investment Managers asked over 7,000 retail investors from around the world whether they would accept more risk for better returns. [Only 53%](https://assets.im.natixis.com/content/dam/natixis/website/insights/investor-sentiment/2025/individual-investor-survey/individual-investor-survey-full-report.pdf) said yes – meaning nearly half were unwilling to do so.\n\nThat said, there’s a strategy that can help change that perspective. Covered call strategies allow investors to generate additional income by selling options over their shares. The extra income received can cushion some of the loss when share prices are flat or declining. Covered call strategies also cap the upside potential of an investor’s share portfolio, as discussed below.\n\n**How it works in practice**\n----------------------------\n\nA covered call involves two elements: shares an investor already owns, and options they sell. The investor sells a call option, giving someone else the right to buy their shares at a predetermined higher price on or before a specified date in the future. In exchange for granting this right, the investor receives immediate payment which is called a ‘premium’.\n\nTake BHP as an example. An investor owns 100 shares at $50 each. They sell a call option giving someone the right to buy those shares at $55.\n\nThe investor receives $2 per share for this agreement, generating a total of $200 in income.\n\n### **From here, three outcomes are possible:**\n\n1.  If BHP trades below $55, the call option is not exercised – or in simpler terms the party who bought the call option will not exercise their right to buy the shares because they have not reached the specified higher price. The investor keeps both the shares and the $200 income.\n2.  If BHP trades at exactly $55 and the buyer of the option exercises their right under the option, the investor will be required to sell at $55. They will earn the $5 per share increase from $50 to $55 ($500) and the $200 premium, for a total of $700.\n3.  If BHP trades above $55, the investor earns the same amount as in Scenario 2 ($700) but loses out on any additional share price upside they could have made from selling the shares above $55. For example, if BHP trades at $60 the investor will not receive the benefit of the price increase from $55 to $60 as they will be obliged to sell the stock to the call option buyer for the agreed $55.\n\nCovered call strategies work best when share prices are flat (also known as ‘sideway trading markets’ which means prices fluctuate between a narrow range for a period of time). Notice that even if BHP stays at $50, the investor earns $200. Their breakeven point is actually $48 (thanks to the premium), meaning they can withstand a 4% decline before making a loss. This income generation during flat, gradually rising or declining markets is the strategy’s key advantage.\n\nOn the other hand, selling a call option over your shares limits your upside. If the share price rises strongly, once it reaches the specified price of the option you have sold ($55 in this example), you won’t benefit any further – no matter how high the share price rises. This means if share prices rise strongly the covered call strategy can be expected to underperform.\n\n![A graph with a red line\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/a-graph-with-a-red-line-ai-generated-content-may.webp)\n\nFor illustrative purposes only.\n\n**When does this approach work best?**\n--------------------------------------\n\nAs the above example shows, covered calls typically perform strongest when share prices are flat, declining or modestly rising. Conversely, covered calls can be expected to underperform during strong bull markets.\n\nThe following chart demonstrates how an Australian equity covered call strategy (ASX: YMAX) has performed over the last few years compared to the S&P/ASX 200.\n\nThe orange line depicts the cumulative relative returns of YMAX versus the S&P/ASX 200 price index (ASX 200), when this line is trending up YMAX is outperforming the ASX 200, when this line is trending down YMAX is underperforming the ASX 200.\n\nThe black line depicts the returns of the ASX 200 in isolation, to visualise how the market is performing.\n\nDuring the past five years, as can be seen from the black line, the ASX 200 has experienced periods of strong gains, losses, and sideways trending periods – making this a useful period to demonstrate YMAX’s relative return profile in practice.\n\nIn the last few years, investors have experienced all of these scenarios – making it a useful chart to demonstrate theory in practice.\n\nThe red highlighted sections of the chart show periods of strong gains for the ASX 200 corresponding with YMAX underperforming (the orange line trending down). The green highlighted section shows a period of market decline corresponding with strong outperformance from YMAX and the blue section illustrates a sideways choppy market corresponding with YMAX’s cumulative relative returns grinding higher against the ASX 200.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Picture2-5-1400x920.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, Betashares, for the 5-year period ending on 30 September 2025. Chart shows cumulative returns for the Betashares Australian Top 20 Equities Yield Maximiser Complex ETF (YMAX) (using net total returns) versus the S&P/ASX 200 . You cannot invest directly in an index. Past performance is not indicative of future performance of any index or ETF. Chart is for illustrative purposes only.\n\nThese Betashares Funds employ a covered call strategy, meaning investors can participate in the benefits (and risks) of the strategy without having to become involved in the options market themselves.\n\nAs the Yield Maximiser Funds have been designed for investors who prioritise high income over capital growth, income returns can exceed total returns (i.e. income returns plus capital returns) in some circumstances. Also, as the Funds limit the potential upside growth of your portfolio, they may not be suitable for growth investors, or investors who hold a strongly bullish outlook.\n\nBetashares Australian Top 20 Equities Yield Maximiser Complex ETF (ASX: YMAX) employs a covered call strategy over the 20 largest stocks on the ASX. The Fund aims to provide:\n\n*   Regular income that exceeds the dividend yield of an equivalent portfolio of 20 blue-chip (large, financially sound and well-established) Australian equities\n*   The potential for some capital growth, and\n*   Lower volatility of returns than an equivalent portfolio of 20 blue-chip Australian equities.\n\nOver the past five years, as at 30 September 2025, the Fund has returned 10.82% p.a. after fees¹. It has a current 12-month distribution yield of 7.6% and a franking level of 45.1%². Together, YMAX offers a compelling combination of yield and franking that can help Australian investors boost their after-tax income.\n\nBetashares S&P 500 Yield Maximiser Complex ETF (ASX: UMAX) employs the same strategy over the S&P 500 using index options. Index options are options contracts that are based on the entire S&P 500 index rather than individual company shares. The Fund aims to provide:\n\n*   Broad market exposure to the S&P 500 Index (US equities market)\n*   An attractive income yield that exceeds the dividend yield of an equivalent portfolio of underlying shares alone\n*   Lower overall volatility than the underlying share portfolio alone.\n\nOver the past five years, as at 30 September 2025, the fund has returned 14.34% p.a. after fees1. It has a current 12-month distribution yield of 5.4% and pays distributions quarterly2.\n\nBetashares Nasdaq 100 Yield Maximiser Complex ETF (ASX: QMAX) employs the same strategy as UMAX but applies it to the Nasdaq 100 instead. The Fund aims to provide:\n\n*   Regular income that exceeds the dividend yield of an equivalent portfolio of Nasdaq 100 stocks\n*   Exposure to global growth leaders, with the potential for some capital appreciation\n*   Lower volatility of returns than an equivalent portfolio of Nasdaq 100 stocks.\n\nSince its inception in October 2022, as at 30 September 2025, the Fund has returned 22.65% p.a. It has a 7% 12-month distribution yield and pays distributions quarterly.

equities continued to rise last week, reflecting hopes of a US-China trade deal and a lower than expected US inflation report. Oil prices rebounded on news of US sanctions on two large Russian producers. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/chart1-2.webp)\n\nGlobal week in review: US-China trade talks\n-------------------------------------------\n\nThe on-again, off-again US-China trade talks were back on again last week after initial concerns that the US would place even more restrictions on China. The week ended with confirmation that Trump and Xi will hold talks this Thursday and both sides had already agreed to some de-escalation, with China delaying planned restrictions on critical mineral exports in exchange for the US dropping its 100% tariff threat.\n\nChina’s economy meanwhile is still holding up well with annual growth of 4.8% to Q3, down from 5.2% to Q2 although a touch better than the market expectation of 4.7%. Despite ongoing weakness in the property market and consumer spending to a degree, exports are filling the gap and keeping the government’s 5% growth target for this year on track. \n\nIn the US, some official economic data managed to get released despite the government shutdown, with a lower-than-feared 0.2% rise in core CPI prices in September (market +0.3%). While some tariff effects are still flowing through the goods sector – namely in clothing and car parts – they remain (surprisingly) modest elsewhere, while slower growth in housing rents helped to hold down overall core inflation. That said, it’s still too early to celebrate. Firmer house prices of late suggests rental inflation should rebound in 2026, while we’re likely to see further tariff effects flow through eventually.\n\nSo far this quarter, US earnings reports are also holding up well, although both Netflix and Tesla were punished by investors last week due to earnings misses. According to FactSet, 87% of the 30% of S&P 500 companies that have reported so far have beaten earnings estimates – above the 10-year average of 75%.\n\nLess encouraging was the University of Michigan consumer sentiment October reading, which was revised down to near-April lows amid peak tariff concerns. Households seem concerned about a weakening labour market and stubborn inflation pressures. On Friday, however, Wall Street remained more focused on the good inflation result and revived US-China trade deal hopes.   \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/consent.webp)\n\nSource: University of Michigan\n\nIn Japan, equities resumed their ascent with a newly formed coalition government early last week establishing the LDP’s new leader, Takaichi Sanae, as the country’s first female Prime Minister. Markets like her preference for stimulatory fiscal and monetary policies.    \n\nIn New Zealand, despite the weak economy, annual inflation lifted to 3% in Q3 from 2.7% in Q2, in line with market expectations and reflecting non-domestic demand related strength in food, council rates and electricity prices. The lift in inflation is expected to be temporary however, and should not stand in the way of further RBNZ rate cuts to support faltering economic growth.  \n\nAfter its recent parabolic rise, gold prices corrected somewhat last week although the underlying positive fundamentals – such as a weaker US dollar and US policy uncertainty – remain in place. \n\nGlobal week ahead: Fed & trade talks\n------------------------------------\n\nKey highlights this week include the Fed meeting, where another 0.25% rate cut is widely expected on Thursday morning (Australian time). On Thursday (US time), Trump and Xi are scheduled to hold trade talks. \n\nBoth the Bank of Japan and the European Central Bank also meet this week, but are expected to keep official rates on hold. \n\nGlobal equity trends\n--------------------\n\nAs noted above, Japanese stocks rebounded last week while the NASDAQ-100 was also relatively strong. \n\nAll up the relative performance of long popular themes – US/NASDAQ-100/growth – has rolled over somewhat in recent months and been replaced with strength in emerging markets and Japan. Australia and Europe are still underperforming, while quality and small caps are no longer underperforming.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/chart2-2.webp)\n\nAustralian week in review: Trade deal \n--------------------------------------\n\nThere was little in the way of major domestic economic news last week, with the highlight being the US-Australia trade deal over critical minerals. The latter will no doubt lead to more excitement within the resources sector.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/chart3-2.webp)\n\nAustralian week ahead: Q3 CPI\n-----------------------------\n\nAfter a long wait, this week we finally get the Q3 consumer price index (CPI) report on Wednesday, which will be critical to the RBA’s decision on whether to cut interest rates at next week’s meeting. According to the market consensus, the news may be just good enough to see the RBA cut rates next week although it would be far from a done deal. \n\nThe consensus forecast is for a 0.8% quarterly gain in the trimmed mean measure of underlying inflation, which would keep annual growth steady at 2.7%. That’s probably a touch higher than what the RBA expected, given it would then require a low 0.5% gain in Q4 to achieve the RBA’s year-end 2.6% forecast as outlined in the August Statement on Monetary Policy. Indeed, the RBA recently indicated that the August monthly CPI report contained some higher-than-expected price outcomes in housing and market services. \n\nThat said, given the recent weak labour market report in which the unemployment rate jumped to 4.5%, I still feel a steady 2.7% underlying inflation rate could be good enough for a November rate cut. After all, the RBA would still have another quarterly inflation report before it could be certain its 2.6% Q4 trimmed mean inflation forecast would be missed. If so, it could see the RBA hold off cutting rates in February 2026 instead.\n\nGiven volatility in the monthly inflation numbers, there’s also a chance that some of the upside pressure evident in August could unwind in the September monthly report (which would feed into the overall Q3 result).  My base case is a trimmed mean inflation quarterly gain of 0.7%, allowing the annual rate to ease to 2.6%.\n\nAustralian equity trends\n------------------------\n\nAs has been the case globally, notable shifts have been taking place in the Australian equity market. Among large caps, there’s been a rotation from financials to resources, along with a notable rotation from large caps into small caps. That said, small caps and materials had a pullback last week, although the energy sector enjoyed a strong bounce (reflecting the rebound in oil prices).\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/chart4-2.webp)\n\n**Have a great week!**\n----------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2507,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1835,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

investors recognise that building wealth starts with understanding the power of time. They think in decades, not quarters.\n\nTake Warren Buffett, who made almost all his wealth after he turned 50. Buffett didn’t build his [US$150 billion fortune](https://www.investopedia.com/articles/financial-theory/08/buffetts-road-to-riches.asp) on trending ideas he heard from his neighbours. Buffett built his wealth by doing deep research and analysis on the companies he wanted to invest in and then harnessed the full potential of compound interest.\n\nSimilarly, legendary fund manager Peter Lynch would likely not have made a [29.2% annualised return](https://www.tejwin.com/en/insight/implementing-peter-lynchs-stock-picking-philosophy-a-quantitative-strategy-combining-growth-and-value/) for 13 years if he had abandoned his strategy during a market dip. Lynch built his wealth by investing in what he knew and having an ultra-long time horizon ([20 years or more](https://acquirersmultiple.com/2025/02/peter-lynch-what-truly-separates-good-investors-from-the-mediocre/)).\n\nFor Australian investors eager to fast-track their wealth-building journey, having the patience to execute all this can feel challenging. But with the help of a few strategies and some self-discipline, investors have the opportunity to turn a small starting balance into significant wealth.\n\nWhy thinking in decades works\n-----------------------------\n\nConsider an investor who puts $10,000 into a diversified portfolio returning 9% annually. After five years, they would have around $15,000. After 20 years, that would become $56,000. After 40 years, over $314,000. Note, all return figures are hypothetical and before fees, taxes and other considerations.\n\n**Even without any additional capital, the same initial investment has been given the time it needs to compound.** Compound returns start slowly but accelerate dramatically over time. The first decade builds the foundation. The second and third are when real wealth creation happens.\n\nCompounding also helps explain a surprising fact about Buffett’s wealth, and why it only surged in his later decades. Not everyone may know that he didn’t become a billionaire until age 56 and that he accumulated 99% of his net worth _after_ turning 50.\n\n**But perhaps the most powerful advantage of thinking in decades is how it puts volatility in perspective.** Over weeks or months, markets can swing wildly. The ASX 200 can drop 10% one month and surge 8% the next. For an example of this, look at the market on a 12-month time horizon.\n\nBut zoom that same chart out to a five-year time horizon or longer and the falls suddenly look significantly smaller in context. Since 1900, the Australian share market has delivered positive returns in [roughly 70%](https://files.marketindex.com.au/files/statistics/historical-returns-infographic-2024.pdf) of all years. The longer the time horizon, the more short-term fluctuations become noise in an upward trajectory.\n\nThis shift in perspective can change investor psychology. A 15% market correction becomes a buying opportunity rather than a catastrophe; the fear that drives panic selling loses its power when someone knows they won’t need the money for 20 or 30 years.\n\n**It is also worth noting that most Australians already have practice with long-term investing, even if they don’t realise it.** Through compulsory superannuation, they’re investing for decades by default, often 30 or 40 years before accessing their savings. That built-in time horizon helps smooth out short-term volatility and rewards those who stay invested through market cycles.\n\nFor investors outside super, the same principles apply. The longer the time horizon, the more a person can see through short-term market volatility.\n\nSo how can investors build the habits that make long-term thinking second nature? These five strategies may help.\n\n### 1\\. Start with a plan\n\nEvery investor needs to know what they want to achieve: their goals, time horizon, risk tolerance and asset allocation. Writing it down makes it real. Some people even share their plan with their partner, friend or family member for accountability.\n\nBetashares spoke to an investor who shared his plan with his wife. Today, he has a portfolio [worth over $1.5 million](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/richard-ye-story/).\n\n### 2\\. Plan and invest for a longer life\n\nFinancial adviser Charlie Viola takes this thinking even further. He and his clients often plan with a [50-year time horizon](https://www.livewiremarkets.com/wires/building-a-robust-portfolio-from-the-best-ideas-of-livewire-live-2024) in mind. While that might sound daunting, Viola and his clients may be on to something. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, life expectancy is 81.1 years for men and 85.1 years for women – both some five years higher than 30 years ago. Instead of focusing on daily market movements, long-term investors can focus on building portfolios that meet goals decades into the future.\n\n### 3\\. Stay the course\n\nCreating a plan is only half the battle. The real test comes when markets turn volatile.\n\nGiven a 10% correction occurs roughly once every 19 months, a solid plan can prevent panic selling and rash decision making. In March 2020, the [ASX 200 fell 35%](https://www.rba.gov.au/publications/bulletin/2022/mar/australian-securities-markets-through-the-covid-19-pandemic.html) following the pandemic outbreak. But investors with at least 10-year horizons who had adequate cash reserves could stay the course.\n\n### 4\\. Treat volatility as opportunity\n\nDownturns can be unsettling, but they can also present opportunities.\n\nOver the past decade, the S&P/ASX 200 has delivered an annualised total return of nearly 10% per year. With a disciplined plan, investors can use cash to buy quality assets at lower prices during market downturns.\n\n### 5\\. Avoid the short-term cash trap\n\nWhile some cash is worth holding, hoarding large amounts comes with hidden costs.\n\nAustralian inflation has averaged close to the [RBA’s 2–3% target](https://www.focus-economics.com/country-indicator/australia/inflation/) over the past 30 years, though it has often fallen below or above this range, meaning the nominal returns from term deposits have frequently translated into negative real returns. Excessive cash also slows compounding – one of the most powerful forces in wealth creation.\n\nThe long-term mindset pays off\n------------------------------\n\nWarren Buffett once said, “the stock market is designed to transfer money from the active to the patient.”\n\nEveryone’s superannuation balance proves this on a daily basis. Workers who started contributing in their 20s and have continued to do so will have built substantial wealth by the time they are 60. Those who tried to time markets typically have not.\n\nThese strategies may help ensure an investor’s journey becomes a smoother one – thanks to a solid plan, a long-term horizon, the discipline to treat volatility as an opportunity and the knowledge that cash is not always king.","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2439,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1810,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

bias. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/chart1-1.webp)\n\nGlobal week in review: Still flying blind \n------------------------------------------\n\nWith US government operations still shut down (I note politicians still get paid!), markets remain bereft of official economic data on the health of the economy. In this vacuum, focus last week remained on simmering US-China trade tensions and a speech from Fed Chair Jerome Powell.\n\nThe US is trying hard to play tough guy against China but the latter is simply calling its bluff. That said, markets were encouraged by further comments from President Trump conceding high tariffs are not sustainable and all will eventually “be fine” with China. With regards to Powell, he still seemed more concerned with downside risks to employment than upside risks to inflation, arguing tariffs should likely only have a one-off effect on prices. \n\nIn other news, there were a few more wobbles in US private credit markets with two US regional banks – Zions Bancorp and Western Alliance Bancorp – indicating that some loans to credit funds that invest in distressed debt had been based on fraudulent information. This follows credit losses from the collapse earlier this month of two firms: car parts supplier First Brands and the car financier Tricolor. \n\nAt this stage, it’s way too early to suggest these wobbles reflect systemic problems in the US economy or private credit. After all, firms go broke every day and some losses on some loans go with the territory. Some of the issues with Tricolor – which lent mainly to undocumented lower-income immigrant workers – may reflect the US immigration crackdown.\n\nSo far at least, credit spreads on US high yield debt (see chart below) have widened so far this month but remain at relatively low historic levels, and are still well below the spikes seen in the early-April tariff concerns.   \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/spread.webp)Source: Bloomberg. As at 20 October 2025.\n\nWe did get further private sector data with the NFIB small business survey noting a dip in optimism, although overall small business confidence remained around long-run average levels. Pricing pressure also remained above average, consistent with sticky core annual consumer inflation around current levels of 3%.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/NFIB.webp)\n\nSource: NFIB\n\nGlobal week ahead: CPI, PPI and retail sales (maybe!)\n-----------------------------------------------------\n\nThis week was again supposed to be one in which we’d receive a smattering of key US economic data, such as consumer prices on Friday. But whether we get it or not depends on whether the US government reopens, and there seems little sign of that anytime soon.\n\nEither way, market expectations had pencilled in a 0.3% gain in core consumer prices for September – which would have been the third rise in a row – keeping annual core inflation steady at 3.1%. \n\nThe US earnings season also ramps up with week, with key reports due from Netflix and Tesla.  \n\nGlobal equity trends\n--------------------\n\nJapanese stocks pulled back a little last week after recent strong gains, while the NASDAQ-100 rebounded.\n\nAll up, however, the relative performance of long popular themes – US/NASDAQ-100/growth – has rolled over somewhat and been replaced with strength in emerging markets and Japan in particular. Australia and Europe are still underperforming, while quality and small caps are no longer underperforming.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/chart2-1.webp)\n\nAustralian week in review: Unemployment jump\n--------------------------------------------\n\nThe key local news last week was a softer-than-expected employment report which has re-raised hopes of an RBA rate cut next month. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/chart3-1.webp)\n\nEmployment rebounded a little less than expected in September, with a gain of 15k (markets were expecting 20k), after a 12k drop in August. But the big news was a surprise jump in the unemployment rate from 4.3% to 4.5%, with still-firm labour supply relative to weakening jobs demand leading to an increase in the number unemployed. Markets quickly raised the odds of a rate cut next month, although it still remains critically dependent on next week’s Q3 CPI report. \n\nTo my mind, the lift in unemployment means a steady annual trimmed mean inflation result of 2.7% next week could still be enough to see the RBA cut rates next month. A trimmed mean inflation rate of 2.6% or less would almost guarantee a cut, whereas a rate of 2.8% or higher would likely see the RBA pass on cutting rates. My view is that Q3 trimmed mean inflation will be 2.7% or less, hence providing scope for the RBA to cut rates next month. My base case, at this stage, remains for three RBA rate cuts by mid-2026.\n\nAustralian week ahead: RBA rhetoric\n-----------------------------------\n\nThere’s little on the local data front this week with the main highlight being a talk by RBA Governor Michele Bullock on Friday. She’ll no doubt be quizzed on the recent rise in unemployment and implications for interest rates – although will likely play a fairly straight bat. \n\nAustralian equity trends\n------------------------\n\nAs has been the case globally, notable shifts have been taking place in the Australian equity market. Among large caps, there’s been a rotation from financials to resources, along with a notable rotation from large caps into small caps. That said, local technology stocks also suffered a notable pull back last week.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/chart4-1.webp)\n\n**Have a great week!**\n----------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2437,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1806,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

broader Australian equity market has suffered two consecutive financial years of negative earnings growth. In fact, from the end of FY23 to FY25, earnings at the ASX 200 level fell 13%¹ – this is in stark contrast to the remarkable growth experienced in the US led by mega cap technology companies.\n\nHowever, this underwhelming headline for the ASX 200 masks strong pockets of growth under the surface of the Australian equity market. For instance, the Australian Information Technology (IT) sector has achieved a higher rate of earnings growth than its S&P 500 counterpart over this same two-year period². In FY25, the Australian IT sector grew earnings by a commendable 26.4%, trailing only the complementary Communication Services sector.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/ATEC-1-1400x934.webp)\n\nSource: FactSet data. As at 1 September 2025.\n\nUltimately, the poor earnings growth of the ASX 200 has come down the market’s makeup. Namely the concentration in lower growth blue chip companies and, over recent years, the suffering materials sector.\n\nWhile our IT sector has recorded strong earnings growth, and returns, it only represents 3% of the weight of the ASX 200 – this compares to 20% for Materials and 35% for Financials³.\n\nSo, is there a strong case for Australian investors increasing their allocation to local technology names?\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/ATEC-2-1400x934.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. 4 March 2020 to 14 October 2025. ATEC represents the live performance of Betashares S&P/ASX Australian Technology ETF. You cannot invest directly in an index. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.\n\nSeeking out strong earnings growth in the Australian market\n-----------------------------------------------------------\n\nFrom an earnings perspective, earnings being the main driver of long-term equity performance, Australian technology appears well placed to continue its run of strong growth.\n\nEarnings growth has been broad across the Australian technology companies with 75% reporting positive earnings growth for FY25 and over 30% of companies reporting growth of 50% or more⁴. By comparison more than half of the companies in the ASX 200 not in the IT sector reported negative earnings growth over the same year⁵.\n\nOver the next two years, the companies in the S&P/ASX All Technology Index are expected to grow earnings above 25%, not only outpacing the ASX 200 by three times, but also at a higher rate than the US IT sector⁶.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/ATEC-3-1-1400x847.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. As at 15 October 2025. Bloomberg analyst consensus forecasts. Actual results may differ materially from forecasts.\n\nAustralia’s monetary policy setting is expected to be another key driver of this growth. The Reserve Bank’s shift toward a rate-cutting cycle has created conditions that are typically supportive for Australia’s mid and small cap technology companies.\n\nRelative to large caps, these businesses are generally earlier in their lifecycle and are still expanding their product ranges and customer bases, leaving them more reliant on external capital to fund growth and more sensitive to borrowing costs. Consequently, easing cycles have historically favoured mid and small cap performance, relative to their large cap counterparts.\n\nTomorrow’s global technology leaders\n------------------------------------\n\nThe ASX technology sector already contains household names in Xero, a global leader in accounting software, CarSales, the leading car marketplace in Australia with international expansion well underway, and Life360, the US founded ASX listed location servicing app operating in 170 countries with 71 million monthly users⁷.\n\nBut it equally has a growing list of companies that could be tomorrow’s technology giants.\n\n### **ATEC Top 10 holdings:**\n\n| **Name** | **Industry** |\n| --- | --- |\n| Computershare | Financial Services & Capital Markets |\n| Xero | Accounting & Financial Management |\n| Pro Medicus | Healthcare & Medical Imaging |\n| WiseTech | Logistics & Supply Chain |\n| Carsales.com | Automotive |\n| Technology One | Enterprise Resource Planning |\n| Life360 | Consumer Safety & Location Services |\n| REA Group | Real Estate & Property |\n| NEXTDC | Data Centres & Cloud Infrastructure |\n| SEEK | Employment & Recruitment |\n\nAs at 15 October 2025. No guarantee any of these companies will remain in the portfolio or be a profitable investment.\n\nTwo examples of innovative companies growing into global leaders in Australia’s technology sector are WiseTech and Pro Medicus.\n\n**WiseTech – The future of global logistics today**\n\nWiseTech serves over 17,000 logistics companies across 195 countries, including 46 of the top 50 global third-party logistics providers and 24 of the 25 largest global freight forwarders. WiseTech’s flagship software, CargoWise, has progressed from serving small and medium freight forwarders to becoming close to the industry standard operational platform for freight forwarding, with its solutions offering logistics companies the opportunity to replace outdated legacy software with a highly efficient, automated, and integrated platform. The company delivered strong H1 2025 results with revenue of $381.0m (up 17%) and EBITDA of $192.3m (up 28%), achieving a 50% EBITDA margin⁸.\n\nAmong six top 25 Global Freight Forwarders using CargoWise since fiscal year 2011, container volumes grew by 82% through FY24, compared to 12% for the remaining top 25 forwarders not using the platform during that period⁹. The company maintains industry-leading customer retention with annual attrition below 1% for 12.5 consecutive years and 99% recurring revenue for CargoWise¹⁰.\n\n**Pro Medicus – Radiology reenvisaged**\n\nFounded in 1983, Pro Medicus has grown from a small Australian medical imaging software provider into a global leader in radiology IT solutions, servicing major US academic hospitals, healthcare networks, and imaging practices worldwide with its flagship Visage 7 platform. In H1 2025, the company reported record results with revenue of $97.2 million (up 31.1%) and net profit after tax of $51.7 million (up 42.7%)¹¹. Pro Medicus achieved an EBITDA margin of 75% and EBIT margin of 71.9%, remains debt-free with cash and financial assets of $182.3 million (up 17.7%), and declared a fully franked interim dividend of 25 cents per share¹².\n\nPro Medicus’ Visage software enables radiologists to view and interpret medical images at unprecedented speed, approximately 60 to 70% faster than legacy systems, significantly improving diagnostic efficiency and patient outcomes. This cloud-native platform replaces fragmented legacy systems with a single integrated solution, allowing healthcare organisations to handle massive imaging datasets across hospital networks and geographies.\n\nThe company now holds 9% of the US radiology market (up from 7% in 2024 and 4% five years ago) and has achieved a 100% customer retention rate since 2009 with customer volumes growing four to seven times faster than the industry average¹³. Pro Medicus future growth is leveraged to global aging populations and the likelihood of increased radiology needs in years to come.\n\nInvestment implications\n-----------------------\n\nAustralian investors likely have a low exposure to Australia’s technology sector given it has just a 3% weight in the ASX 200.\n\nFor those looking to allocate to the sector, Betashares partnered with S&P in 2020 to launch the [Betashares S&P Australian Technology ETF (ASX: ATEC)](https://links.betashares.com.au/asset/AU/ATEC). ATEC provides exposure to leading ASX-listed companies in a range of tech-related market segments such as information technology, consumer electronics, online retail and medical technology.\n\nATEC has returned, on average, 17.26% p.a. since its inception on the 4ᵗʰ of March 2020¹⁴.\n\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2432,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":245,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":464,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":35,"attributes":{"symbol":"ATEC","name":"S&P/ASX Australian Technology ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Gain exposure to Australia's dynamic technology sector","description_long":"ATEC aims to track the performance of the S&P/ASX All Technology Index (before fees and expenses).

hit US$4,000 an ounce for the first time last week and has enjoyed a stunning run since Trump came to power. Yet the rally could be far from over, Goldman Sachs has upgraded their forecast to US$4,900 an ounce, citing strong investor demand and continued central bank buying.\n\nUnderstanding the role gold can play in portfolios requires a grasp of the key market drivers – who buys gold and why? While jewellery fabrication and industrial use account for approximately 40% of total gold demand¹, the main catalyst behind major price movements is gold’s use as a financial asset. Investor and central bank flows together make up around 60% of demand, and have historically had a far greater influence on gold prices than consumers or industrial usage.\n\nWe have previously highlighted the [ongoing structural support from central banks](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/can-gold-go-higher/) seeking to diversify their reserves, particularly those from emerging market and non-US aligned countries. The additional catalyst in 2025 has been renewed gold ETF buying. You no longer have to line up at the Perth Mint or Australian Bullion Company to buy gold.\n\n1\\. Gold Bullion ETFs: Direct Exposure\n--------------------------------------\n\nFor investors seeking the most direct exposure to the gold price, bullion-backed ETFs provide an efficient, low-cost, and liquid vehicle. These funds are backed by physical gold bars stored in secure vaults and track the spot price of gold, minus fees.\n\nThis year global investors have been allocating to gold bullion ETFs as a portfolio hedge against geopolitical tensions and USD weakness on concerns about US government debt and Federal Reserve independence.\n\n### **Global Gold ETF Quarterly Net Inflows versus USD Gold Price:** **September 2020 – September 2025**\n\n![A graph with a line and a red line\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/a-graph-with-a-line-and-a-red-line-ai-generated-c.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, World Gold Council, as at 10 October 2025. Gold price returns shown do not account for any fund management fees and costs. **Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.**\n\nYet after years of outflows the total amount of gold held by these ETFs is still below its previous peak, and investors arguably remain underweight. So far gold has been the enduring “Trump Trade”, and we expect these inflows to continue.\n\n2\\. Global Gold Miners: Leverage to the metal and strong margins\n----------------------------------------------------------------\n\nBeyond owning gold itself, listed global gold mining companies provide leveraged exposure to the gold price, as revenues rise (or fall) with the price of gold, while their cost base remains relatively static.\n\nEven without a further rally in the gold price, many miners are currently generating strong free cash flows. The “All-In Sustaining Cost” (AISC) in gold mining is a standardised measure that calculates the total recurring cost of producing an ounce of gold, including not just direct mining and processing costs, but equipment costs, royalties, taxes and other overheads needed to maintain ongoing operations. As at the start of 2025, the average AISC of producing gold globally remains around US$1,500 per ounce, well below the current spot price.\n\n### **All-In Sustaining Cost of gold mining – global average over time**\n\n![A graph of a graph with purple bars\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/a-graph-of-a-graph-with-purple-bars-ai-generated.webp)\n\nSource: World Gold Council, 2012 – 2025.\n\nThis wide production margin is translating into improved profitability, stronger balance sheets, and healthier dividends across the sector. In fact, Betashares Global Gold Miners Currency Hedged ETF (MNRS) has been the best performing ETF on the ASX for the 12 months to 30 September 2025 returning 105.3%, and 15.24%p.a. over the prior five years.\n\nUnlike buying gold bullion, investing in gold miners allows for potential upside even if gold prices don’t rise further.\n\n3\\. Gold royalty companies: Exposure without the operational risk\n-----------------------------------------------------------------\n\nFor those seeking exposure to the gold price with lower operational risk, royalty and streaming companies offer a unique alternative. These businesses—such as Franco-Nevada, Wheaton Precious Metals, and Royal Gold—finance mining projects in exchange for a percentage of future production or revenue.\n\nUnlike traditional miners, royalty companies do not operate mines or bear the associated costs of labour, energy or capital expenditure. This structure allows them to maintain high margins and stable cash flow, even when industry costs rise. Moreover, because they collect royalties based on production or sales, their earnings have tended to benefit directly from higher gold prices without the same exposure to operational disruptions or the risk to shareholder value from late cycle gold miner M&A activity.\n\nThe royalty model has proven resilient across market environments, with royalty firms often outperforming miners during periods of cost inflation or when gold prices stabilise after a strong run. For example, Franco Nevada has increased its dividends every single year since 2008.\n\nBetashares ETFs: Three pathways to Gold\n---------------------------------------\n\nBetashares offers a range of solutions for investors seeking exposure to gold:\n\n*   [Betashares Gold Bullion Currency Hedged ETF (ASX: QAU)](https://links.betashares.com.au/asset/AU/QAU) provides a ‘purer’ exposure to the USD gold price, rather than the AUD price of gold, and as such adds value when gold appreciates on USD weakness. QAU has received strong inflows this year and now has $1.35 billion assets under management².\n*   [Betashares Global Gold Miners Currency Hedged ETF (ASX: MNRS)](https://links.betashares.com.au/asset/AU/MNRS) Offers exposure to a diversified portfolio of leading global gold mining companies, benefiting from the industry’s strong cash flows and leverage to the gold price.\n*   [Betashares Global Royalties ETF (ASX: ROYL)](https://links.betashares.com.au/asset/AU/ROYL) Provides access to a diversified portfolio of global royalty and streaming companies with attractive monthly income distributions. Gold royalties companies make up ~37% of the portfolio³, offering gold-linked upside with lower operational risk.\n\nWhether investors are seeking portfolio diversification, leverage to the gold price, or exposure to high-margin royalty businesses, Betashares provides a comprehensive suite of options to participate in the enduring appeal of gold.\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2431,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":244,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":461,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":41,"attributes":{"symbol":"QAU","name":"Gold bullion ETF -

you’d prefer to listen to this week’s Bassanese Bites podcast:\n-----------------------------------------------------------------\n\nEquities were treading water last week until US President Donald Trump threatened to impose 100% tariffs on China as well as export controls on critical US-made software. The news led to a sharp sell-off in equities, the US dollar and some commodities. \n\n_![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/chart1.webp)_\n\nGlobal week in review: Trump’s turnaround\n-----------------------------------------\n\nUp until last Friday, it’s fair to say global markets were meandering last week.\n\nThe US government shutdown was not yet hurting sentiment while Open AI’s pledge to buy a lot of AMD computer chips helped further bolster sentiment around the AI theme. Political instability in France saw French bond yields spike while a new leader in Japan saw Japanese stocks and bond yields rise on expectations of more fiscal stimulus. Finally, minutes to the recent Fed meeting confirmed the view it was likely to cut rates further this year.\n\nMarket sentiment was also buoyed to a degree by news of a major peace deal in Gaza. \n\nBut the major drama for markets happened on Friday following President Trump’s threat to impose 100% tariffs on China, due to the latter’s apparent announcement of new restrictions on rare earth exports the previous day. Markets reacted, with the S&P 500 and NASDAQ 100 down 2.7% and 3.5% respectively on Friday.\n\nWhatever the reality behind China’s apparent new restrictions, it all became moot over the weekend with Trump posting: \n\n> “Don’t worry about China, it will all be fine! Highly respected President Xi just had a bad moment. He doesn’t want Depression for his country, and neither do I. The U.S.A. wants to help China, not hurt it!!!” \n\nTrump seems to have chickened out once again.\n\nGlobal week ahead: CPI, PPI and retail sales (maybe!)\n-----------------------------------------------------\n\nThis week was supposed to be one in which we’d receive a smattering of key US economic data on consumer and producer prices along with retail sales. But whether we get it or not depends on whether the US government reopens, and there seems little sign of that anytime soon.\n\nEither way, market expectations had pencilled in a 0.3% gain in core consumer prices for September – which would have been the third rise in a row – keeping annual core inflation steady at 3.1%. Producer prices (PPI) were expected to bounce back 0.3% after a surprise 0.1% drop in August. While not great, these numbers would likely not be bad enough to stop the Fed cutting rates further this year given its newfound concern over the labour market.\n\nHow’s the labour market going? It’s hard to be sure as the shutdown is also preventing release of the latest payrolls report and will likely disrupt critical survey work for all future reports until it ends. It’s just as well the Fed now has a firm easing bias and private sector AI activity is booming as otherwise Washington might be having a larger negative effect on markets.\n\nIndeed, another distraction from the Washington circus in coming weeks will be the Q3 US earnings reporting season. It kicks off, as usual, with key bank reports this week. According to FactSet, earnings are expected to be up 8% on last year’s levels, underpinned by solid growth in the technology, utilities, materials and financial sectors. There’s been a modestly higher-than-normal level of positive earnings guidance.\n\nGlobal equity trends\n--------------------\n\nAs evident in the charts below, there’s been some notable new trends emerging in global equity markets over recent weeks, although whether it lasts remains to be seen.\n\nThe relative performance of long popular themes – US/NASDAQ-100/growth – has rolled over somewhat and been replaced with strength in emerging markets and Japan in particular. Australia and Europe are still underperforming, however, while quality and small caps are at least no longer underperforming.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/chart2.webp)\n\nAustralian week in review: Sentiment slump\n------------------------------------------\n\nAustralian markets were to have reacted to Friday’s US slump this morning, although Trump’s soothing words on the weekend are likely to limit the damage. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/chart3.webp)\n\nThe only economic event of note last week was a 3.5% drop in consumer confidence, likely reflecting disappointment over the RBA’s failure to cut rates at the last meeting. The drop highlights the continued sensitivity of consumers to the interest rate outlook.\n\nAustralian week ahead: Employment rebound?\n------------------------------------------\n\nThe main highlight this week will Thursday’s labour market report, with a 20k rebound in employment expected in September after the surprise 5k drop in August. The unemployment rate is expected to edge up to 4.3% from 4.2%. I’d consider such a result to be ‘neutral’ and still make November’s interest rate decision critically dependent on the upcoming Q3 CPI report.  \n\nOf course, another surprisingly weak employment report would boost chances of a November rate cut and make the decision somewhat less dependent on the upcoming CPI report – we’ll see!  \n\nThe NAB business survey for September will also be released tomorrow.  \n\nAustralian equity trends\n------------------------\n\nAs has been the case globally, there’s also notable shifts taking place in the Australian equity market. As evident in the chart below, there’s a rotation from financials to resources taking place among large caps, and a notable rotation from large caps in general into small caps. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/chart4.webp)\n\n**Have a great week!**\n----------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2419,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1773,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

are no charts or audio today due to travel commitments._\n\nGlobal week in review: Shutdown met with a yawn \n------------------------------------------------\n\nGlobal equities moved higher last week, reflecting optimism around AI and weaker US economic data, which heightened chances of further US rate cuts.\n\nThe main event last week was confirmation of a US Federal Government shutdown due to a failure to agree on budget bills. Given shutdowns tend to be relatively frequent in the US, markets greeted the announcement with a collective yawn.  \n\nThat said, the shutdown could eventually have some notable macro implications. For starters, President Trump has threatened to use the shutdown as an opportunity to fire more public servants, which could make a weakening labour market even weaker. An extended shutdown would also curtail government purchases and spending by public servants lacking pay, weakening economic activity directly. Some estimates suggest every week of the shutdown will shave 0.1% off Q4 annualised economic growth.\n\nSecond, the shutdown means we’ll be flying blind in terms of official statistical updates on the economy for a while. Last week, for example, the release of both weekly jobless claims and the all-important monthly payrolls report were delayed. \n\nGiven the current intense polarity in US politics, the shutdown risks being relatively long by historic standards. Indeed, the longest to date was 35 days during Trump’s last term in office.\n\nWhat US economic data was released last week came from the private sector, with the ADP payrolls report suggesting further notable employment weakness. According to the ADP, private payrolls declined by 32k in September and the gain of 54k in August was revised down to show a 3k decline. The US ISM manufacturing service also showed weak employment demand yet still elevated pricing pressure – no doubt arising from the tariffs. \n\nAt this stage, however, equity markets remain remarkably sanguine for two reasons. First, it remains a case of ‘bad news is good news’, as more economic weakness at least suggests the Fed is more inclined to cut interest rates further. Second, a flurry of deal-making around AI has investors still excited about the technology sector, and the potential boost to earnings and productivity down the track.  \n\nGlobal week ahead: Payrolls (maybe!)\n------------------------------------\n\nDepending on the length of the government shutdown, the highlight of the week ahead should be the delayed US payrolls report on Friday. Markets anticpated a still relatively soft employment gain of 50k. \n\nOtherwise, there are a bunch of Fed speaker littered through the week who will each give their own opinion on the outlook for rates. \n\nAustralian week in review: RBA holds\n------------------------------------\n\nThe highlight last week was the ‘hawkish hold’ by the Reserve Bank.\n\nWhile the decision to leave rates on hold was widely expected, commentary in the Bank’s post-meeting statement suggested it had found some discomforting inflationary signals from the August monthly CPI report. In turn, this suggests upside risk to the Q3 quarterly CPI report later this month and hence reduced risk of a rate cut in November. \n\nWhat signals? Pricing pressure in the housing sector and in market services has been a little firmer than the Bank expected in the past two months. In turn, this could reflect both the impact of the already lower level of interest rates on housing and consumer demand, allowing businesses some capacity to lift prices (or at least discount less) and so help restore battered profit margins. Indeed, we also learnt last week that the house price recovery is gathering pace, with a 0.9% gain in national prices in September. \n\nThat said, consumer spending was also firmer in Q2 due to extended holidays, payback for which may come in Q3. Indeed, the so-called ‘household spending indicator’ from the ABS suggested only modest 0.1% growth in consumer spending in August.    \n\nEither way, the Q3 CPI remains critical to the rates outlook. To my mind, an annual trimmed mean inflation gain of 2.6% or less – which is my expectation – would cement the case for a November rate cut. A gain of 2.7%, the same as in Q2, would make the case more line ball, and partly dependent on the next employment report. A gain of 2.8% or more would likely blow any chance of another rate cut this year. \n\nAustralian week ahead: Business & consumer confidence\n-----------------------------------------------------\n\nThe main highlight this week will be parliamentary testimony by RBA Governor Bullock on Friday, although it’s unclear what more she could say to markets beyond her extensive post-meeting press conference last week.\n\nThe NAB and Westpac/Melbourne Institute respective measures of business and consumer confidence will also be released. Any gains in sentiment are likely to be contained by the lack of an RBA rate cut of late – although, barring a major slump, neither are likely to be especially market-moving.  \n\n**Have a great week!**","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2404,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1761,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

are no charts today due to travel commitments._\n\nGlobal week in review\n---------------------\n\nGlobal equities edged lower last week, likely reflecting some consolidation following the previous week’s US Federal Reserve meeting. \n\nThere was not a lot moving markets last week, with a degree of post-Fed profit-taking likely occurring given the market’s recent solid gains. Fed Chair Jerome Powell delivered a balanced speech, largely explaining the rationale for the recent rate cut and highlighting the policy challenges posed by near-term upside risks to inflation alongside downside risks to economic growth, given ongoing tariffs. In her own speech, Fed Vice Chair Michelle Bowman was more dovish, suggesting the Fed should pay more attention to downside growth risks.\n\nAll up, current market pricing suggests there’s still a near-certain (90%) chance of a follow-up Fed rate cut at the next meeting in October.    \n\nDespite slowing employment growth, other US economic activity indicators are still holding up reasonably well. Annualised Q2 US GDP growth was revised up from 3.3% to 3.8%, underpinned by solid consumer spending.  Durable goods orders keep rising, helped by defence spending. Weekly jobless claims dropped back further to remain at low levels. \n\nOn Friday, the core consumption deflator confirmed still only limited tariff effects so far, with core prices up 0.2%, in line with market expectations.  \n\nGlobal week ahead: US payrolls\n------------------------------\n\nFriday’s September US payrolls report will be the key highlight this week. Markets anticipate a relatively muted 50k gain in employment, although with labour force growth also slowing, this is expected to be enough to keep the unemployment rate steady at 4.3%.\n\nJob openings data and ISM surveys on manufacturing and services will also provide other pulse checks on the health of the US economy. \n\nAustralian week in review\n-------------------------\n\nThe highlight last week was the slightly higher-than-expected August CPI report, with trimmed mean annual inflation only slowing to 2.6% from 2.7%.  \n\nAs happened a couple of months ago, markets again likely over-reacted to gyrations in the monthly CPI report – reducing the chances of a November rate cut to a 50-50 proposition. \n\nI still think there’s a good chance of a cut, with my base case being that the Q3 CPI report in late October will show annual trimmed mean inflation (based on quarterly data) easing to at least 2.6% from 2.7% in Q2. To my mind, that should be enough to justify another cut, and there’s even a good chance of a cut if the result is 2.7%. Anything higher would likely rule out a cut.  \n\nIn other data last week, quarterly job vacancies eased by 2.7% in August, to remain at above-average levels. That’s consistent with a gradual easing in what is still a broadly firm labour market. \n\nAustralian week ahead: September RBA meeting\n--------------------------------------------\n\nThe main highlight this week will be tomorrow’s RBA meeting outcome, with the Bank widely expected to leave rates on hold. In her press conference, RBA Governor Michele Bullock will no doubt be quizzed on what signal – if any – she took from last week’s August CPI report.\n\nMonthly house price data on Wednesday is also likely to show the market continues to heat up. Thursday’s Household Spending Indicator – a new and apparently improved version of the old retail sales report – is expected to show an ongoing gradual recovery in consumer spending.  \n\n**Have a great week!**","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2362,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1731,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

Whatever your goals, one truth holds: as you get closer, you want your savings protected.\n\nThis raises the key question: if the old playbook of cash and dividends is running out of road, where should investors look next?\n\nCash no longer goes far enough\n------------------------------\n\nFor decades, the default move has been simple: park extra cash in a savings account or term deposit. And plenty of Australians still do.\n\nAccording to APRA, Australians held over **$1.4 trillion in bank deposits**.¹ This is a figure that continues to grow despite falling interest rates and suggests many Australians are content with accepting lower returns as a trade-off for this security.\n\nBut while term deposits and high interest savings accounts are familiar, these vehicles often come with conditions like early access penalties or notice periods. This makes term deposits a less flexible vehicle especially for investors who need optionality. Locking in cash also exposes investors to reinvestment risk, meaning you could miss out on higher returns had the money been invested in other asset classes.\n\nIn addition, term deposit interest rates have declined significantly, largely in line with the RBA’s rate-cutting cycle.\n\nAs of September 2025, the best 1-year term deposit rate you can find at any Big Four bank today is 3.8%². That is only marginally higher than the RBA cash rate and well down from their late 2023/early 2024 highs³.\n\nIncome from shares is also declining\n------------------------------------\n\nDeclining interest rates isn’t the only challenge complicating the search for yield – dividend income from shares has also been shrinking. Since peaking in 2023, the ASX 200’s dividend yield has dropped to its lowest level in 25 years (excluding the Covid pandemic)⁴.\n\nSeveral of Australia’s largest listed companies (BHP⁵, Woolworths⁶ and Reece⁷ among them) [trimmed their full-year dividends](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/asx-quality-reporting-season-wrap/?utm_medium=organic&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=google&utm_term=google&utm_content=google) in the most recent reporting season, leaving even diversified share portfolios exposed to unexpected cuts. These developments underscore the need to consider strategies beyond traditional shares and cash.\n\nThe ETF that can serve as a cash anchor\n---------------------------------------\n\nThis is where enhanced cash or defined income ETFs can step in. These products provide access to assets typically reserved for institutional investors, offer regular income and give investors the opportunity to lock in today’s rates before they may go lower.\n\nFor investors already holding or considering adding defensive allocations, fixed income ETFs could represent a meaningful upgrade to traditional cash strategies.\n\nOne ETF idea that can help upgrade your income investing experience is Betashares Australian Cash Plus Active ETF (ASX: MMKT).\n\nMMKT invests in the kinds of cash and money market securities that are often reserved for institutional investors and is designed as a core cash holding in portfolios. The fund looks to deliver enhanced monthly income from cash and money market securities, while maintaining a high level of capital stability.\n\nSince its inception on 22 November 2023, MMKT has delivered a better total return⁸ on less volatility than the Bloomberg AusBond Bank Bill Index (BAUBIL Index)⁹. Over the last five years, BAUBIL has delivered a total return of 12.96%¹⁰. MMKT’s current yield to maturity net of fees of 3.93% (as at 22 September 2025)¹¹ is higher than both the best 1-year term deposit rate available¹² and the forward dividend yield of the ASX 200¹³.\n\n![A graph showing a line\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/a-graph-showing-a-line-ai-generated-content-may-b.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. As at 4 September 2025. Total returns (capital gains plus distributions net of fees) have been rebased to 100. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. You cannot invest directly in an index.\n\nMMKT can be a practical choice for those seeking stability, liquidity and a reliable core cash holding in their portfolio. The fund is a good fit for investors who want their cash to work harder without sacrificing peace of mind. But for investors seeking more than just a cash anchor, there are also options that provide predictable, attractive income with fixed maturity dates.","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2338,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":241,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":453,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":179,"attributes":{"symbol":"MMKT","name":"Australian Cash Plus Fund","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Earn attractive income, paid monthly, from cash and high-quality money market securities.","description_long":null,"fee":0.18,"createdAt":"2024-12-16T23:51:50.281Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:53.649Z","publishedAt":"2024-12-16T23:51:52.416Z","symbol_openfigi":"MMKT:AU","tags":{"data":[{"id":1,"attributes":{"tag":"income","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:06:02.686Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.669Z","mutations":"yield,passive-income"}},{"id":68,"attributes":{"tag":"money-market","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:36.405Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:13.587Z","mutations":null}},{"id":93,"attributes":{"tag":"money","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:39.234Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:18.282Z","mutations":null}},{"id":174,"attributes":{"tag":"bill","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:08.803Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:59.047Z","mutations":null}},{"id":176,"attributes":{"tag":"isec","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:08.854Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:59.142Z","mutations":null}}]}}}}}]},{"id":2339,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":1721,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Predictable and attractive income\n---------------------------------\n\nGiven the limitations and trade-offs that come with term deposits and term annuities, many investors are looking beyond these traditional options.\n\nThat’s where Betashares Defined Income Bond ETFs can come in.

The fund’s name reflects its bond maturity window; for example, 28BB holds bonds maturing in the 12 months leading up to May 2028.

It has one of the highest 10-year returns of any ETF in Australia to 29 August 2025, returning 19.87% p.a. This is a standout result, especially for an index tracking, broad market exposure.\n\nWhat’s also significant is just how much wealth the fund has created. Australians have entrusted some $3.85 billion of their savings to be invested in NDQ since its inception, and with that NDQ has generated over $3.67 billion in returns². The majority of that, well over $3 billion, has come in the form of capital gains, with another $430 million approximately paid out as distributions (as at 23 September 2025).\n\n![A graph on a black background\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/a-graph-on-a-black-background-ai-generated-conten.webp)\n\nSource: Betashares. As at 18 September 2025. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. Returns are calculated in Australian dollars using net asset value per unit at the start and end of the specified period and do not reflect brokerage or the bid ask spread that investors incur when buying and selling units on the ASX. Returns are after fund management costs, assume reinvestment of any distributions and do not take into account tax paid as an investor in the Fund. Returns for periods longer than one year are annualised. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown.\n\nThis performance has been possible because the Nasdaq 100 Index, which NDQ aims to track, contains many of the companies which have been the major forces in driving global growth and innovation over the last decade.\n\nAll of the current top 10 stocks have been held continuously in NDQ since its inception, however the makeup of the top 10 has changed considerably. Some, like Apple and Microsoft, were already cemented as core drivers of global growth a decade ago, while others, like Nvidia and Broadcom, have grown into household names driving the AI revolution today.\n\n| **Company** | **Current** | **NDQ Inception (26/5/15)** |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Rank | Weight | Rank | Weight |\n| Nvidia | 1 | 9.42% | 89 | 0.23% |\n| Microsoft | 2 | 8.28% | 2 | 7.40% |\n| Apple | 3 | 7.79% | 1 | 14.60% |\n| Alphabet | 4 | 6.23% | 4 | 3.84% |\n| Amazon | 5 | 5.38% | 34 | 0.73% |\n| Broadcom | 6 | 5.23% | 3 | 6.51% |\n| Meta Platforms | 7 | 3.71% | 5 | 3.41% |\n| Tesla | 8 | 3.32% | 31 | 0.73% |\n| Netflix | 9 | 2.77% | 36 | 0.61% |\n| Costco | 10 | 2.28% | 20 | 1.21% |\n\nSource: Bloomberg.

Companies like **Palantir (NASDAQ: PLTR)** and **Nasdaq Inc. (NASDAQ: NDAQ)** itself have posted strong revenue growth and higher profits. These results could be signalling a shift from concentration risk toward a more diversified growth profile within the Nasdaq 100.\n\nR&D spending remains a priority\n-------------------------------\n\nDespite their scale, Nasdaq 100 companies continue to invest aggressively in the future. Companies are allocating billions toward capital expenditure and R&D to stay ahead in key themes like AI, cloud computing and cybersecurity.\n\nAs a percentage of their sales, companies in the Nasdaq 100 have spent around 6.5x more in R&D, on average, compared to those in the S&P 500⁵. The top 10 constituents by R&D spend include Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, Apple and Microsoft.\n\nCrucially, this is all happening just as the benefits of AI spending are now extending beyond mega cap tech. As compute capacity increases, other Nasdaq 100 technology companies are scaling rapidly, improving margins and capturing new profit opportunities.\n\nEarnings expectations continue to remain strong\n-----------------------------------------------\n\nIt’s not just the backward-looking results that continue to impress. The consensus expectation for earnings growth for the Nasdaq 100 sits at 14.79%, far outpacing the figure for US large caps ex-Magnificent 7 (6.37%) and the ASX 200 (7.66%)⁶.\n\nThese figures show that companies within the Nasdaq 100 aren’t just leading today. These companies are laying the groundwork for tomorrow’s growth too.\n\nThe power of innovation-led investing\n-------------------------------------\n\nNDQ’s journey to its $7 billion AUM milestone is a testament to the combination of innovation, investing and impressive returns. As its earnings base continues to broaden out and companies continue to invest in future growth areas, NDQ remains uniquely positioned to help Australian investors tap into the next wave of global growth.\n\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2337,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":240,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":452,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":14,"attributes":{"symbol":"NDQ","name":"NASDAQ 100 ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Invest in the Nasdaq-100 in a single trade","description_long":null,"fee":0.48,"createdAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.495Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T07:17:36.266Z","publishedAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.494Z","symbol_openfigi":"NDQ:AU","tags":{"data":[{"id":3,"attributes":{"tag":"artificial-intelligence","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:12:28.475Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.094Z","mutations":"ai,llm,gpt"}},{"id":2,"attributes":{"tag":"growth","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:07:39.370Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.233Z","mutations":"appreciation"}},{"id":35,"attributes":{"tag":"high-growth","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:31.375Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:01.069Z","mutations":null}},{"id":20,"attributes":{"tag":"cloud","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-03-26T22:45:32.726Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.192Z","mutations":"cloud-storage"}},{"id":116,"attributes":{"tag":"america","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.579Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.579Z","mutations":"usa,us,united-states"}},{"id":128,"attributes":{"tag":"technology","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.966Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.966Z","mutations":"tech"}},{"id":192,"attributes":{"tag":"chatgpt","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:11.574Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:11.574Z","mutations":"gpt"}},{"id":202,"attributes":{"tag":"linkedin","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:12.279Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:01.680Z","mutations":null}},{"id":263,"attributes":{"tag":"instagram","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:19.367Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:09.126Z","mutations":null}},{"id":321,"attributes":{"tag":"amazon","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:29.216Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:29.216Z","mutations":"twitch,whole-foods"}},{"id":356,"attributes":{"tag":"snas","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:36.601Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:21.282Z","mutations":null}},{"id":369,"attributes":{"tag":"fang","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:37.199Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:21.441Z","mutations":null}},{"id":370,"attributes":{"tag":"lnas","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:38.475Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:24.098Z","mutations":null}},{"id":375,"attributes":{"tag":"salesforce","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:38.546Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:24.056Z","mutations":null}},{"id":376,"attributes":{"tag":"google","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:38.880Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:38.880Z","mutations":"goog,fitbit,youtube"}},{"id":404,"attributes":{"tag":"youtube","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:42.738Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:27.829Z","mutations":null}},{"id":282,"attributes":{"tag":"nvidia","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:22.834Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:10.384Z","mutations":null}},{"id":362,"attributes":{"tag":"tesla","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:36.700Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:36.700Z","mutations":"elon,elon-musk"}}]}}}}}]},{"id":2313,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1718,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nDisclaimer:\n\nThere are risks associated with an investment in NDQ, including market risk, country risk, currency risk and sector risk.

week in review\n---------------------\n\nGlobal equities moved higher again last week following the Fed’s widely expected rate cut and renewed hopes of a US-China trade deal. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/chart1-1-1.webp)\n\nThe Fed [cut rates by 0.25%](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/fomc-september-2025/) as widely expected and the ‘dot plot’ of Fed member expectations suggested two further rate cuts this year and one more in 2026. That’s one extra rate cut by end-2026 compared to the Fed’s June dot plot expectation, although still two less than the market expects next year. All up, markets considered the Fed outcome as less dovish than hoped, pushing bond yields up and equities down. \n\nIn somewhat reassuring US labour market news, weekly jobless claims dropped back down last week after having spiked higher in the previous week. The week ended with markets again encouraged by trade talks between the US and China – these persistent rumours are becoming the gift that keeps on giving! \n\nThe news was less cheery in New Zealand, with a much weaker than expected 0.9% decline in Q2 GDP (markets expected a 0.3% decline). The NZ economy continues to flirt with recession, suggesting the RBNZ can and should go harder in cutting interest rates in coming months.  \n\nGlobal share market trends\n--------------------------\n\nAlthough the US market is not outperforming as clearly as it has in recent years, global growth is still beating value and the NASDAQ-100 is still tending to outperform in global markets. Japan and emerging markets are also doing relatively well, whereas Europe and Australia have come off the boil. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/chart2-1-1.webp)\n\nGlobal week ahead: US PCED inflation report\n-------------------------------------------\n\nFriday’s August US personal consumption expenditure deflator (PCED) will be the key highlight this week. Based on the already known CPI and PPI results, the core PCED is expected to rise only 0.2% in the month (down from 0.3% in the previous two months) which, while welcome, would still keep annual core inflation steady at 2.9%. \n\nThat said, such a result would again have markets wondering about the continued absence of a major tariff effect on prices – given the average tariff rate on US imports has increased from 2.5% at the start of the year to 18%, and US tariff revenue has increased by US$250 billion (annualised rate) which is equal to 1.2% of US consumption.\n\nAlso out this week will be the global PMI industry survey which is expected to show activity still holding up at reasonable levels. \n\nAustralian week in review\n-------------------------\n\nThe highlight last week was the weaker than expected August employment report. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/chart3-1-1.webp)\n\nAs is the case in the US, employment growth has clearly slowed in Australia in recent months even though hiring intentions remain above average – with part of the slowdown reflecting weaker labour supply. \n\nIndeed, employment fell by 5.4k in August compared to market expectations of a 22k gain. Despite that, weaker labour force participation and slowing immigration meant the unemployment rate held steady at 4.2%. Given the inherent volatility in monthly employment and the fact that the unemployment rate held steady, my view is the report was not weak enough to force the RBA’s hand at next week’s policy meeting. \n\nAustralian share market trends\n------------------------------\n\nIn terms of local equity trends, tentative signs of a rotation from financial to resource stocks remain in place. There’s also been a notable bounce in relative small-cap performance in recent months. Quality – and increasingly technology also – continues to perform well. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/chart4-1-1.webp)\n\nAustralia week ahead: Monthly CPI\n---------------------------------\n\nThe local highlight this week will be Wednesday’s monthly CPI report. After a jump from 2.1% in June to 2.7% in July, the focus will be on the annual trimmed mean inflation result. \n\nPart of the reason for last month’s trimmed mean jump was likely indirect effects from the 13% rise in electricity prices, after government subsidies in NSW and ACT were temporarily ended. As these subsidies were reinstated in August, it’s likely electricity prices will fall again which may indirectly help bring down the trimmed mean measure of annual inflation – perhaps to at least 2.5% or less.\n\nIf so, this should have markets still confident of an RBA rate in November, with a modest chance (currently 10%) attached to a rate cut next week. \n\n### **Have a great week!**","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2311,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1714,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

today’s market, investment opportunities that can deliver both a solid income and a strong total return performance are hard to come by.\n\nThis is particularly the case given the RBA is continuing to cut interest rates, and, in the case of investors looking for fixed income, the Australian bank hybrid market being wound down¹.\n\nYet Australian investment grade corporate bonds have delivered just that.\n\nAustralian investment grade corporate bonds have been in what many would call a ‘perfect’ environment for the last two years. That’s because credit spreads have steadily narrowed over the period, thanks in large part to an improved macroeconomic outlook and strong corporate fundamentals².\n\nBut as we’ll show you, tight credit spreads are not the only reason this asset class is making waves among investors hungry for income.\n\n**What’s been driving strong returns in Australian credit?**\n------------------------------------------------------------\n\nTo understand why credit has been performing well, we first need to understand credit spreads.\n\nCredit spreads refer to the difference in yield between two bonds of similar maturity but different quality. The spread is the additional yield an investor earns for taking on the additional risks that come with investing in a lower-rated bond.\n\nSpreads are typically measured against a risk-free benchmark – for instance, a government bond or a comparable swap rate. For investors in fixed income (even those who access the asset through ETFs), spreads can have a significant impact on your returns.\n\nA compression (or decline) in credit spreads implies a more bullish sentiment among investors and may also indicate that the creditworthiness of borrowers (i.e. the companies issuing the loans) has improved. Since 2023, Australian dollar-denominated corporate bond credit spreads have compressed further than their US dollar-denominated counterparts.\n\nBeyond the topic of spreads, it’s important to note that the macroeconomic backdrop in Australia is relatively strong.\n\nThe RBA is, as of writing, able to cut interest rates with a backdrop of falling inflation and steady unemployment levels. Investment-grade corporations are also in good financial health with default rates sitting relatively low, according to figures compiled by major ratings agency Fitch Ratings³.\n\nFinally, offshore investors (particularly from Asia) have been showing strong appetite for corporate bonds. Provided this demand continues, then spreads and valuations are likely to follow suit.\n\n**Why is this outperformance likely to continue?**\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nAs the chart below shows, Australian dollar-denominated investment grade corporate bond spreads have compressed significantly, but they actually remain above their historical lows.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/AUDCorpBond-PUBLISH-1.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. As at 30-May-2025. ​**Past performance is not an indicator of future performance**. \n\nSecondly, in the current environment, the RBA is trying to bring interest rates down to a neutral level. That is, a level that generates economic growth but doesn’t cause a spike in inflation. If it can do this successfully, credit spreads could grind even lower, adding to the outperformance we’ve already seen.\n\nThird, provided there isn’t a massive default (bankruptcy) wave among large Australian corporates, confidence in those borrowers should remain. Even if spreads don’t compress much further, the quality of Australian corporations means that investors may still flock to these assets.\n\nAs hybrids wind down, could investors consider high quality credit?\n-------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nInvestors who have been using hybrids as an option to generate excess income continue to look for a place to park their cash as the hybrids market sunsets.\n\nAs of 25 June 2025, the bulk of the remaining bank hybrid market pays between 7-8% in running yield⁴. However, with bank hybrids due to roll off as a result of regulatory changes, investors are increasingly exploring more stable, income-generating options – such as investment grade corporate bonds.\n\nOne avenue for investing in these investment grade corporate bonds is through [Betashares Interest Rate Hedged Australian Investment Grade Bond ETF (ASX: HCRD)](https://direct.betashares.com.au/asset/AU/HCRD)\n\nHCRD provides investors with exposure to 50 local investment grade corporate bonds through an index⁵. Then, bond futures contracts are sold with the aim of substantially reducing the interest rate risk that investors may face.\n\nT Government bond yields are typically the largest contributor to the volatility of fixed rate corporate bonds. The hedging strategy essentially aims to mitigate this effect. While it may sound complicated, its results have shown that the strategy has worked so far – returning 9.24% p.a. from its inception in November 2022 to 30 June 2025⁶.\n\nBut best of all, HCRD pays a monthly distribution. This makes it a potentially attractive idea for investors who want a regular income option when their hybrid holdings are called.\n\n**Choose your own duration**\n----------------------------\n\nAll of this is to say that there is still potentially income to be made in Australian investment grade corporate bonds. And given they are now accessible in an ETF on the Betashares Direct platform, there is no reason for income-hungry investors to ignore what’s on offer in this asset class.\n\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1806,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1417,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Future results are inherently uncertain.

Also helping were two US inflation reports still suggesting only limited tariff flow-through into prices.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/chart1-1.webp)\n\nTwo reports last week highlighted the weaker outlook for the US labour market. For starters, there was a large downward revision to US employment growth over the past year, after the annual benchmarking of monthly establishment survey employment data to other wage and tax data was completed. Average monthly growth over the year to March 2025 dropped from 147k to only 70k, resulting in the level of employment being 991k less than previously thought!\n\nWhile large annual historic revisions to US employment growth are not unusual, it’s fair to say this year’s change was at the larger end of the usual range. US President Donald Trump likes to claim political bias in the data reporting but the Bureau of Labor Statistics suggests one problem in recent years has been a post-COVID drop in survey response rates – which adds to sampling error in the monthly employment estimates.    \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/revision.webp)\n\nSource: Macrobond, BLS, ING\n\nAlso on the soft side was a 27k spike in weekly jobless claims to 263k. As evident in the Bloomberg chart below, the occasional spike higher is also not unusual – and need not flag impending labour market doom provided it drops back down again soon. Seasonal quirks and a spike in Texas claims, due to possible delayed hurricane related claims, are thought to have contributed to last week’s outsized increase.     \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/claims.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, US Labor Department\n\nEquity markets took these results in their stride, especially as they only heightened the expectation that the Fed would cut interest rates this week.\n\nMarkets were also relieved by still limited evidence of tariff effects on US inflation. Producer prices for August were notably lower than expected, while the 0.3% increase in core consumer prices was again in line with expectations. Of course, while US inflation has not spiked higher in recent months, it is still travelling sideways at a level above the Fed’s 2%  inflation target.  \n\nMoreover, for all the angst over the recent weakening in the US labour market, the NFIB small business survey also released last week suggested sentiment remained at relatively healthy levels – which is a good counter-recessionary signal. \n\nThe European Central Bank met on Thursday and left rates on hold as widely expected. \n\nGlobal share market trends\n--------------------------\n\nAlthough the US market is not outperforming as clearly as has been evident in recent years, global growth is still beating value and the NASDAQ-100 is still tending to outperform in global markets. Japan and emerging markets are also doing relatively well, whereas Europe has come off the boil. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/chart3-1.webp)\n\nGlobal week ahead: Federal Reserve \n-----------------------------------\n\nThursday’s Federal Reserve meeting will be the highlight of the week. A 0.25% rate cut is widely expected, with markets attaching a small 5% chance to a 0.5% cut.\n\nAlso of note in the meeting will be an update of the Fed’s economic and interest rate forecasts. With upside risks to inflation and downside risks to growth, markets are unclear whether the Fed will signal more or less rate cuts over the coming year in its ‘dot plot’ of Fed member forecasts for the Fed funds rate. Back in June, the ‘dot plot’ suggested two further rate cuts this year and one rate cut next year.    \n\nAustralian week in review\n-------------------------\n\nThere was only limited local data last week with a small retracement in the Westpac measure of consumer confidence and a small bump higher in NAB’s survey of business conditions.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/chart2-1.webp)\n\nAustralian share market trends\n------------------------------\n\nIn terms of local equity trends, tentative signs of a rotation from financial to resource stocks remain in place, with markets perhaps feeling the worst could be over for earnings downgrades in the latter sector. There’s also been a notable bounce in relative small-cap performance in recent months. Quality continues to perform well while the relative performance of the local technology sector has moderated of late. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/chart4-1.webp)\n\nAustralian week ahead\n---------------------\n\nThe local highlight this week will be Thursday’s August employment report, with a moderate 22k gain in employment expected, which should keep the unemployment rate steady at 4.2%.\n\nIf so, this would confirm that the pace of employment growth has slowed in recent months – though not dramatically so. It in part reflects not only weakening demand but a slowing in immigration and a reduction in labour supply. Barring a severely weak report, this should keep market expectations for an RBA rate cut later this month at the currently fairly low level of 15%.\n\n### **Have a great week!**","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2266,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1692,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

markets are the engines of global growth. With vast populations, a rising middle class and advancements in technology, this region is expected to contribute about 65% of the world’s economic growth by 2035¹.\n\nNo longer are these nations reliant on traditional sectors such as agriculture and cheap goods manufacturing but have instead transitioned to become leaders of the new world in domains covering technology and finance.\n\nDespite this, investors often underappreciate these growth dynamics with emerging markets underrepresented in global portfolios.\n\nIn this note we explore how emerging markets are driving the future of global growth through unique demographics and technology, the roles they can play within investors’ portfolios, and why a passive exposure might make sense for investors.\n\nEngines for tomorrow’s future\n-----------------------------\n\nWhile many developed nations face falling fertility rates and lower potential growth, emerging markets offer strong structural growth opportunities with expected real GDP growth of 4.0% per year by 2030, compared to just 1.7% for developed markets according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF).\n\nUnderpinning this are sizeable populations which are both growing fast and becoming increasingly affluent. Over 80% of global population growth is expected to occur in these regions with the middle-class population forecast to double over the next decade from 354 million households in 2024 to 687 million households by 2034².\n\nThese trends will likely drive consumption levels higher with a trend towards premiumization and discretionary spending. Local companies are also positioned to capitalise on rising demand across goods and services – increasing both profit and share market return potential.\n\n **![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/BEMG-1-1400x902.webp)** Source: IMF Data Mapper. Real GDP growth data from 2026 to 2030 are IMF estimates. Real GDP measures the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of a country adjusted for inflation.\n\nTransitioning towards the new world economy\n-------------------------------------------\n\nBeyond demographics, much of emerging markets growth will be driven by the new world economy as nations such as China and India have or are already transitioning away from old world sectors such as traditional goods manufacturing and agriculture.\n\nNo longer are these countries subject to swings in these cycles but are instead home to new leaders across technology and consumer sectors, paving the way for more sustained periods of growth.\n\nThe resurgence of Chinese equities this year has been driven by the likes of Alibaba, Tencent and Xiaomi which have all seen strong earnings growth from the integration of home-grown AI models including DeepSeek R1 and Qwen3. Technological leadership has become a key strategic national priority for China, much as it has for the US.\n\nFurther, India’s push to integrate technology throughout its economy began in 2015 with the launch of the Digital India Program which consists of two layers: a) Aadhaar – a unique social security ID that uses biometric and demographic data, and 2) UPI (Unified Payments Interface) – an instant payment system.\n\nTogether, they set the right framework that would eventually facilitate the flow of credit across the country. In fact, more than 560 million bank accounts have been opened over the past 11 years with 67% of accounts opened in rural/semi-urban areas³. This surge has fundamentally transformed access to banking facilities for millions of previously unbanked citizens and has created a strong foundation that fuels investment and innovation.\n\nBeyond technology, we have also seen promising government-led economic reforms that have strengthened India’s capital markets including the country’s Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) where individuals can save and invest monthly deposits into mutual funds.\n\nAbroad in other emerging markets, Brazil’s pension reforms in 2019 and Indonesia’s focus on building infrastructure capacity are other developments aimed at creating a foundation for long-term economic growth.\n\nHow do emerging markets fit in an investor’s portfolio?\n-------------------------------------------------------\n\nWith these unique characteristics, emerging markets have historically demonstrated lower correlations and asynchronous economic and market cycles to US and developed markets. Hence, including emerging markets can increase overall portfolio diversification.\n\n **![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/BEMG-2-1400x832.webp)** Source: Bloomberg. As at 30 June 2025.\n\nAdditionally, emerging market equities are currently trading at attractive valuations which may provide further upside support. At a forward price to earnings ratio⁴ of around 14x, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index currently trades at a 35% discount to its developed market counterpart, significantly higher than the 20-year average discount of 21%.\n\nWhile part of that discount has been driven by weaker equity market performance in China since the 2020 covid period, we are seeing these emerging economies maturing with stronger institutional frameworks, fundamentals, and improving current account surpluses.\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/BEMG-3-1400x974.webp) Source: Bloomberg. As at 31 July 2025. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. You cannot invest directly in an index.\n\n**Why use a passive approach in emerging markets?**\n---------------------------------------------------\n\nWith the case outlined for emerging markets, investors next need to consider how they can gain exposure to this region.\n\nActive managers often come to mind when one thinks of emerging markets given the conventional wisdom that less efficient markets like emerging markets provide a fertile hunting ground for alpha to be made.\n\nHowever, data from Morningstar below paints a different picture with many Australian domiciled emerging market equity funds underperforming the MSCI Emerging Markets Index.\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/BEMG-4-1400x850.webp) Source: Morningstar Direct.

Analysis across 29 Australian domiciled Emerging Market Equity funds.\n\nInstead, a passive strategy may help investors capture potential structural growth winners of the future without having to pick individual regions. For example, India’s weight in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index has doubled over the last 5 years. Active managers who were underweight Indian equities during this period would have underperformed the Index.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/MSCI-India-Weight-1400x773.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg.

China and India weightings in MSCI Emerging Markets Index represented above.\n\nAnd whilst there are existing passive emerging market exposures in the market, many often come with high fees that direct physical replication (i.e., holding all securities of an index) approaches introduce.\n\nInvestment implications\n-----------------------\n\nInstead, the Betashares MSCI Emerging Markets Complex ETF (ASX: BEMG) aims to provide investors efficient exposure to the performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Net Total Return Index (AUD) through a swap-based exposure⁵. This structure helps minimise deviations of the fund’s returns from the index and enhances exposure to markets that are costly and complex to access directly\n\nAdditionally, at a management fee of just 0.35% p.a., it is one of the most cost-effective ETFs of its kind in Australia.\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2213,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":237,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":451,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":187,"attributes":{"symbol":"BEMG","name":"MSCI Emerging Markets Complex ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Access the growth potential of emerging markets","description_long":null,"fee":null,"createdAt":"2025-08-25T00:40:39.383Z","updatedAt":"2025-08-25T00:46:37.497Z","publishedAt":"2025-08-25T00:46:37.489Z","symbol_openfigi":"BEMG:AU","tags":{"data":[{"id":55,"attributes":{"tag":"emerging","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:33.358Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:33.358Z","mutations":"emerging-markets"}}]}}}}}]},{"id":2211,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1671,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"There are risks associated with an investment in BEMG, including market risk, emerging markets risk, currency risk and derivatives risk.

Namely, these are high return on equity (strong profits relative to shareholder investment), earnings stability (consistent and predictable profits over time), and low levels of leverage (minimal use of debt, reducing financial risk).\n\nThis translates to higher exposure to names like Telstra and Macquarie and lower exposure to BHP and CBA, alongside quality-tilted names from the mid and small caps (mid being those securities with a market capitalisation between $2 and $10 billion, and small between $250 million to $2 billion), including Pro Medicus, Hub 24 and Breville.\n\nQuality-tilted companies reported strong earnings\n-------------------------------------------------\n\n28 of AQLT’s 40 portfolio holdings reported full-year results this period, with average profit growth of 14.5% – significantly higher than the ASX 200’s 1.7% decline⁷.\n\nOf the companies that reported, only four reported negative year-over-year earnings growth with eleven companies reporting growth of 20% or more. By comparison, nearly half of the ASX 200 companies not held in AQLT reported negative earnings growth.\n\nThe outlier in AQLT’s portfolio was construction and mining contractor NRW Holdings (ASX: NWH), which saw net income fall 74% due to margin pressures⁸.\n\nGetting the big decisions right\n-------------------------------\n\nPromisingly, AQLT avoided holding many of the large cap stocks that suffered large share price falls on reporting days including screening out Woolworths, James Hardie, AGL and Amcor. However, as AQLT maintains exposure to the ten companies that make up the top 50% of the ASX 200’s market capitalisation, it does hold CSL.\n\nAQLT reweights these large cap companies by their quality attributes rather than their size. Many of the stocks included in the AQLT portfolio – ranging from well-established companies to lesser-known mid-caps – have helped it outperform the broader market since its inception in April 2022.\n\nAQLT’s largest underweight position, CBA, has historically led to underperformance for the fund. However, despite an earnings report featuring record profits and the company’s largest full year dividend ever, CBA is trading down for the financial year.\n\n3 individual company highlights\n-------------------------------\n\nDuring August, AQLT’s portfolio had 31 positive contributors and nine negative contributors. Just three stocks pulled performance down by more than 0.2%, while 16 boosted performance by at least that much.\n\nTurning to individual highlights from reporting season, several portfolio holdings delivered particularly noteworthy results, underscoring AQLT’s quality-driven approach.\n\n**Neuren Pharmaceuticals (ASX: NEU)** was one of the worst performing stocks on the ASX last financial year. This time, its August half year report was a standout (Neuren follows a calendar year financial reporting cycle). Neuren delivered record profit, increasing 88% YoY, driven by surging royalties for its signature drug, Daybue, with US sales almost doubling and further global expansion⁹.\n\n**Ramelius Resources (ASX: RMS)** was a strong performer within the struggling Materials sector. Ramelius, a gold mining and production company, saw profits surge 119% YoY driven by both higher output and stronger gold prices. With robust free cash flow and strong cash and bullion positions, we believe Ramelius is well-positioned to continue benefiting from gold’s recent highs¹⁰.\n\nFinally, **Monadelphous Group (ASX: MND)**, reported a 34.6% year-over-year rise in net profits in August 2025. Monadelphous, a leading engineering group to the resource, energy and infrastructure sectors, recorded record maintenance revenues alongside strong construction and engineering results highlighting the breadth of their income stream. The group also secured $2.5 billion of new contracts and lifted dividends by 24% underpinned by a strong cash position¹¹.\n\nA core allocation to quality companies can make a difference\n------------------------------------------------------------\n\nIn what was a volatile period for Australian equities and a tricky market for stock pickers, AQLT’s basket of high-quality companies, on average, reported strong earnings growth.\n\nAQLT is intended to serve as a core component of an investor portfolio – balancing an allocation to Australia’s largest companies, re-weighted by their quality attributes, with a mix of some of Australia’s highest quality mid-caps. AQLT’s approach may help investors find higher earnings growth from the Australian market that, at the ASX 200 level, has suffered due to slower growth in large cap companies.\n\nSince its inception on 4 April 2022, AQLT has delivered 14.49% in returns to its investors and has outperformed the ASX 200 by 5.07% p.a. over the same period.¹²\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2212,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":236,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":450,"show_chart":true,"asset":{"data":{"id":45,"attributes":{"symbol":"AQLT","name":"Australian Quality ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Invest in a portfolio of Australia’s highest quality companies","description_long":null,"fee":0.35,"createdAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.677Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:52.800Z","publishedAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.672Z","symbol_openfigi":null,"tags":{"data":[{"id":17,"attributes":{"tag":"mining","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-03-26T22:44:49.499Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.128Z","mutations":"miners,mines,extraction"}},{"id":19,"attributes":{"tag":"finance","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-03-26T22:45:12.476Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.729Z","mutations":"financials"}},{"id":82,"attributes":{"tag":"quality","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:37.124Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:14.976Z","mutations":null}},{"id":114,"attributes":{"tag":"banks","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.538Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.538Z","mutations":"banking,bank"}},{"id":181,"attributes":{"tag":"qlty","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:09.254Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:59.260Z","mutations":null}},{"id":311,"attributes":{"tag":"qual","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:27.341Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:13.686Z","mutations":null}},{"id":386,"attributes":{"tag":"stability","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.427Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.427Z","mutations":"stable"}},{"id":380,"attributes":{"tag":"value","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:39.059Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:24.233Z","mutations":null}},{"id":385,"attributes":{"tag":"telstra","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.425Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:25.635Z","mutations":null}},{"id":391,"attributes":{"tag":"officeworks","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.569Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:25.694Z","mutations":null}},{"id":392,"attributes":{"tag":"cba","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.830Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.830Z","mutations":"commonwealth-bank"}},{"id":383,"attributes":{"tag":"bunnings","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.334Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:25.602Z","mutations":null}},{"id":382,"attributes":{"tag":"kmart","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.332Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:25.604Z","mutations":null}},{"id":389,"attributes":{"tag":"westpac","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.483Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:26.117Z","mutations":null}}]}}}}}]},{"id":2209,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1667,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"There are risks associated with an investment in AQLT, including market risk and non-traditional index methodology risk.

to travel commitments, this is an abbreviated edition of Bites without charts._\n\nGlobal week in review\n---------------------\n\nGlobal equity markets inched ahead last week, with the S&P 500 rising 0.3% to a new record high. After initially rising on public debt concerns, US bond yields eventually fell as more evidence emerged of a slowing in the US labour market. US 10-year bond yields fell 0.15% to 4.08%, with markets now not only sure the Fed will cut rates by 0.25% this month but also attaching a [10% probability of a 0.5% rate cut](https://www.reuters.com/markets/wealth/fed-track-string-rate-cuts-labor-market-weakens-2025-09-05/).\n\nLast week began with tremors in global bond markets, as a sudden apparent upsurge in investors’ concerns with the public debt outlook – and maybe the independence of the US Federal Reserve – led to higher bond yields and associated weakness in equity markets. Political instability in France, which also has a worrying budget deficit, added to the bond market gyrations.  \n\nAll these concerns were quickly forgotten as the week progressed, however, with growing evidence of a weakening in the US labour market. Job openings and then private ADP payrolls both came in weaker than expected, with the icing on the cake being Friday’s official payrolls data, which revealed a modest 22k employment gain in August (markets were expecting +75k). Revised data also showed employment actually fell by 13k in June although it bounced back 79k in July. Despite the weak employment growth, the unemployment rate only edged slightly higher to 4.3% from 4.2% – reflecting weaker growth in labour supply. \n\nAll up, it seems increasingly clear that the tariff mayhem over recent months has now led to a freeze on hiring plans by many US businesses. A slowdown in immigration is adding to the drop off in jobs growth. At the same time, persistently firm inflation is eating into household real incomes and slowing consumer spending. All this need not imply a recession, but it is a timely reminder that Trump’s tariff uncertainty and crackdown on illegal immigration is finally having consequences in terms of both demand and supply in the economy. \n\nSo far at least, however, Wall Street is taking the evidence of economic weakening as a case of “bad news is good news” – in that it at least means the Fed is even more likely to cut interest rates this month. Markets may also be hoping that the [Trump “TACO” trade](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/taco-trade/) could come back into play, with the President less likely to keep wielding his tariff stick around if it looks to be hurting the economy.    \n\nGlobal week ahead: US CPI\n-------------------------\n\nPressure on US markets could intensify this week with the release of the August Consumer Price Index on Thursday (US time). Core prices are again expected to rise 0.3%, which would push up the annual rate from 3.1% to 3.2%. The Producer Price Index is released a day earlier and is also expected to rise 0.3%. Firm inflation – and especially any upward surprise – following last week’s news of a slowing labour market could add to market chatter around short-run “stagflation” risks in the US economy. \n\nThe European Central Bank also meets on Thursday. With rates already down to 2%, core inflation a little above the 2% target and the economy holding up okay, the ECB seems in little rush to cut rates again anytime soon – although it will likely retain an easing policy bias.\n\nAustralian week in review\n-------------------------\n\nThe key highlight last week was the modestly stronger-than-expected [Q2 GDP report](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/q2-2025-gdp/). The economy grew 0.6% in the June quarter, helped by a surprisingly solid 0.9% gain in consumer spending. The ABS itself suggested consumer spending could have been boosted by increased tourism “driven by people taking time off from work due to the proximity of the Easter and ANZAC Day public holiday.” As such, some of the welcome strength in consumer spending might just be a seasonal quirk, with potential payback in the September quarter. \n\nRenewed weakness in housing construction and ongoing weakness in business investment was less pleasing. Long strong public demand has moderated this year, with the slack so far only being taken up by a potentially temporary lift in consumer spending. \n\nEither way, the better-than-expected GDP result likely reduced the pressure on the RBA to cut interest rates this month, especially after last week’s strong bounce back in [monthly trimmed mean annual inflation](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/cpi-crushes-cut-hopes/) from 2.1% to 2.7%. My base case remains the RBA will wait until November to cut rates again and only provided the Q2 CPI shows a further easing in annual trimmed mean inflation from 2.7% to 2.6% or less.\n\nAustralian week ahead\n---------------------\n\nThere’s only second tier data due out this week with the National Australia Bank business survey tomorrow and the Westpac-Melbourne Institute measure of consumer confidence on Wednesday. Both reports are likely to suggest further modest gains in business and consumer sentiment respectively, given last week’s better than expected GDP report and ongoing hopes of lower interest rates in coming months.\n\n### **Have a great week!**","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2204,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1657,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

Australia, investors enjoy a built-in advantage which makes growing their wealth simpler and more effective.\n\nThat advantage lies in our dividend imputation system, with franking credits sitting at its core. These credits let shareholders reduce their personal income tax bill – and sometimes even receive a refund.\n\nWhile this system has been good to investors for many years, the environment is changing. Bloomberg data shows that Australian 12-month forward dividend yields are currently at 25-year lows¹. In addition, just as bank hybrid begin rolling off for good. Put simply, it might be time for income investors to consider not just how much franked income they earn, but where it’s coming from.\n\nThe franking credits system – in a nutshell\n-------------------------------------------\n\nFranking credits have become a core part of Australia’s investing culture since they were introduced in 1987². These tax offsets reduce the levy already paid by companies, helping investors avoid double taxation on dividends. \n\nIn Australia, many publicly listed entities attach franking credits to the dividends they pay. Companies have the option of paying fully franked dividends – where the entire dividend has tax already paid – or partly franked dividends, which include only a portion of tax credits. Some examples of individual companies that have historically paid fully franked dividends include Woolworths, Telstra and Commonwealth Bank. An example of a company that historically pays a partially franked dividend is Macquarie Group.\n\nThese credits reflect the tax that the company has already paid. Shareholders can then use the franking credits to reduce their personal income tax bill. If your tax bill is low enough, you might even receive a refund at the end of the financial year³.\n\nThis system, as it currently stands, is rare and generous. Outside of Australia, only five other countries have a full imputation system like ours⁴.\n\nFranking credits are cherished by many investors but particularly by SMSFs, retirees and low tax rate investors. These investors benefit the most from this system⁵.\n\nThe state of franked dividends in Australia\n-------------------------------------------\n\nAs at the end of December 2024, 111 members of the S&P/ASX 300 pay fully franked dividends⁶. However, as earnings have been declining in parts of the Australian corporate sector, and company boards become more cautious given the uncertainty in the economy, there are arguably fewer companies that can afford to continue paying the high levels of fully franked dividends that investors have come to expect.\n\n![A pie chart with numbers and symbols\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/a-pie-chart-with-numbers-and-symbols-ai-generated.webp)\n\nSource: S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC, FactSet. Data as of Dec. 31, 2024. Franking percentage based on dividend events during the past 12 months. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Chart is provided for illustrative purposes.\n\nAs of the end of July 2025, 55% of all dividends paid out by the S&P/ASX 200 come from just ten companies. This concentration means that while franked dividends are still available, they are increasingly reliant on a small group of stocks, many of which are mature and cyclical.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/ASX-200-Earnings-and-Div-Yields-1400x765.webp)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. May 2000 to July 2025. Dividend yield is cash yield before franking, based on trailing 12-months of dividends and the current index level at the time. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. \n\nOne company that serves as an example of this trend is BHP (ASX: BHP), which recently declared a full year dividend payout of US$1.10/share⁷. While this is a fully franked figure, it is the lowest full year payout since 2016/17 and follows a 26% decline in full year profits⁸.\n\nAnother example is Woolworths (ASX: WOW), which recently reported a 17% drop in net profit and cut its final dividend by 41% to 45 cents per share⁹. This was a larger drop than anticipated by investors and analysts. Combined with a cautious FY26 outlook, the result saw shares fall more than 15% on the day of the announcement (27 August 2025).\n\nBoth these examples highlight how uneven the income opportunity set has become. While some companies continue to deliver sustainable franked income, others are forecast to deliver less. In this environment, a diversified approach to income investing is essential.\n\nDoes franking still apply if I hold ETFs?\n-----------------------------------------\n\nThe short answer is a clear yes. When the underlying holdings of an ETF pay dividends, the franking credits may be passed directly on to investors – as if the investor held them directly.\n\nThis means ETFs can not only save you the time and effort of investing in individual shares but also open you up to a wide array of franking opportunities.\n\nOne thing worth noting is that although some Betashares ETFs pay income monthly, franking credits are tallied and passed on at the end of the financial year. That’s when the ETF calculates how much tax was already paid on the dividends it received and how much of it can be passed onto you.\n\n### Two ways to tap into franking\n\nThe good news for income investors is that franked income is no longer limited to investing in individual shares. ETFs have the potential to pay out a competitive franked income while giving investors the opportunity to access many of the companies that distribute these payouts in a convenient and cost-effective way.\n\nTwo Betashares ETFs that make the most of this franking theme are **Betashares High Yield Australian Shares ETF (ASX: HYLD)** and **Betashares Australian Dividend Harvester ETF (ASX: HVST)**. Both deliver franked income but do so in different ways.\n\nBetashares S&P Australian Shares High Yield ETF (HYLD) aims to track the S&P/ASX 200 High Yield Select Index, offering exposure to 50 Australian companies with high forecast dividend yields. The Index screens out potential ‘dividend traps’ such as companies projected to pay unsustainably high dividend yields, as well as companies that exhibit high levels of volatility relative to their forecast dividend payout. It’s designed as a core Australian share exposure that provides attractive income for investors.\n\nBetashares Australian Dividend Harvester Active ETF (HVST), by contrast, is built specifically for income-centric investors like SMSFs and retirees. The fund follows a rules-based strategy to select 40–60 shares from the largest 100 on the ASX, targeting those expected to deliver strong dividend and franking outcomes. This portfolio is refreshed every three months to stay aligned with its income-focused goals.\n\nBoth ETFs seek to pay out monthly distributions with franking credits attached. This feature allows investors who value regular cash flow the benefits of receiving monthly distributions, while also accumulating franking credits that are passed on at the end of the financial year.\n\nIt’s important to keep in mind that dividend yields and franking levels can vary over time. This is particularly true for tactical strategies like the one used in HVST, so investors should remain mindful of how these factors may evolve.\n\nFranking is as Australian as Ampol\n----------------------------------\n\nFor investors looking for fully franked income, HYLD and HVST provide two straightforward ways to tap into Australia’s dividend advantage. Whether you’re after consistency, tactical opportunity or both, these funds let you enjoy all the benefits of franking credits in a simple and popular investment vehicle.

In fact, companies like Palantir and Netflix posted faster revenue growth than the Mag 7 during the Q2 reporting season, underscoring how AI adoption is accelerating across a broader swathe of the market. The impact of all this AI investment will also likely be felt across many other sectors, such as utilities, healthcare and transport.\n\nFor broad exposure to the AI megatrend, you could consider Betashares Nasdaq 100 ETF.

Richard Ye, investing isn’t just about building wealth. It’s his favourite hobby.\n\n“Investing is my video game,” Ye says.\n\n“Either you’ll be happy because you reached your goal, or you’ll tweak your strategy if you didn’t.”\n\nBut for the Melbourne-based, Chinese-born accountant and father, investing isn’t primarily about the money. For him, it’s a challenge and a constant work in progress – a mindset that drives him to reach and even extend his financial ambitions.\n\n![A person in a red jacket and hat holding up a peace sign\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/a-person-in-a-red-jacket-and-hat-holding-up-a-peac.jpeg)Richard enjoying the Formula 1 in Melbourne. (Supplied)\n\nExperience matters\n------------------\n\nYe had his first exposure to investing as a teenager, at around the same time China’s financial landscape was undergoing rapid change. That first experience shaped the way he has thought about money ever since.\n\n“Although I decided to have a full-time job after I graduated, I’ve always kept my eyes on markets and would call myself a constant learner,” Ye says.\n\nFive years ago, he picked up investing in the Australian market. While he wasn’t completely learning from scratch, Ye estimates he spent three years learning about the Australian market and its unique quirks, like dividend franking and hybrids.\n\nToday, he holds a combination of hybrids, ETFs (both local and global) and shares. In total, his portfolio is worth $1.5 million and counting.\n\nA plan keeps you accountable\n----------------------------\n\nYe is the first to admit that staying on track as a long-term investor is not always easy – because emotions can have such a lasting impact on your financial decisions. In fact, when ASIC conducted a survey of young investors, nearly 50% of survey respondents admitted they invested in certain assets because they [didn’t want to miss out](https://www.asic.gov.au/about-asic/news-centre/find-a-media-release/2022-releases/22-215mr-asic-releases-research-about-investment-behaviour/).\n\n“I’m not as disciplined as I want to be,” Ye says. “Don’t underestimate the human impact, you’re not a machine.”\n\n“One very important thing I do is have a written plan in place.”\n\nYe recommends people share their plan with someone they trust – a partner, for instance – and suggests keeping it in a visible place. Additionally, he tracks his progress via a Morningstar portfolio tracking tool which, even for this accountant, is simpler than toying with an Excel spreadsheet.\n\nFocus on consistency over holding out for a lower price\n-------------------------------------------------------\n\nYe also aspires to be a more consistent investor, recognising that a sense of “greed” – a temptation that arises from his continual efforts to buy at the lowest possible price – often influences his behaviour.\n\nOne such example of this principle occurred earlier this year.\n\n‘Liberation Day’, declared by US President Donald Trump on 2 April 2025, marked the announcement of sweeping tariffs targeting nearly every major global economy. For Ye, it was a prime buying opportunity that he wishes he took greater advantage of.\n\n“I have ‘greed’. But it’s not about selling greedy, I’m more about trying to buy low. I always try to buy low, like during Liberation Day. I knew it would be a great chance, but it passed too quickly. I didn’t buy enough in April,” Ye says.\n\nBut, as many investors can attest to, timing the market is always harder to achieve than it sounds. To help him stay focused and so he avoids second-guessing his investment timing, Ye uses Betashares Direct’s auto-invest feature.\n\n“Automatic investments can minimise the fear and any human error,” he says.\n\n![A person standing on a railing by a body of water\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/a-person-standing-on-a-railing-by-a-body-of-water.jpeg)Richard enjoying the Victorian seaside. (Supplied)\n\nYou’d rather test and fail, rather than not test and miss out\n-------------------------------------------------------------\n\nYe’s next tip is the one that’s the simplest to say but may be the hardest to achieve in practice – test your theory.\n\n“You have to learn. You have to test. You may make a mistake. But once you’ve tried something, you’ll know more about yourself and your investments,” Ye says.\n\nOne of his tests, and one that turned out to be highly successful, was investing in bank hybrids.\n\n“I think the biggest risk for a lot of investors like me has been that you don’t dare to put a large chunk of money into an investment,” Ye says. “\\[But\\] hybrids have been a kind of gold mine for me.”\n\nNo new bank hybrids are being issued in Australia, and the remaining ones will gradually be phased out over the next seven years. Ye plans to hold onto his bank hybrids as they roll off, but thinks it will be a couple of years before he is able to find a suitable replacement.\n\nThe last Australian bank hybrids will be called in March 2032, ending a much-loved avenue for Australian investors who sought reliable, stable and homegrown income.\n\nSuccess isn’t always material\n-----------------------------\n\nYe shares something in common with investing greats like Warren Buffett and Carlos Slim Helú – he knows that true success isn’t measured purely in material terms. Because of this, he says he’s always been a little more low-key than other investors his age.\n\n“Since we came to Australia from China, I think relatively speaking that we are very low key. I never really buy things,” Ye says.\n\n“I don’t think that I’d put my money into a boat or a new home. I do manage my spending very carefully.”\n\nWhat Richard plans to do when he reaches his goals\n--------------------------------------------------\n\nWhen I asked Ye what he would like to do once he reaches his financial goal, his answer wasn’t a new car or a house. Instead, he would love to attend the Bayreuth Festival, an annual music event which celebrates the work of famed 19ᵗʰ century German composer Richard Wagner.\n\n“I would love to spend more time enjoying the arts in Europe. I especially have an interest in classical music and the opera,” Ye tells me.\n\nHe also wants to continue supporting organisations like the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. It’s a reminder that, for him, investing is as much about the lessons he learns and the personal passions he wants to pursue as it is about the returns.\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2147,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1621,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

The share price soared almost 200 times from its April 2020 low, hitting a pre-market high of nearly US$500 per share on 28 January 2021¹. It looked like a win for the retail investors who were trying to upset the pros at their own game. Four days later, however, the stock price was worth 80% less – and a lot of those same investors were left licking their wounds.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Articles_MemeStocks_In-article_1_1-1-1400x788.jpg)\n\nGameStop’s story would prove not to be the last in the “meme stock” saga, and its significance continues to be felt by investors of all stripes.\n\nGameStop has had many imitators since\n-------------------------------------\n\nGameStop was the original example of what has come to be known as a meme stock. These are companies that gain popularity (in some cases, cult-like) among retail investors through social media. They are often proliferated through websites like X and Reddit forums such as r/WallStreetBets, which is where the GameStop story started.\n\nOther stocks have become meme stocks too. Examples include\n\n*   BlackBerry\n*   Nokia\n*   Bed Bath & Beyond, and more recently\n*   Krispy Kreme\n*   OpenDoor Technologies\n\nAlthough these are five vastly different businesses, their stories have similar traits. As the [Nasdaq Index Research Team](https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/everything-you-need-to-know-about-meme-stocks-2021-06-09) summarise:\n\n*   **Early adopter phase**: A large handful of investors believe a particular stock is undervalued and begin to buy in large quantities.\n*   **Middle phase**: People who are paying attention begin to notice the increase in volume. More individuals start buying and the stock’s price skyrockets.\n*   **Late/FOMO phase**: Word about the stock spreads across social media and online forums. Fear of missing out, or FOMO, takes hold and more retail investors join in.\n*   **Profit taking phase**: Sometimes, after only a few days, some investors begin to cash out. Just like the buying phase, the selling phase becomes a chain reaction as people fear losing money. This is when the meme stock cycle ends.\n\nIn other words, it’s a ripple effect: volume builds, investors pile in and the hype gathers pace. But when sentiment turns, those ripples can quickly become waves in the opposite direction, pulling the stock price down along with it.\n\nThe frenzy almost never ends well\n---------------------------------\n\nIn the case of Bed Bath & Beyond, the share price of the home furnishings retailer surged in January 2021. In one day (11 January 2023), Bed Bath & Beyond shares jumped 69%². Its stock was among the top three companies traded in a single day on an American retail trading platform.\n\nBut in just a matter of days, it lost all that steam. Less than two years later, Bed Bath & Beyond filed for bankruptcy and delisted from the stock exchange.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/BBBY-New-1400x870.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. Note, Bed Bath and Beyond delisted in May 2023.\n\nMore recently, donut icon Krispy Kreme was the subject of a meme stock-inspired rally. On the first day of its rally (23 July 2025), Krispy Kreme [shares soared 27%.](https://www.marketwatch.com/story/krispy-kreme-joins-the-meme-stock-party-tech-and-crypto-strength-may-be-fueling-the-wave-analyst-says-f247d712) Less than two weeks later (7 August 2025), a combination of a disappointing earnings report and news of the end of its partnership with McDonald’s, led to shares falling back to its pre-meme stock rally levels.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/DNUT-1400x836.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.\n\nThis meme mania has even affected ETFs in the past. In late 2021, the MEME ETF was launched by Roundhill Investments. It tracked the performance of stocks that had elevated social media activity and high interest from short sellers. The ETF closed less than two years later because of, ironically, too little trading volume and investor interest.\n\nIt’s worth clarifying that not all meme stocks end in disaster – but often, these stories play out like Bed Bath & Beyond and Krispy Kreme.\n\nWhat building long-lasting wealth takes\n---------------------------------------\n\nThe meme stock phenomenon shows that ‘getting rich quick’ is both hard to pull off. In most cases, far less rewarding than building wealth sustainably over time. There’s a reason that compounding – not meme investing – has been dubbed the eighth wonder of the world.\n\nIt’s also a great case in behavioural finance. Emotions play a key role in many of life’s decisions. But in investing, recognising your biases and learning how to manage them is one of the most powerful skills you can develop. To learn about some common investment biases, you can see a list of [five of them here](https://www.betashares.com.au/education/is-your-investing-influenced-by-emotion/).\n\n### So, what can you learn from all this? Here are five tips to being a better investor:\n\n*   Have a plan, and set a clear goal you’re confident you can stick to\n*   Contribute regularly through Auto-invest so your emotions have less influence on your decisions\n*   Diversify your portfolio across a range of asset classes and investments\n*   Avoid checking your performance every hour of every day\n*   Use reputable sources and research your investments.\n\nBest of all, you don’t need a fortune to action any of these tips; just consistency and the ability to separate the signals from the noise.\n\nSources:\n\n1\\.

week in review\n---------------------\n\nGlobal markets were fairly subdued last week, with the S&P 500 edging down 0.1%. Trump’s battle with the Fed was a focus of attention, while Friday’s key US inflation report was in line with expectations. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/chart1.png)\n------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nLimits of power \n----------------\n\nThe checks and balances of the US political system remained under stress last week, with US President Trump seeking to sack Fed Governor Lisa Cook and a US court ruling many of the President’s [tariff hikes illegal](https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-08-30/trump-tariffs-illegal/105715692). Market reactions have remained contained to date as both matters are still winding their way through the judicial process. For now, Fed Governor Cook remains in place, and so do Trump’s tariffs.\n\nSticky inflation, easing economic growth \n-----------------------------------------\n\nIn terms of economic data, annualised Q2 US GDP growth was revised modestly higher from 3.1% to 3.3%, with growth in consumer spending revised up from 1.4% to a still subdued 1.6%. The solid GDP gain was partly payback from the 0.5% annualised decline in Q1 GDP. Looking through the quarterly volatility caused by the surge and decline in imports ahead of Trump’s tariffs, overall US economic growth still appears to have shifted down a gear in H1 2025. \n\nMost important last week, however, was the July consumer inflation report. Core prices rose 0.3% – in line with expectations – causing annual core inflation to edge up from 2.8% to 2.9%. Markets still assign a high probability of a September rate cut, on the Fed’s apparent view that the labour market is softening. We’ll clearly learn more when the August payrolls report is released this Friday.   \n\nGlobal week ahead: August payrolls\n----------------------------------\n\nAs noted above, Friday’s US payrolls report will be critical to the Fed outlook. A strong employment bounce back of more than 200k or so would pour cold water over the idea that the labour market is weakening, and make the Fed look foolish (or politically compromised) if it went ahead with a rate cut this month. \n\nAs it stands, however, markets anticipate an employment gain of only 74k – broadly in line with the 73k gain in July – with the unemployment rate expected to edge up from 4.2% to 4.3%. Such a result would likely be weak enough to keep prospects for a rate cut this month alive and well. It could be a case of ‘bad news is good news’ for markets this week.\n\nAlso of note this week will be the ISM reports for manufacturing and services, both should still show the US economy holding up well despite suffering from a pipeline of pricing pressures.\n\nGlobal share market trends\n--------------------------\n\nIt’s only tentative so far, but the US/technology/growth/large cap outperformance trend since early April has come off the boil a little in recent weeks. In its place has been a resumption of Japanese outperformance and even early signs of a bounce in small-cap performance. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/chart2.png)\n------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nAustralian week in review\n-------------------------\n\nThe key highlight last week was the disappointing [July monthly CPI report](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/cpi-crushes-cut-hopes/), with trimmed mean annual inflation leaping from a benign 2.1% to a less pleasing 2.7%. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/chart3.png)\n\nWhile the RBA will see another monthly CPI report on 24 September – ahead of its next meeting over September 29-30 – the ongoing volatility in the monthly inflation reports will make it hard for the RBA to cut rates again this month, barring a major local/global growth scare. Markets currently attach only a 30% chance of a rate cut this month.\n\nMy base case remains the next rate cut will come in November, on Melbourne Cup day, assuming the Q3 CPI report shows annual trimmed mean inflation no more than 2.6% (from 2.7% in Q2).\n\nAlthough inflation has eased nicely over the past year, one lingering concern is the degree to which government cost-of-living support measures in areas such as electricity have indirectly biased down underlying inflation measures. \n\nAfter all, although underlying measures of inflation such as the trimmed mean strip out the most volatile price movements (such as electricity prices over the past year) large changes in the prices of certain items can indirectly influence underlying inflation estimates as they can shift the central point of the distribution of prices changes among remaining items. For example, a sharp drop in electricity prices can cause CPI items that usually have low price increases – typically excluded from trimmed mean calculations – to be included. As such, this can indirectly drag down trimmed mean CPI estimates. The same effect works in reverse when electricity prices rise strongly.\n\n> **Therefore, it is possible the decline in underlying inflation may not have been as significant as we’ve been led to believe!**\n\nLast week also saw the end of the Australian full-year reporting season. While individual company reports were mixed as usual, the past saw month saw the expected decline in S&P/ASX 200 FY25 earnings increase to -1.7% (from -0.6%). This largely reflects further downgrades in the materials (mining) sector. The market anticipates a 4.5% bounce back in market earnings in FY26 (again, largely thanks to a rebound in mining profits), although earnings estimates still remain under downward pressure.  \n\nAustralian week ahead\n---------------------\n\nThe local highlight this week will be Q2 GDP on Wednesday.\n\nMarkets anticipate a modest 0.5% gain in GDP, following a 0.2% gain in Q1, suggesting Australia’s economic recovery remains very gradual after an encouraging 0.6% lift in Q4 GDP last year. \n\nWhy? Overall consumer spending remains subdued, while there’s been a step down in previously robust public demand, with private investment and housing construction not as yet picking up much of the slack.\n\nA very weak Q2 GDP report could heighten expectations for an RBA rate cut this month, but the RBA would still likely feel under pressure to wait  for confirmation of benign inflation with the Q3 CPI report in late October. \n\nAustralian share market trends\n------------------------------\n\nIn terms of local equity trends, tentative signs of a rotation from financial to resource stocks remain in place, with markets perhaps feeling the worst could be over for earnings downgrades in the latter sector. There was also a notable bounce in small-cap performance last week!\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/chart4.png)\n\n**Have a great week!**\n----------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2151,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1629,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

week in review\n---------------------\n\nGlobal equities inched higher last week, with early concerns over US Fed and Trump policies washed away by a dovish Fed pivot on Friday.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/chart1-2.png)\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nFed’s change of heart\n---------------------\n\nIt was a strange week for Fed watchers. Early in the week markets were dismayed by minutes from the recent US Fed meeting which suggested most around the table were still more concerned with upside risks to inflation than downside risks to growth. Some of the evident slowdown in employment growth, for example, was blamed on slowing immigration (labour supply) given the unemployment rate had held steady.\n\nAdding to market concerns earlier in the week were new moves by the Trump administration to have tech companies pay 15% of revenues from chip sales to China. It sent a shudder through the tech sector as it opened up a whole new Pandora’s box of regulatory risk. Who’s next?\n\nOther US data were robust, with a solid rebound in the S&P US Manufacturing Index and a still-solid services sector survey. This only dampened hopes for a September US rate cut. \n\nBy Friday, however, markets rebounded strongly following Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s Damascus conversion (dramatic transformation) to a policy dove. Powell noted the July payrolls report – which, notably, was not available at the time of the last Fed meeting – revealed large downward revisions to employment growth for May and June (so much so that the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics was fired by Trump). Powell went on to suggest “downside risks to employment are rising” and later added “with policy in restrictive territory, the baseline outlook and the shifting balance of risks may warrant adjusting our policy stance.”\n\nCrack open the champagne! Powell seems to have all but guaranteed a September rate cut, with markets now seeing it as a 90% chance. US stocks leapt 1.5% higher on Friday, resulting in an overall 0.3% gain for the week and yet another record high.    \n\nOf course, we get another payrolls report before the next Fed meeting over September 16-17 – and if employment surges big time, it might upset markets’ hopes for a rate cut. And if the Fed does not cut, it will certainly incur the wrath of Trump. Will the Fed bend to his will? We have a fascinating few weeks ahead.  \n\nNZ cuts rates – but it might not be enough!\n-------------------------------------------\n\nOver in New Zealand, the RBNZ cut rates by 0.25% to 3% – as widely expected. With inflation back in the target band and the economy still soft, the Bank did canvass the possibility of a 0.5% cut but ultimately backed off.\n\nIn my view, the RBNZ could have cut by more and provided the still-moribund economy with some welcome shock therapy. \n\nGlobal week ahead: PCED inflation report\n----------------------------------------\n\nIn a data-light week, a key highlight will be Friday’s US private consumption expenditure deflator (PCED) inflation report. Price data from the CPI and PPI reports suggest another firm 0.3% gain will be seen in core PCED prices, which would lift annual inflation from 2.8% to 2.9%.  This is still much higher than the Fed’s 2% target and underlying annual inflation on this measure has been going sideways for a year – hardly a recipe for rate cuts!\n\nThat said, a 0.3% core monthly price gain would still suggest tariff effects remain relatively muted. And with the Fed expressing newfound concern over the labour market, the market does not care about inflation that remains uncomfortably high – as long as it’s not surging higher.     \n\nGlobal share market trends\n--------------------------\n\nAs has been noted here previously, the US/technology/growth/large cap outperformance trend appears to have largely resumed with the market rebounding since early April. But Trump’s new levy on chip sales hurt technology and growth stocks last week. \n\nJapan’s relative performance has also picked up of late, with the Nikkei 225 reaching record highs. Although Japan’s market did correct a little last week, it should enjoy a catch-up rally today – along with Asia generally – given Wall Street’s bounce on Friday.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/chart2-2.png)\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nAustralian week in review\n-------------------------\n\nThere was not much on the local data front last week, although we did get a nice 5.7% bounce in the Westpac/Melbourne Institute measure of consumer sentiment following the RBA’s August rate cut. Sentiment is now almost back at its long-run average, which should hopefully encourage a bit more consumer spending in the months ahead. \n\nThere was also the Productivity talkfest in Canberra. There were a range of modest deregulatory moves announced following the forum – with most low hanging fruit being overdue streamlining of regulations. While most participants agreed the young were taxed more heavily than the elderly/retired, there was little agreement on what should be done about it. I won’t hold my breath waiting for major tax reform – for the reasons I outlined [last week](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/waiting-for-impact/).\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/chart3-2.png)\n\nAustralian week ahead\n---------------------\n\nThere are a few interesting points of local interest this week. Tomorrow, the minutes from the most recent RBA meeting will be released, while on Wednesday we have the July monthly CPI report. After a large drop to 2.1% in June, some bounce back in annual trimmed mean monthly inflation seems likely – but not by enough to upset hopes for more rate cuts. \n\nBuilding blocks to the Q2 GDP report will also trickle in with building construction on Wednesday and private capital spending on Thursday. Both building construction and private investment should bounce back a little in Q2 after flat Q1 outcomes which bodes well for a firmer Q2 GDP report. Most encouraging are signs of an ongoing lift in dwelling construction.   \n\nAustralian share market trends\n------------------------------\n\nIn terms of local equity trends, the recent rotation from financial to resource stocks was interrupted last week with the former performing more strongly. The relative performance of quality continues to trend higher, with some levelling out in the relative performance of technology of late.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/chart4-2.png)\n\n**Have a great week!**\n----------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2145,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1617,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

week in review\n---------------------\n\nAnd so we wait. Global equities pushed higher last week, with a key US inflation report still failing to show much impact from higher tariffs.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/chart1-1.png)\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nMissing in action: inflationary tariff effects\n----------------------------------------------\n\nGlobal equities continue to be buoyed by two factors: a modest softening in the US labour market and the ongoing absence of major tariff effects in US inflation, both of which have raised hopes for a September Fed rate cut.\n\nLast week’s US July CPI report was as expected, with headline and core prices rising 0.2% and 0.3% respectively. At 3.1%, annual core CPI inflation is still higher than the Fed would like, and core services inflation remains especially sticky, lifting 0.4% in the month and 3.6% over the year. Markets, however, latched onto the fact that core goods prices rose only 0.2% and a modest 1.2% over the year. Dig deep enough and some tariff effects will surely be found in certain items. But overall, US goods inflation remains remarkably benign. \n\nOf course, it could just be a question of lags. Later in the week, US stocks were briefly rocked by a higher-than-expected 0.9% gain in both headline and core producer (wholesale) prices. These are the prices that businesses charge each other for intermediate goods and services along the supply chain before the final products are on sold to consumers. Core goods wholesale prices rose 0.4% while services were again stronger, up 1.1%. \n\nAlso of note last week, US weekly jobless claims remained low – providing some reassurance that the labour market is not slowing too abruptly despite recent soft employment gains.  \n\nUS Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was so pleased with the inflation outlook he suggested last week that most “Fed models” would have the Fed fund rates [1.5-1.75% lower by now](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llvgeb4pXO8&pp=ygUcc2NvdHQgYmVzc2VudCBmZWQgZnVuZHMgcmF0ZQ%3D%3D). Exactly which models he was referring to mystified most economists – with core inflation around 3% and the unemployment rate just over 4%, if anything the Fed funds rate should arguably be higher not lower.    \n\nGlobal week ahead: FOMC minutes\n-------------------------------\n\nThere’s little major global data of note this week, with most focus likely to be on the minutes of the recent Fed meeting. Markets will watch how inclined Fed members will be to cut rates at the upcoming September meeting.\n\nIn New Zealand, the Reserve Bank is widely expected to cut the cash rate further to 3% on Wednesday, in light of inflation being back at target and a still-weak labour market.  \n\nGlobal share market trends\n--------------------------\n\nAs has been noted here previously, the US/technology/growth/large cap outperformance trend appears to have largely resumed with the market rebounding since early April.\n\nThat said, Japan’s relative performance has picked up of late, with the Nikkei 225 reaching record highs last week. The return of modest price and wage inflation, and improved corporate focus on shareholder returns, are helping to propel Japanese stocks higher.    \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/chart2-1.png)\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nAustralian week in review\n-------------------------\n\nThe major highlight was the RBA’s widely expected decision to cut interest rates. However, one surprise was the relatively dovish commentary and forecasts, which left markets happily still predicting more rate cuts over coming months. That said, the market is only attaching a 30% chance to a September rate cut. Like myself, expectations are more focused on the possibility of a November rate cut, following the Q3 CPI report in late October.   \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/chart3-1.png)\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nOther local news last week was generally supportive of further rate cuts, albeit without the urgency to suggest a September cut.\n\nThe Q2 wage price index was as expected, lifting 0.8% and keeping annual growth steady at a relatively benign 3.4%.\n\nEmployment growth also bounced back by a largely expected 25k in July, with the unemployment rate easing back to 4.2% from 4.3%. Looking beyond the monthly volatility, employment growth has clearly eased of late, though the slow down remains relatively modest. \n\nAustralian week ahead\n---------------------\n\nAs is the case globally, there’s not much on the local data front this week, except the Westpac/Melbourne Institute measure of consumer sentiment. Sentiment should likely bounce given the RBA’s rate cut, which should hopefully encourage a bit more consumer spending in the months ahead. \n\nOf course, there’s also the Productivity talkfest in Canberra this week. I won’t hold my breath expecting much to emerge – especially on tax. As it stands in Australia, no Federal Government feels it can launch major tax changes these days without an electoral mandate. Yet, no Government or Opposition wants to risk taking major tax changes into the heat of an election campaign following Bill Shorten’s ill-fated gamble at being a “big target” in 2019. \n\nAustralian share market trends\n------------------------------\n\nIn terms of local equity trends, the rotation from financial to resource stocks in the large cap space continued last week – suggesting it could have legs! There’s also an ongoing bounce in (admittedly volatile) small cap performance. The relative performance of quality and technology continues to trend higher, although the latter had a pullback last week.    \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/chart4-1.png)\n\n**Have a great week!**\n----------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2128,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1601,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

equities bounced back last week despite another weak US economic report, as investors ‘bought the dip’ following the previous week’s sell-off. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/chart1.png)\n------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nMarkets place faith in Fed and Trump put \n-----------------------------------------\n\nAlthough the knee-jerk reaction to the previous Friday’s weak US employment report was to sell equities, investors were keen to buy the dip come Monday morning. Helping support stocks last week were dovish comments from various voting Fed members, who expressed some concern over the weak payrolls report and talked up the prospect of rate cuts. Markets are now attaching an 88% chance to a September Fed rate cut.\n\nEquities did briefly weaken last week in the face of a softer-than-expected US ISM Services PMI report. The headline services index came in at 50.1, from 50.8 and below the market expectation of a bounce to 51.5. The details were even worse, with the employment index falling further to 46.4 while the prices paid index leapt to 69.9.\n\n> _This highlights the fact that the effects of tariffs are coming through and the near-term result will look stagflationary (weaker growth and higher inflation) due to the significant increases in import taxes._ \n\nThat said, the market’s ongoing resilience to tariff concerns seems to have emboldened President Trump. Last week he announced tariffs on India would rise to 50% (due to its large purchases of Russian oil) – even though the US continues to import significant volumes from Russia at the same time. He also flagged higher tariffs on drugs and computer chips could come sometime soon. Markets did take kindly to Apple’s announcement that it would [invest another US$100 billion in the US](https://www.reuters.com/business/retail-consumer/trump-announces-100-billion-new-investment-pledge-apple-2025-08-06/), on top of the US$500 billion promised earlier this year.\n\nUltimately, with tariff effects still only trickling into US hard economic data, markets continue to place faith in the Fed cutting rates to help the economy if need be. Markets also remain hopeful that Trump might “chicken out” on his aggressive tariff campaign if the economic data turns a lot worse. The problem is that the data will need to weaken significantly before the TACO trade comes back into effect.    \n\nGlobal week ahead: US July CPI \n-------------------------------\n\nWe’ll likely get more evidence of tariff effects coming through this week with the US July consumer price index (CPI) report on Tuesday (US time). Core prices are expected to lift 0.3%, which would push up annual core inflation to 3.0%.\n\nThis is still much too high for the Fed to justify cutting interest rates anytime soon, even if the labour market appears to be weakening and some Fed members are angling to win Trump’s favour.  \n\nGlobal sharemarket trends\n-------------------------\n\nAs has been noted here previously, the US/technology/growth/large cap outperformance trend appears to have largely resumed with the market rebounding since early April. \n\nEurope/Australia/value has underperformed over this period, whereas Japan and Small Cap relative performance has tracked sideways. Of some note, emerging markets have given back only part of their outperformance from earlier this year and have been holding up reasonably well since early June. This has likely been helped by persistent weakness in the US dollar in recent months despite the rebound in US equity outperformance.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/chart3.png)\n------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nAustralian week in review\n-------------------------\n\nThere was little major local economic data last week, although the ANZ-Indeed Jobs Ads Index dipped a reassuringly small 1% in July to remain in the broad sideways range that has been evident since mid-2024. This provides a counterpoint to concerns of major labour market weakening evident from the past two official employment reports.\n\nAustralian week ahead\n---------------------\n\nWe’ll get an update on the employment situation with the July employment report on Thursday. Markets anticipate a 25k bounce in employment as a counter to the previous two weak monthly reports, which would see the unemployment rate dip back to 4.2% from 4.3%. Such a result would suggest the labour market is gradually easing.   \n\nOf course, the local highlight this week will be tomorrow’s RBA August policy meeting. Markets – and myself – are fairly convinced the RBA will cut interest rates by 25 basis points to 3.6%. My base case remains that the RBA is in no hurry to cut rates and the follow-up rate cut – barring a major growth scare – won’t come until November. \n\nAustralian sharemarket trends\n-----------------------------\n\nIn terms of local equity trends, a partial unwinding of financial sector outperformance has been evident since late June, coinciding with a bottoming out of resource sector underperformance and a bounce in (admittedly volatile) small cap performance. Quality and technology stocks continue to perform well.   \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/chart4.png)\n\n**Have a great week!**\n----------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2045,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1560,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

inflation subsides and rate cuts begin, Australia has entered the new financial year with cautious optimism – but household spending remains the key swing factor.**\n\nKey Points\n----------\n\n*   Inflation is easing and interest rates are falling, setting the stage for a gradual economic recovery.\n*   Consumer spending remains subdued, despite stronger household incomes and a resilient labour market led by care services.\n*   A housing recovery and ongoing investment in green energy and exports could support growth through FY’26.\n\nWith the post-COVID surge in inflation almost completely unwound and the Reserve Bank gradually taking its foot off the interest rate brake, the outlook for the Australian economy heading into the new financial year is one of cautious optimism.\n\nOf course, there are risks – particularly with a feisty new US President seeking to reshape global trading and security arrangements to his liking.\n\nThe key to the domestic economic outlook, however, is the behaviour of households.\n\nConsumer spending initially burst back strongly as COVID-related restrictions eased. But in more recent years, household spending has slowed to a crawl, not helped by a significant decline in real income from 2021 to 2023 due to higher inflation, higher interest rates and the long-term effects of income tax bracket creep.\n\nEven more surprising, household spending has remained weak even as household income began to recover from late 2023, with a large chunk of the extra income saved rather than spent. Even a strong rebound in immigration has not lifted overall consumer spending, with more people around to spend being largely offset by a decline in per-capita spending.\n\nAll up, in the March quarter consumer spending grew by only 0.4.%, to be up a measly 0.7% over the year. High interest rates – courtesy of the Reserve Bank – and lingering fears of a recession have kept household purses shut.\n\nConsumers cautious, care sector growing\n---------------------------------------\n\nAll that said, with inflation falling and the Reserve Bank shifting to an easing policy bias, there’s light at the end of the tunnel for downtrodden consumers.\n\nAnnual underlying inflation – as estimated by the trimmed mean measure – has eased from a high of 6.8% in the December quarter of 2022 to 2.9% by the March quarter of this year.\n\n![A graph with red line and numbers\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/a-graph-with-red-line-and-numbers-ai-generated-co.png)\n\nThe Reserve Bank expects underlying inflation to ease to 2.6% by mid-year and hold there over the next year or so. That’s close enough to the mid-point of the RBA’s 2-3% inflation target band to justify a lowering in official interest rates back to less restrictive levels.\n\nHaving lifted rates from 0.1% to 4.35% over 2022 and 2023, the RBA cut rates by 0.25% in both February and May this year. At 3.85%, the RBA cash rate can still be considered restrictive – but less than it was – and markets expect a gradual easing to just under 3% by early 2026. That would leave rates broadly neutral; neither overly restrictive nor expansionary.\n\nThe weakness in economic activity, however, especially in consumer spending, has not stopped continued strong gains in the labour market. Helped by strong growth in the care sector, covering everything from health care, childcare and disability to aged care, employment growth has remained firm and unemployment low at around 4%.\n\n![A graph showing a line graph\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/a-graph-showing-a-line-graph-ai-generated-content.png)\n\nIn an ideal world, the Reserve Bank would welcome a lift in GDP growth, driven by higher consumer spending, although with some moderation in employment growth so that the level of unemployment drifts up closer to 4.5% – a level the RBA feels is more consistent with low and stable wage growth and price inflation over time. That might come about if Australia’s current abysmal rate of productivity growth, or growth in economic output per worker, improves back towards more normal long-run average levels.\n\nBut with the growth in the care sector seemingly unstoppable, where productivity growth tends to be low, I won’t hold my breath for a productivity rebound any time soon. The lack of any productivity-enhancing incentives or competition policy reforms from state and federal governments is also not encouraging.\n\nTherefore, if consumer spending does recover, it seems even more likely that employment growth will remain firm and unemployment low. Thankfully, however, and contrary to RBA fears, today’s low level of unemployment has not stopped an easing in price and wage inflation in recent years, suggesting the sustainable level of unemployment may be nearer to current levels than the 4.5% long desired by the RBA.\n\nHousing recovery, green energy and exports poised for growth\n------------------------------------------------------------\n\nBeyond consumer spending, there are good grounds to expect a stronger recovery in housing construction.\n\nDespite housing shortages, a drain on skilled tradespeople combined with a boom in infrastructure projects has constrained the supply of new housing in recent years, while high interest rates, poor affordability and weak household income have constrained demand. With many infrastructure projects now winding down, and affordability improved by lower interest rates, housing construction is well placed to recover.\n\nBoth public demand and private business investment are expected to remain firm, although moderate somewhat as drivers of economic growth. Given the needs of the green energy transition and growth in online shopping and data storage, ongoing private investment in renewable energy projects, warehouses and data centres will be required. Ongoing growth in health, education and social services will also continue to underpin public demand, despite some efforts to reign in government budget deficits.\n\nThat leaves exports, where growth is expected to remain positive but subdued as the influx of foreign students and tourists continues to level out following their strong post-COVID rebound. Weakness in China’s once red-hot property sector, and occasional weather-related local supply disruptions, are also constraining growth in coal and iron-ore exports.\n\nRisks to the outlook: Upsides and downsides\n-------------------------------------------\n\nWhile there are both upside and downside risks to the economic outlook, they appear mainly skewed to the downside. The main upside risks are a strong home price and consumer spending rebound as the RBA continues to lower rates. But lingering consumer caution – particularly given the global outlook – and already poor housing affordability should constrain these risks.\n\nMeanwhile, the major downside risk is a deterioration in the global economic environment should higher US tariffs lead to a tit-for-tat trade war.\n\nAt this stage, markets are placing great hope on the ‘TACO’ trade, or the belief that ‘Trump Always Chickens Out’. While talking tough, the hope is the US President will ultimately pull back from draconian tariff increases – an inflationary tax on imports – if that risks pushing the US economy into recession, as this could in turn cost the Republican party in next year’s mid-term Congressional elections.","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2079,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1578,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

this two-part series, we uncover a hidden gem of the stock investing world – royalty companies. Benefitting from unique business model’s and investment characteristics, royalty companies can play a meaningful role in investor portfolios._\n\n_In part one, we look at the unique business models of successful royalty companies across the energy, mining and healthcare sectors._\n\n_In part two, we will delve into the investment characteristics of royalty companies and how they can fit into investor portfolios._\n\nIn an environment increasingly shaped by geopolitical tensions, tariff uncertainty, and inflationary pressures, as well as a stock market saturated with tech giants, cyclical industries and speculative startups, royalty companies can offer a refreshing alternative.\n\nRoyalty companies are often considered resilient, capital-efficient businesses that can help to meet the diversification needs of today’s portfolios.\n\nUnlike traditional operators, royalty companies don’t build, mine or manufacturer. Instead they own the rights to revenue streams from a wide range of industries and can benefit from rising sales without bearing the operational risk or rising input costs which stems from the goods and services their revenues are derived from.\n\nThis business model allows royalty companies to:\n\n*   Avoid capital-intensive operations\n*   Achieve higher margins\n*   Diversify income streams across geographies and within industries without the requirement to expand internal resources\n*   Benefit from revenue growth while remaining insulated from the direct operational risks of manufacturing, mining or distribution as well as rising input costs\n\nInside royalty companies: Stories behind the sectors\n----------------------------------------------------\n\nThree company examples that embody some of these unique benefits are Texas Pacific Land Corp, Franco Nevada, and Genmab A/S.\n\n### **Oil & Gas –** Energy and land requirements for artificial intelligence\n\n**Texas Pacific Land Corp (TPL)**\n\nAs global energy demand continues to surge, driven by data centre expansion, electrification and industry growth, securing stable, scalable energy sources has become a strategic priority.\n\nThe Stargate project, a joint venture lead by the likes of OpenAI, Softbank and Oracle is a landmark $500 billion initiative launched in January 2025 to build out-next generation AI infrastructure across the United States. Within this context Texas is rapidly positioning itself as a global hub for AI infrastructure due to its abundant energy resources, land availability and a supportive regulatory environment.\n\nHow does TPL fit within all of this?\n\nTPL owns vast swaths of land in West Texas and earns royalties from oil and gas extracted on its property. It’s one of the most unique land-based royalty models combining real estate and energy exposure. However, it doesn’t pump oil and gas. Instead, it earns royalties from others that do, making it one of the most capital efficient and high margin businesses in the energy complex achieving a net income margin of over 64% in 2024¹.\n\nIn 2025, TPL is writing a bold new chapter, positioning itself at the heart of the AI infrastructure revolution, confirming it is actively pursuing opportunities to lease land for AI data centre hosting. It has already expanded into digital infrastructure leveraging its vast land holdings and energy access to support Bitcoin mining and renewable energy projects.\n\nThis new chapter seeks to future-proof income generation and diversify its revenue streams from old to new economy with minimal operational risk.\n\n### **Gold** – without the digging\n\n**Franco-Nevada (FNV)**\n\nInstead of mining gold, Franco-Nevada finances mining operations in exchange for a percentage of future production. This royalty business model allows it to maintain a lean structure while benefiting from commodity price upside and production growth across a diversified portfolio of income generating assets.\n\nA standout example was in 1986, FNV invested $2m to acquire a 4% royalty interest in Goldstrike mine which at the time had an estimated 600,000 ounces of gold reserves. 3 years later, a massive discovery expanded the reserves to 20m ounces, transforming the mine into one of the largest and most profitable gold mines in the world. Over its lifetime, Goldstrike produced more than 44m ounces of gold netting over $1B in revenue for FNV translating to a 500x return on its initial $2m investment.\n\nToday FNV is the most diversified royalty company in its sector with over 120 income producing royalty and streaming assets earning over $1Billion USD annually with a net income margin of circa 50% while remaining debt free².\n\n### **Biotech** – Engineering tomorrow’s cancer breakthroughs\n\n**Genmab A/S**\n\nGenmab is a Danish biotechnology company redefining cancer treatment with a focus on antibody-based therapies that target tumours. From multiple myeloma to cervical and ovarian cancers, Genmab’s pipeline is packed with breakthroughs like Epcoritamab and Tivdak, offering new hope where options were limited.\n\nBy focusing on R&D and antibody innovation, Genmab avoids operational risk through a business model that is deliberately structured to be capital light, partnership driven and focussed on innovation rather than infrastructure.\n\nBy partnering with biotech giants like Johnson & Johnson, AbbVie and Novartis who handle manufacturing, regulatory approvals and global distribution. These alliances allow Genmab to license its key assets like blockbuster drug DARZALEX, which has become a cornerstone in the blood cancer treatment and a royalty engine for Genmab receiving up to 20% of sales which is estimated to net Genmab around $500m USD in revenues for Q1 2025³.\n\nHow can you gain access to royalty streams?\n-------------------------------------------\n\nTraditionally, royalty investments were opaque and within the domain of private capital and sophisticated investors who were attracted to their high cash flows, low operational risk and upside participation in the growth of the underlying businesses.\n\nBetashares Global Royalties ETF (ASX: ROYL), launched in 2022, was the world’s first ETF to offer a strategy focused purely on royalty companies.\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2089,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":216,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":419,"show_chart":true,"asset":{"data":{"id":53,"attributes":{"symbol":"ROYL","name":"Global Royalties ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Earn attractive monthly income from global royalty companies","description_long":null,"fee":0.69,"createdAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.749Z","updatedAt":"2025-07-10T04:01:39.744Z","publishedAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.748Z","symbol_openfigi":null,"tags":{"data":[{"id":1,"attributes":{"tag":"income","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:06:02.686Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.669Z","mutations":"yield,passive-income"}},{"id":59,"attributes":{"tag":"entertainment","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:33.760Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:33.760Z","mutations":"media"}},{"id":64,"attributes":{"tag":"commodities","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:34.213Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:08.675Z","mutations":null}},{"id":107,"attributes":{"tag":"canada","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.077Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:24.131Z","mutations":null}},{"id":124,"attributes":{"tag":"dividend","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.899Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.899Z","mutations":"distribution,equity-income,monthly-income"}},{"id":127,"attributes":{"tag":"gold","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.951Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T07:12:47.821Z","mutations":"bullion,vault,bgl"}},{"id":267,"attributes":{"tag":"roya","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:19.432Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:08.690Z","mutations":null}}]}}}}}]},{"id":2090,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":1583,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"ROYL provides investors with a liquid and listed exposure to pure play global royalty companies spanning multiple sectors including mining, energy, music, pharmaceuticals and technology.

A long track record of uninterrupted dividends, particularly through times of earnings stress or economic downturns, reflects management’s commitment to shareholders and the underlying financial quality of the business. Investors often view such consistency as a sign of corporate maturity, capital discipline, and balance sheet strength.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Picture2-1-1400x934.png)\n\nSource: S&P, Bloomberg. As at 31 July 2025.\n\nBy not limiting itself to purely selecting the highest yielding companies, which are often in low growth sectors of the market, INCM’s Index is designed to provide investors with a return profile that captures both income and growth potential.\n\nFor example, **BAE Systems (LON: BA)**, a global defence and aerospace leader, has delivered strong earnings growth of 8.3% p.a. over the past five years, supporting consistent dividend growth of 6.85% p.a. and over the longer term boasts a 20-year dividend growth streak¹. Similarly, **The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE: KO)** has increased its dividend for 61 consecutive years. Backed by strong brand equity and a globally diversified product base, Coca-Cola has delivered earnings growth of 6.9% p.a. and an average dividend yield of 3.0% over the past five years².\n\nTo further seek companies with high quality income characteristics, and to avoid dividend traps, the Index methodology requires companies to have had a non-negative dividend payout ratio for the past 10 years (i.e. 10 years of positive earnings) and a maximum of 10% forecast dividend yield.\n\nCapturing global growth\n-----------------------\n\nWith a universe of eligible dividend aristocrats, INCM’s index then looks to improve on the shortcomings of many existing global income indices in historically failing to capture the growth in international equity market returns.\n\nTo overcome significant sector and region deviations, INCM’s Index groups eligible dividend aristocrats into three related regional groups and four related sector groups³, matching the weights of these groups at each rebalance to a broad global benchmark⁴.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Picture1-1-1400x934.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. As at 31 July 2025. INCM’s Index is the S&P World Ex-Australia High Yield Dividend Aristocrats Select Index. Example traditional global equity income index is used for illustrative purposes only to show typical sector and regional active positions and returns of unconstrained global equity income indices. Regional groups: North America, Asia Pacific, and Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Sector groups: 1 – Financial and Real Estate, 2 – Consumer and Healthcare, 3 – Technology and communications, and 4 – Industrials, Materials, Energy, and Utilities.\n\nIn doing so, INCM’s Index avoids taking significant active positions by related sector or region. For example, INCM’s index would have avoided the heavy overweight in Real Estate and utilities and corresponding underweights in Technology-related sectors in the US, due to their relative income profiles over the past decade.\n\nThese active weights can be typical of traditional income indices and have led many to significant underperformance versus broad global benchmarks. For instance, the index in the example below has lagged the MSCI World ex Australia Index by 122% over the past 10 years with analysis showing that just over half was due to active sector and regional weights.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Picture3-1400x934.png)\n\nSource: Morningstar Direct. July 2015 to July 2025. index of example traditional global equity income strategy is used for illustrative purposes only to show typical sector and regional active positions and returns of unconstrained global equity income indices. Past performance is not indicative of future performance of any index or ETF.\n\nA better balance between income and growth\n------------------------------------------\n\nINCM’s index has historically displayed the defensive characteristics one would expect from a high yield strategy. Since common inception (31 January 2019), compared to the MSCI World ex Australia Index the Index has had lower volatility, lower drawdowns in both 2020 and 2022, and a beta of 0.83⁵.\n\nWhile not participating in the full upside of the market, which has been largely driven by a small number of mega-cap US technology stocks over the period, INCM has protected on the downside achieving a capture ratio of 1.1⁶ (upside capture divided by downside capture).\n\nOver the same period, compared to the index of an example traditional global equity income strategy, INCM’s Index has achieved higher total returns with almost half of the tracking error to the broader market.\n\nThis historical performance of INCM’s Index against traditional unconstrained global equity income indices highlights its more considered approach to balancing income and capturing the growth of market returns.\n\nAnd while INCM’s Index has not outperformed the MSCI World ex Australia in absolute terms – very few funds have over this period – its balance between income, growth and defensive qualities have led to comparable risk adjusted return profile since index inception.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Picture7-2-1400x831.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. 31 January 2019 to 30 July 2025. Depicts index performance and does not include INCM’s management fees of 0.39% p.a. INCM’s Index is the S&P World Ex-Australia High Dividend Aristocrats Select Index. Index of example global equity income strategy used for illustrative purposes only to show returns of unconstrained global equity income indices. You cannot invest directly in an index. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance any index or ETF.\n\nCrucially, INCM’s index has achieved these return attributes with, on average, an index yield 60% higher than the MSCI World ex Australia. While this may not be as high as some traditional global equity income strategies, it may be considered a reasonable offset to achieve the other desirable properties of INCM’s return profile.\n\nInvestment implications\n-----------------------\n\nInternational equity income allocations have been a pain point for investors, often leaving them to either ignore the income potential from this sizeable part of their portfolios or suffer underperformance against broad global benchmarks.\n\nINCM now offers an alternative with the potential for high income and growth within international equities making it potentially appealing for:\n\n*   Investors looking to increase overall portfolio income, backed by an intuitive company selection approach\n*   Allocators seeking a benchmark aware building block for international equity income models\n*   Investors seeking defensive global equity exposure without sacrificing diversification, while balancing upside potential.\n\nWithin each of these applications INCM’s intuitive approach should both be easy for investors to understand and lead to more reliable return outcomes relative to broad global benchmarks.","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2076,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":2088,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":215,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":418,"show_chart":true,"asset":{"data":{"id":78,"attributes":{"symbol":"INCM","name":"Global Income Leaders ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Generate attractive income from a diversified portfolio of global shares","description_long":null,"fee":0.45,"createdAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.941Z","updatedAt":"2025-07-10T05:33:57.247Z","publishedAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.940Z","symbol_openfigi":null,"tags":{"data":[{"id":1,"attributes":{"tag":"income","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:06:02.686Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.669Z","mutations":"yield,passive-income"}},{"id":19,"attributes":{"tag":"finance","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-03-26T22:45:12.476Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.729Z","mutations":"financials"}},{"id":123,"attributes":{"tag":"communications","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.684Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.684Z","mutations":"telecom"}},{"id":124,"attributes":{"tag":"dividend","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.899Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.899Z","mutations":"distribution,equity-income,monthly-income"}},{"id":274,"attributes":{"tag":"vdif","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:21.484Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:10.342Z","mutations":null}},{"id":284,"attributes":{"tag":"vhy","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:22.842Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:10.660Z","mutations":null}},{"id":111,"attributes":{"tag":"utilities","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.488Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:22.953Z","mutations":null}},{"id":275,"attributes":{"tag":"wdiv","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:21.501Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:10.803Z","mutations":null}}]}}}}}]},{"id":1572,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Sources:\n\n1\\.

boasts one of the highest yielding share markets in the world, but the dividend yield on the ASX200 has fallen significantly and is now below 3.5% p.a.\n\nAside from the Covid dip, we haven’t had another time in the last 50 years where both the ASX dividend yield and RBA cash rate were below 4% at the same time.\n\nThis has massive implications for Australian investors, particularly those that rely on investment income.\n\nIn this article, we look at the opportunities and risks of investing for dividend income. We also introduce the [Betashares S&P Australian Shares High Yield ETF (ASX: HYLD)](https://direct.betashares.com.au/asset/AU/HYLD), which seeks to offer a higher yield than the broader market and can be used as an investor’s core Australian shares allocation.\n\nDividend sustainability called into question\n--------------------------------------------\n\nAustralia’s reputation as a high dividend-market rests heavily on the shoulders of the big banks and miners. Recently, this dependence has started to threaten the sustainability of the overall market dividend yield.\n\nOver the last two years, dividends at an index level have been falling as the earnings yield has taken a hit. For example, in February Rio Tinto announced its smallest dividend in seven years, after earnings fell due to both higher production costs and lower commodities prices. Macquarie’s dividends have fallen from their 2022/23 year high, while CBA’s dividend growth has not kept up with its stock price, resulting in an underwhelming dividend yield of 2.73% p.a.¹\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Historical-Earnings-and-Div-Yields-1400x829.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. May 2000 to July 2025. Dividend yield is cash yield before franking, based on trailing 12 months of dividends and the current index level at the time. **Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.**\n\nAs a result, the trailing cash dividend yield of the S&P/ASX 200 is currently 3.34% p.a. – a figure well below its long-run average.\n\nIf the broad Australian share market is no longer paying the sort of reliable high yield it used to, how can investors make up for that drop in dividend income today?\n\nOptions for earning more dividend income than the market\n--------------------------------------------------------\n\nOne option available to Australian investors is to select a portfolio of stocks that have historically paid high dividends, or more specifically have a high trailing yield². This method is relatively simple to implement, however it implicitly assumes that historical dividends are sustainable, and ignores the market signal provided by the stock price.\n\nAs a result, it can leave an investor exposed to ‘**dividend traps’** — situations where a company appears attractively priced on historical yield, but in fact future dividends are under threat due to earnings pressure, deteriorating fundamentals or cyclical downturns. Investors chasing yield in companies like **Lendlease (ASX: LLC)** or **The Star Entertainment Group (ASX: SGR)** over the past few years have seen both dividend cuts and capital erosion.\n\nAlternatively, investors may screen based on forecast future dividend yield, which uses analysts’ dividend estimates over the next 12 months. Many dividend focussed ETFs rely on forecast dividend yield to select stocks; and this approach, coupled with diversification across a large portfolio of individual names, can be effective.\n\nBut while this method provides a more refined view than looking for dividends in the rearview mirror, it introduces a greater reliance on analyst estimates, which may prove inaccurate — especially in sectors with earnings volatility (e.g. resources, cyclicals) or where there is not a deep pool of analysts providing coverage. Moreover, it doesn’t eliminate dividend trap risk entirely, as consensus forecasts may be slow to reflect a deterioration in fundamentals.\n\nA dividend ETF that goes the extra step\n---------------------------------------\n\n**Betashares S&P Australian Shares High Yield ETF (ASX: HYLD)** goes beyond just relying on analyst dividend forecasts, by also aiming to screen out potential ‘dividend traps.’\n\nHYLD aims to track the S&P/ASX 200 High Yield Select Index, providing diversified exposure to a portfolio of 50 of the highest-yielding Australian companies. This index utilises market-based signals seeking to screen out potential ‘dividend traps’ and stocks where the higher dividend income contribution comes with an unnecessary increase in volatility. More specifically:\n\n*   Stocks with a forecast dividend yield over 12% are excluded, as a very high dividend yield may be a signal of dividend sustainability risk.\n*   Stocks in the bottom 10% for price momentum are excluded – a falling share price may be a red flag which can help investors avoid ‘catching a falling knife’;\n*   The group of highest forecast yield stocks that pass these initial filters are re-ranked by forecast yield divided by volatility, with the bottom third removed, resulting in a portfolio of 50 companies.\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":2042,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":210,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":407,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":186,"attributes":{"symbol":"HYLD","name":"Betashares S&P Australian Shares High Yield ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Earn monthly income from a portfolio of high-yielding Australian companies","description_long":null,"fee":0.25,"createdAt":"2025-08-04T22:58:47.504Z","updatedAt":"2025-08-05T00:17:23.509Z","publishedAt":"2025-08-04T22:58:50.736Z","symbol_openfigi":"HYLD:AU","tags":{"data":[{"id":284,"attributes":{"tag":"vhy","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:22.842Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:10.660Z","mutations":null}},{"id":1,"attributes":{"tag":"income","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:06:02.686Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.669Z","mutations":"yield,passive-income"}},{"id":109,"attributes":{"tag":"australian","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.086Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.086Z","mutations":"aussie,australia"}}]}}}}}]},{"id":2043,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":1558,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Below are two historical examples of high yielding stocks that were screened out of HYLD’s Index at a time when they were retained within other Australian High Dividend Yield Indexes that rely on forward looking analyst dividend estimates.\n\n**Example 1:** AMP Limited (AMP) was excluded from HYLD’s Index in July 2018 based on the momentum screen.

Australia’s biggest consumer bank has also earned this title due to its lofty price-to-earnings (P/E) and price-to-book (P/B) ratios – both of which are well above those of global retail banking peers like Bank of America and TD Bank.²\n\nThese ratios are commonly used by investors to gauge how highly the market is valuing a company. In CBA’s case, the numbers suggest investors are willing to pay a premium.\n\nCBA’s milestone is, therefore, a reminder that buying any asset at stretched valuations, no matter its quality, can limit future returns.\n\nIt also reinforces the importance of working on a disciplined investing plan as opposed to chasing any asset at any price. But unless you have the time to value every single asset you want to buy, a more time and cost-efficient approach may be to dollar cost average into an ETF.\n\nDollar cost averaging means investing a set amount into chosen ETFs on a regular schedule, regardless of what the market is doing. It helps take the emotion out of investing and can be an easy way to stay consistent and grow wealth steadily. Dollar cost averaging into ETFs also helps investors avoid the risk of putting all your eggs into one basket – both in terms of timing and in terms of individual assets.\n\nLesson 2: Diversification matters – now more than ever\n------------------------------------------------------\n\nCBA’s milestone may also emphasise the importance of single stock/asset risk in an investor’s portfolio.\n\nData collated by UBS suggests that CBA is currently worth 11.8% of the entire ASX 200 by itself. This is only the fifth time in the last ~25 years that a single stock has been worth at least 10% of the entire Australian sharemarket³.\n\nIt also signifies what a huge potential liability CBA, as a single entity, has become. If its share price were to fall quickly and significantly, the entire local sharemarket would likely come down with it.\n\nThis speaks to two things: 1) that single stock risk is very real and that thoughtful diversification is a must for any smart investor and 2) one of the best ways to achieve this goal is through ETFs.\n\nTo achieve this, one ETF you could consider is Betashares Australian Quality ETF. Unlike traditional ETFs that weight holdings by market capitalisation, AQLT uses quality metrics. This means you get greater exposure to companies like Wesfarmers and Macquarie Group, and less to BHP and CBA. AQLT also includes high-quality mid and small-cap names such as Pro Medicus, Hub24 and Breville.\n\nBy spreading your investment across a range of quality companies, AQLT may help reduce the impact of poor performance from any single stock. It is important to understand, while diversification can help manage risk, it doesn’t guarantee returns or protect against losses.","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1998,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":205,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":401,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":45,"attributes":{"symbol":"AQLT","name":"Australian Quality ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Invest in a portfolio of Australia’s highest quality companies","description_long":null,"fee":0.35,"createdAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.677Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:52.800Z","publishedAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.672Z","symbol_openfigi":null,"tags":{"data":[{"id":17,"attributes":{"tag":"mining","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-03-26T22:44:49.499Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.128Z","mutations":"miners,mines,extraction"}},{"id":19,"attributes":{"tag":"finance","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-03-26T22:45:12.476Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.729Z","mutations":"financials"}},{"id":82,"attributes":{"tag":"quality","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:37.124Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:14.976Z","mutations":null}},{"id":114,"attributes":{"tag":"banks","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.538Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.538Z","mutations":"banking,bank"}},{"id":181,"attributes":{"tag":"qlty","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:09.254Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:29:59.260Z","mutations":null}},{"id":311,"attributes":{"tag":"qual","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:27.341Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:13.686Z","mutations":null}},{"id":386,"attributes":{"tag":"stability","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.427Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.427Z","mutations":"stable"}},{"id":380,"attributes":{"tag":"value","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:39.059Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:24.233Z","mutations":null}},{"id":385,"attributes":{"tag":"telstra","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.425Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:25.635Z","mutations":null}},{"id":391,"attributes":{"tag":"officeworks","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.569Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:25.694Z","mutations":null}},{"id":392,"attributes":{"tag":"cba","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.830Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.830Z","mutations":"commonwealth-bank"}},{"id":383,"attributes":{"tag":"bunnings","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.334Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:25.602Z","mutations":null}},{"id":382,"attributes":{"tag":"kmart","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.332Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:25.604Z","mutations":null}},{"id":389,"attributes":{"tag":"westpac","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:40.483Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:26.117Z","mutations":null}}]}}}}}]},{"id":1999,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":1530,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Lesson 3: The power of distribution reinvestment\n------------------------------------------------\n\nThere is no question that one reason a lot of investors buy (and in many cases, never sell) CBA is because of its dividend. After all, as of the most recent data available, CBA’s total dividend payout (by size of total dividend) was the sixth-largest in the world[[⁵]](#post-75495-footnote-5).\n\nBy reinvesting dividends instead of taking them as cash, investors would have accumulated more shares at various price points. This would have helped them compound their returns and boost long-term wealth.\n\nThe same takeaway could also apply to ETFs – regardless of whether it is a broad-market ETF or one with a specific investment goal such as income.\n\nReinvesting your ETF distribution may help your investment grow steadily over time thanks to the miracle of compounding. Setting up a disciplined dividend reinvestment plan with your ETFs can help quietly and effectively build long-term wealth. In addition, if you want a little flexibility, you can reinvest part of your distribution and receive the remainder of it in cash. But [as this article demonstrates](https://www.betashares.com.au/education/drp-the-ultimate-short-term-pain-long-term-gain-trade-off/), an automated DRP can help enhance the compounding effect that comes with staying invested.\n\nNuggets of wisdom for every investor\n------------------------------------\n\nIn this piece, we’ve demonstrated that diversification can help manage risk by reducing reliance on any single stock (pending or happening). ETFs can offer exposure to a range of assets and companies, which can help reduce the impact of individual stock movements. Reinvesting distributions can contribute to growth over time through compounding, although returns aren’t guaranteed.\n\nCBA’s recent milestone is a reminder that building wealth isn’t always flashy. However, a consistent, well thought-out long-term investment strategy may help you stay focused during market ups and downs.","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1992,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1521,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"_There are risks associated with an investment in AQLT, including market risk and non-traditional index methodology risk.

react to news headlines, but long-term returns are driven by earnings growth, so it’s worth paying attention to the second quarter US earnings season\n\nAbout one-third of companies in the US have now reported their earnings, with somewhat mixed results for the S&P 500 overall. While an impressive 80% of companies have beaten expectations with reported earnings, the average magnitude of those beats is lower than normal. Earnings growth has also slowed, the Q2 2025 year-on-year S&P 500 earnings growth now sits at 6.4%¹.\n\nDespite this, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 are around all-time highs on positive sentiment on two key themes:\n\n*   **Worst case outcomes on tariffs avoided**: With 15% tariff deals agreed with both Japan and the EU, an out and about trade war appears to have been avoided. While tariffs are much higher than pre-Liberation Day at least there is greater certainty – everyone now knows the rules of the game.\n*   **AI adoption by US businesses is taking off**: If AI can deliver a productivity dividend, and massive capex spend on AI data centres and infrastructure has a stimulatory effect, it will likely benefit the US economy as a whole, not just the hyperscalers.\n\n### Share of US businesses with paid subscriptions to AI models, platforms, and tools by sector\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/word-image-75542-1.png)\n\nSource: [Card spend data from Ramp; U.S. Census Business Trends and Outlook Survey](https://ramp.com/data/ai-index) \n\nWith this optimism, it’s not surprising to see investors attracted to the riskier parts of the equity market. Meme stocks are back in vogue and the increase in SPAC IPO² activity are bringing back risk on sentiment. However, at times like this, it’s wise to pay attention to fundamentals.\n\nIn this article we examine some key themes in US equities, and how the last 3 months have created tailwinds for the Nasdaq 100 and why it’s uniquely placed going forward.\n\n1\\. AI is here to stay but the Magnificent 7 is becoming an irrelevant concept\n------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nAI model performance has improved dramatically over the last year, and 2025 appears to be the year where businesses beyond the tech industry are jumping on board. For example, [Google’s AI models processed over 980 trillion tokens in June](https://blog.google/inside-google/message-ceo/alphabet-earnings-q2-2025/), more than double the volume from May.\n\nYet the Magnificent 7 stock prices are no longer acting like a homogeneous group. The decoupling this year can be seen in the chart below. The best performing company in this cohort is Nvidia whose share price is up 28%. Tesla’s is down 14% as markets come to the realisation that its business model is fundamentally different to the other Mag 7 names. Apple has also lost touch with the pack after facing delays in rolling out AI features that have generally underwhelmed users. The company is under increasing pressure to make a big AI acquisition to catchup to others like Meta and Microsoft.\n\n### There has been significant return dispersion among the “Magnificent 7” companies this year \n\n    ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Chart-e1753837192485-1400x474.png)    Source: Bloomberg. As at 24 July 2025. \n\nNon-Mag 7 names like Broadcom, Palantir and Netflix have taken over leadership from the likes of Apple and Tesla, as investors switch to companies that have shown stronger evidence of AI related earnings growth. As with the development of any new technology, new leaders can be expected to emerge over time.\n\n2\\. Dollar Weakness is Good for US Tech \n----------------------------------------\n\nRecent weakness in the US dollar could provide a tailwind for companies with high exposure to international sales, compared to those with more domestic US sales. This is because a weaker US dollar boosts reported earnings when foreign sales are converted back into dollars.\n\nThe Nasdaq 100 generated 45% of revenues outside of the US in 2024, meaning companies within the index could receive an above-average tailwind from USD weakness, but may also be more exposed to any escalation in trade conflict.\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/NDQ-45-of-Sales-1400x765.png) Source: FactSet, Company 10-K filings, Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research. As of 2024.\n\nThe poster child for this foreign exchange tailwind is Netflix, which earned ~56% of revenue in 2024 from outside the US. Netflix recently raised its full year earnings guidance during their latest earnings call, though stated it “_primarily reflects the foreign exchange impact from the weakening dollar relative to most other currencies_.”\n\n3\\. Tariff resolution removes retaliation risk for US Tech\n----------------------------------------------------------\n\nBut a high share of foreign revenue is also a potential vulnerability. One threat overhanging US Tech was the possibility of retaliatory actions from the EU; in particular, had an acceptable trade deal not been struck. Trump warned against going after US Tech whenever that threat was raised, and with negotiations now on a friendlier footing this risk appears to be off the table.\n\nThe Trump administration also delivered another win for US Tech in the OECD negotiations over the proposed Section 899 “revenge tax”. This new revenge tax would have hit foreign investors holding US investments, but global pension funds lobbied to have it removed. Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, agreed, but in return won an exemption for US multinationals from Pillar Two global minimum tax standards. This exemption makes it easier for US Tech companies to reduce their tax liability by locating certain business activities in low tax jurisdictions.\n\nOverall, Big Tech’s solidarity with the new Administration on Inauguration Day appears to be paying off handsomely.\n\n4\\. A silver lining from Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill\n---------------------------------------------------\n\nTrump’s One Big, Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) includes an incentive to encourage companies to spend more on R&D.\n\nThis incentive allows companies to immediately expense domestic research and development (R&D) costs, in turn reducing both taxable income and tax payments. This change is expected to provide a meaningful boost to free cash flows for companies investing heavily in innovation, benefiting technology companies such as **Amazon**, **Alphabet**, and **Meta**.\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/ndq_note_4.png) Source: Nasdaq Global Indexes, FactSet.\n\n5\\. Fed easing cycle\n--------------------\n\nMany investors would be familiar with the inflation shock of 2022 and ensuing interest rate hiking cycle that saw tech heavy indices like the Nasdaq 100 fall considerably that year.\n\nHowever, with Chair Powell’s term due to officially end in May 2026 and under pressure from Trump, it’s likely the next move on rates will be down, not up. Additionally, the announcement of trade deals with Japan and the EU pulls forwards a resolution on the inflation path and provides the Federal Reserve more certainty around future interest rate decisions. When interest rates eventually fall, growth-oriented companies will likely benefit from lower costs of capital, increasing the value of future cash flows and raising valuations. \n\nAdditionally, looser monetary policy should ease financial conditions and make it easier for technology firms to invest in research & development, talent, and acquisitions.\n\n6\\. The Nasdaq is growing beyond the big end of town\n----------------------------------------------------\n\nAfter a strong run in global markets the elevated level of index valuations naturally has come into focus. But high valuations are not a barrier to further upside when there is strong earnings momentum. As highlighted in our recent [Quarterly Equity Commentary](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/q3-equity-commentary/), earnings in the US have been more resilient than those of Europe or Australia.\n\nEarlier in this note, we pointed out the mid-single digit growth that is expected for the S&P 500 Index for Q2 2025. But what does growth look like for the Magnificent 7 and Nasdaq 100 Index more broadly?\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/ndq_note_5-1400x769.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg, Nasdaq Index Research. As at 25 July 2025.\n\nWhile Magnificent 7 earnings growth remains above 15% (YoY for Q2 2025), the remainder of the Nasdaq 100 is actually growing faster, at 16.9%.\n\nInvestment implementation: AI exposure beyond the Mag 7\n-------------------------------------------------------\n\nIn our view, AI, currency and earnings growth provide strong tailwinds for the Nasdaq 100. While the index is up 22.5% year-to-date, the forward PE ratio is around its long-term average at 27.5x. With higher rates unlikely, the threat of trade sanctions and retaliatory measures lifted, plus support from the White House, our view is the Nasdaq 100 has significant potential upside from here.\n\nImportantly, as the AI narrative is broadening out beyond the Magnificent 7, investors can invest in NDQ Nasdaq 100 ETF to also get exposure to names like Broadcom, Netflix and Palantir. NDQ has returned 20.13% p.a.[³](#post-75542-footnote-3) for the 10 years to 30 June 2025, making it the best performing large cap equity fund available in Australia over that period.\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1997,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":204,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":400,"show_chart":true,"asset":{"data":{"id":14,"attributes":{"symbol":"NDQ","name":"NASDAQ 100 ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Invest in the Nasdaq-100 in a single trade","description_long":null,"fee":0.48,"createdAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.495Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T07:17:36.266Z","publishedAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.494Z","symbol_openfigi":"NDQ:AU","tags":{"data":[{"id":3,"attributes":{"tag":"artificial-intelligence","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:12:28.475Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.094Z","mutations":"ai,llm,gpt"}},{"id":2,"attributes":{"tag":"growth","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-02-12T08:07:39.370Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:43.233Z","mutations":"appreciation"}},{"id":35,"attributes":{"tag":"high-growth","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:31.375Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:01.069Z","mutations":null}},{"id":20,"attributes":{"tag":"cloud","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-03-26T22:45:32.726Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.192Z","mutations":"cloud-storage"}},{"id":116,"attributes":{"tag":"america","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.579Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:41.579Z","mutations":"usa,us,united-states"}},{"id":128,"attributes":{"tag":"technology","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.966Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:42.966Z","mutations":"tech"}},{"id":192,"attributes":{"tag":"chatgpt","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:11.574Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:11.574Z","mutations":"gpt"}},{"id":202,"attributes":{"tag":"linkedin","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:12.279Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:01.680Z","mutations":null}},{"id":263,"attributes":{"tag":"instagram","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:19.367Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:09.126Z","mutations":null}},{"id":321,"attributes":{"tag":"amazon","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:29.216Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:29.216Z","mutations":"twitch,whole-foods"}},{"id":356,"attributes":{"tag":"snas","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:36.601Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:21.282Z","mutations":null}},{"id":369,"attributes":{"tag":"fang","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:37.199Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:21.441Z","mutations":null}},{"id":370,"attributes":{"tag":"lnas","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:38.475Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:24.098Z","mutations":null}},{"id":375,"attributes":{"tag":"salesforce","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:38.546Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:24.056Z","mutations":null}},{"id":376,"attributes":{"tag":"google","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:38.880Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:38.880Z","mutations":"goog,fitbit,youtube"}},{"id":404,"attributes":{"tag":"youtube","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:42.738Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:27.829Z","mutations":null}},{"id":282,"attributes":{"tag":"nvidia","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:22.834Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:10.384Z","mutations":null}},{"id":362,"attributes":{"tag":"tesla","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:36.700Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:36.700Z","mutations":"elon,elon-musk"}}]}}}}}]},{"id":1995,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1527,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nThere are risks associated with an investment in NDQ including market risk, country risk, currency risk and sector risk.

a niche hobby stereotyped as the domain of young people in headphones, gaming has grown into a near-US$300 billion¹ industry – and with it, creating a slew of investment ideas with long-term potential.\n\nCompanies like Nintendo, Sega and Take Two have been joined by newer players like Roblox, Tencent and Applovin in a highly competitive sector that now boasts 2.7 billion players in every corner of the world².\n\nSpecific games like League of Legends (owned by Riot Games, a subsidiary of Tencent) and Overwatch (developed by Blizzard Entertainment, now owned by Microsoft) now have tournaments with million-dollar prizes which draw huge crowds.\n\nSo how did video game companies and the wider eSports thematic grow so quickly – and is there scope for its growth to continue?\n\nAdoption and monetisation take flight\n-------------------------------------\n\nAs the above statistics demonstrate, gaming is far from the niche that it once used to be. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the global games market was larger than industries such as movies and North American sports combined³.\n\nMore than that, gaming has become a foundational pillar of the digital economy with games evolving to represent social platforms, fitness, educational and productivity tools, creator-driven economies as well as sources of high-quality advertising and data collection.\n\nLast year, the global games market brought in revenues of US$182.7 billion – more than half of that coming from mobile games. By 2027, this figure could top US$200 billion⁴.\n\n_![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/word-image-75113-1.png)_\n\n_Source: Newzoo Games Market Reports and Forecasts. As at May 2025. Provided for illustrative purposes only._\n\nThe games market has continued to grow as adoption continues to soar and monetisation, particularly through in-game purchases and targeted advertising, continues to pick up.\n\nHow the digital world brings gamers together\n--------------------------------------------\n\nThe next stage for gaming will likely involve the continued rise of digital distribution as well as the fall in physical distribution. While both of these avenues generate huge margins for their owners, digital-native games can generate anywhere between 70-85% gross margins and even create whole new mini-economies within games.\n\n> eSports events are another symbol of the industry’s massive growth. July 2025 sees the second eSports World Cup taking place in Riyadh, with the event involving 2000 players from 200 clubs and 100 countries competing for a US$70 million prize pot⁵.\n\nThese events have the potential to generate significant revenues and margins for their owners – further emphasising the investment potential available in this field.\n\nCould the video game industry be recession-resilient?\n-----------------------------------------------------\n\nDigitisation has also brought about an interesting side effect – video game industry revenues can remain resilient even in the event of a recession⁶.\n\nMany games are now free-to-play or available through an app store at a low cost. Additionally, gaming subscription services may see increased adoption during recessions given they offer access to a library of games for a fixed fee.\n\nThis provides high value for money compared to other leisure activities. In times of recession, this combination of accessibility, low entry cost and high engagement makes gaming a counter-cyclical investment theme – resilient in the bad times and strong in the good times⁷.\n\n> **The hard data backs this up**. During the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, video game sales increased by 19% year-over-year⁸.\n\nIn that same year, Activision and Vivendi Games merged to form the then-third largest video game publisher in the world, Activision Blizzard. The merger made the combined company more financially stable. In just over a decade, Activision Blizzard doubled annual revenues⁹ and created a business model that was so successful that it was eventually bought by Microsoft for US$68.7 billion in 2022¹⁰.\n\nLocally, and in more recent times, the Australian digital games industry actually recorded a 22% revenue _increase_ on 2020 levels¹¹. During 2021–22, digital game development businesses produced 299 digital games, a 68% increase from 178 games in 2015–16¹². Since then, a federal Digital Games Tax Offset and state-based programs of a similar nature have been introduced in Australia to support the costs of creating video games¹³.\n\nWho’s in the game?\n------------------\n\nThree of the biggest names in the space are Nintendo, Roblox and Applovin.\n\n**Nintendo (TYO: 7974)** needs no introduction to many of you. In case you do need one, the Japanese video game giant is famed for its gaming consoles (Nintendo 64, GameCube, Wii and the DS to name a few) as well as its games – the most famous of which is the Super Mario series. Since it was created in September 1985, the Super Mario series has seen 24 games hit the market¹⁴.\n\nBut its newest innovation might be its biggest success to date. The Nintendo Switch 2, which was released in June 2025, sold 3.5 million units in four days¹⁵. It’s now Nintendo’s fastest-selling console ever and when it’s reflected in its next financial results, may cause quite the stir for investors.\n\n**Roblox (NYSE: RBLX)** is an American video game developer where the games are created by the players themselves (as opposed to a single developer or company). Roblox’s platform also has a heavy social element and hosts its own virtual economy called Robux.\n\nIn 2024, daily active users (DAUs) on the platform increased by 21% to nearly 83 million. Hours engaged increased by 23% in the same time period. This growth continued into the first quarter of 2025, with DAUs climbing 26% to 98 million and revenue increasing by 29% to US$1.03 billion¹⁶.\n\nFinally, **Applovin (NASDAQ: APP)** is an ad platform which allows game publishers to optimise ads and in game content. The introduction of AppLovin’s AI-driven ad engine, Axon 2, has been pivotal. This platform has enhanced ad targeting efficiency, leading to a 71% surge in year-over-year advertising revenue. In its Q1 2025 earnings report, net income surged 144% year-over-year¹⁷.\n\nIs it time to get in the game?\n------------------------------\n\nThese companies were also three of the largest contributors to the total return performance of Betashares Video Games and Esports ETF (ASX: GAME). GAME was the top-performing Betashares ETF of the last 12 months (to 30 June 2025), and since its inception on 7 February 2022, GAME has recorded a total return of 14.85% per annum (remembering that past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance).\n","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1972,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":203,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":399,"show_chart":true,"asset":{"data":{"id":60,"attributes":{"symbol":"GAME","name":"Video Games and Esports ETF","issuer":"Betashares","market":"AU","description_short":"Exposure to a portfolio of leading global video gaming and esports companies","description_long":null,"fee":0.57,"createdAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.768Z","updatedAt":"2025-07-10T04:02:10.291Z","publishedAt":"2023-09-21T07:56:04.765Z","symbol_openfigi":null,"tags":{"data":[{"id":67,"attributes":{"tag":"gaming","discoverable":true,"createdAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:34.330Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-06T04:00:34.330Z","mutations":"gamer"}},{"id":195,"attributes":{"tag":"waze","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:11.677Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:00.904Z","mutations":null}},{"id":206,"attributes":{"tag":"xbox","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:12.325Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:01.571Z","mutations":null}},{"id":243,"attributes":{"tag":"espo","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:16.088Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:05.605Z","mutations":null}},{"id":279,"attributes":{"tag":"electronic-arts","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:21.574Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:21.574Z","mutations":"ea-games"}},{"id":283,"attributes":{"tag":"roblox","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:22.834Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:10.413Z","mutations":null}},{"id":302,"attributes":{"tag":"nintendo","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:24.853Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:12.022Z","mutations":null}},{"id":401,"attributes":{"tag":"cod","discoverable":false,"createdAt":"2025-06-19T01:28:42.724Z","updatedAt":"2025-06-19T01:30:27.813Z","mutations":null}}]}}}}}]},{"id":1968,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1494,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"There are risks associated with investment in the Fund, including market risk, sector risk, international investment risk and concentration risk.

week in review\n---------------------\n\nA good start to the Q2 US earnings reporting season supported global stocks last week, despite a firm US inflation report and ongoing tariff threats from President Trump.   \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/chart1-2.png)\n\nUS tariff levels inch above market expectations\n-----------------------------------------------\n\nWith markets becoming increasingly numb to Trump’s persistent tariff threats, equities managed to squeeze out a small gain last week thanks to encouraging earnings reports.\n\nTrump made a series of threats last week against Europe and announced a deal that will see Indonesian goods entering the US face a 19% tariff. The latter is consistent with the emerging view that the average tariff level the US sets looks closer to being 15-20%, rather than the 10% baseline originally hoped for by markets. Rumours also swirled (yet again) around Trump’s desire to sack Fed chair Jerome Powell – which still does not seem likely. \n\nEarnings support stocks\n-----------------------\n\nAccording to FactSet meanwhile, 83% of the 12% of S&P 500 companies that have reported earnings so far have beat expectations. This is a touch above the 5-year average beat of 78%. Perhaps ironically, recent financial market volatility – thanks to tariff concerns – may have helped boost the trading income of several major financial companies, which usually lead off the US earnings reporting season.\n\nOther supportive factors last week were Federal Reserve Board member Chris Waller trying hard to get Trump’s attention – as a possible Powell replacement – by arguing for a July rate cut yet again. To my mind, if anything, Waller’s paper-thin argument for a near-term rate cut is so obviously political it already undermines his economic credibility. But welcome to the new America!\n\nThe one key piece of US economic data last week was the June CPI report. Headline inflation rose 0.3%, in line with market expectations, while core prices rose 0.2%, or a little less than expected. Although there were some early signs of tariff effects feeding through into clothing and furniture prices, combined softness in car prices, housing and services helped keep overall price gains limited. \n\nOutside of the US, Chinese GDP rose a slightly better than expected 1.1% in Q2, despite ongoing tariffs concerns and an ailing property sector. Indeed, as noted by BHP last week, Chinese demand for our key commodity exports remains resilient, reflecting still firm domestic demand and exports.  \n\n**Global market trends**\n\nGrowth and technology had another good week despite the overall US market not outperforming non-US markets. \n\nThe main trend of note over recent months has been the rebound in US/growth/technology relative performance, in line with the market bounce back since early April. Despite the risk-on tone over this period, small caps have refused to outperform so far.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/chart2-2.png)\n\nGlobal week ahead: US inflation test\n------------------------------------\n\nIt’s a relatively quiet week for global markets, with US durable goods and a speech by Fed chair Powell being the main US highlights. The European Central Bank meets and is expected to leave rates on hold. In terms of earnings, reports from Alphabet and Tesla on Wednesday headline the week.\n\nNote, according to FactSet, overall earnings for S&P 500 companies are expected to have risen 5.5% in the year to end-June, although the Mag-7 are expected to have grown earnings 14.1% – leaving earnings among the other 493 companies up only 3.4%. So while the Mag-7 account for around one third of the S&P 500’s market capitalisation, they’re also accounting for around 40% of its earnings growth over the past year. \n\nAustralian week in review\n-------------------------\n\nLocal stocks enjoyed a good week with the S&P/ASX 200 up 2.1%, supported by heightened rate cut expectations.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/chart3-3.png)\n\nThe main local data highlight was the weaker-than-expected labour market report, with employment up only 2k in June and the unemployment rate rising from 4.1% to 4.3%.\n\nAlthough monthly employment growth can be volatile, it was the second successive soft result, although this did follow a bumper employment gain in April. All up, however, it does suggest tentative signs of some softening in labour market conditions, which adds to the case for an RBA rate cut next month – provided next week’s Q2 CPI result is not too high. Provided annual trimmed mean inflation is no more than 2.7% next week – as I expect – it would seem a done deal that the RBA will cut rates in August.\n\nJust for interest, below are some of the major sector trends within the Australian market. As evident, financials have beaten resources since early 2023, while technology and quality have also done well. As is the case globally, small caps are so far refusing to outperform in this upswing.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/chart4-1.png)\n\nAustralian week ahead\n---------------------\n\nThere’s little on the local data front this week with minutes to the recent RBA Board meeting tomorrow being the main highlight.\n\nThese should tell us what we already know – namely, the Bank chose to leave rates steady this month as it, not unreasonably, wanted to wait for confirmation of low inflation in next week’s Q2 CPI report. \n\n**Have a great week!**\n----------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1949,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1485,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

past 12 months have felt a little like surfing a choppy break – smooth runs but plenty of unpredictable swells.\n\nBut in spite of all the headlines and risks, markets seemed to have shrugged it off. The ASX 200 finished FY25 up 10.2% while the S&P 500 recorded a 15%+ gain. Two rate cuts from the RBA wouldn’t have hurt either.\n\nNow, as a new financial year dawns, we’ve asked the Betashares investment team to share their best ideas for the next six months. Their ideas span four major asset classes and two secular themes – and are all available on Betashares Direct.\n\nWhile the past doesn’t predict the future, these ideas might just inspire your next investment.\n\n_Unless otherwise stated, all fund returns are shown as at 30 June 2025, net of fees. Past performance is not indicative of future returns._\n\nAustralian equities\n-------------------\n\nIf the ASX 200’s most recent 12 months could be summed up in three letters, chances are it would be “CBA”.\n\nOver the last 12 months to 30 June 2025, Bloomberg data revealed that CBA alone accounted for 33% of the S&P/ASX 200’s total return¹.\n\nAlthough calling an end to Australia’s big banks’ rally has been a fool’s game thus far, investors would be wise to continue to diversify their portfolios away from the big banks.\n\nOne way to achieve this is Betashares Australian Quality ETF (ASX: AQLT). AQLT aims to track an index that holds 40 high-quality companies. AQLT has returned 12.39% p.a. since its inception on 4 April 2022 and has outperformed the S&P/ASX 200 over that same period despite holding relatively fewer CBA shares.\n\nAt the other end of the market, there’s evidence to suggest Australian small caps may now be primed for a reversal after a tough run. They’re trading at a steep discount to large caps, and improving economic conditions and corporate fundamentals could support a turnaround.\n\nOne way to invest in this space is Betahares Australian Small Companies Select ETF (ASX: SMLL). SMLL aims to track an index consisting of 50-100 high-quality small cap companies. Since its inception on 7 April 2017, SMLL has delivered a total return of 6.52%

equities\n-----------\n\nDespite the policy disruptions and geopolitical tensions, US companies continue to report robust earnings.\n\nMost notably, the Magnificent Seven tech stocks collectively added around US$25 billion in nominal earnings for the 12 months to Q1 2025². That’s a mammoth number especially when you consider how large these companies already are. An easy way to access these companies is through the NDQ Nasdaq 100 ETF  and its currency hedged version, **Betashares Nasdaq 100 Currency Hedged ETF** (ASX: HNDQ).³ Currency hedging helps protect your investment returns from the ups and downs of foreign exchange rates.\n\nNDQ provides Australian investors with exposure to some of the US’ largest non-financial companies including the ‘Magnificent 7’. Over the past 10 years, it has returned 20.1% p.a. on average.\n\nOutside the Magnificent Seven, a broadening of US corporate earnings and performance is also occurring.

review\n---------------------\n\nGlobal stocks edged lower last week as concerns around US President Trump’s tariff strategy returned.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/chart1-1.png)\n\nTariffs are back\n----------------\n\nGlobal equities tried hard last week to ignore the flurry of tariff announcements from US President Donald Trump. Trump announced a 50% tariff on copper and Brazil, 35% on Canada and threatened 30% tariffs on Europe and Mexico.\n\nMost of these are still “threatened” tariff levels that will apply on 1 August if satisfactory trade deals are not finalised. But at best, it now seems that the minimum tariff countries will face will be around 15-20% and not the 10% universal tariff that has applied since Trump postponed his 2 April  “liberation day” tariffs. \n\nMarkets are still hoping deals will be struck and lower tariffs will eventually be put in place. But countries are mulling their options – strike back, strike a deal or do nothing to test if Trump is bluffing?\n\nAfter all, it should not be forgotten that large tariffs on major trading partners are a tax on US consumers and business. We are yet to see the price impacts but they are likely coming.\n\nIf all countries face large tariffs, moreover, they are less likely to lose competitiveness against other countries exporting to the US. Meanwhile, with the US close to full employment and few expecting large tariffs to last much longer under Trump, it’s hard to expect much import replacement to take place either.  \n\nTherefore, the key issue returns: will the tariffs be large enough to tip the US economy into recession? And if this does start to become a serious risk, will Trump eventually chicken out? With ultimate tariff levels still to be determined and Trump’s form in pulling back, the worst-case scenario is still not yet my base case.  \n\nGlobal market trends\n--------------------\n\nIt was a mixed performance across global equity markets last week, with emerging markets and Europe holding up better than the US and Japan. \n\nAll up, however, the main trend of note over recent weeks has been the rebound in US/growth/technology relative performance, in line with the market bounce back since early April. Despite the risk-on tone over this period, small caps have refused to outperform so far.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/chart2-1.png)\n\nGlobal week ahead: US inflation test\n------------------------------------\n\nWhile markets will keep careful watch over tariff developments, we also get a smattering of important US economic data this week – along with the start of the Q2 earnings reporting season.\n\nWith modest tariffs taking effect last month, the June consumer price index (CPI) report due out tonight is expected to show a bit more of a rise than seen so far this year. Core prices are expected to rise 0.3% after a 0.1% gain in May. Markets seem to be bracing for some tariff effect to come through soon, though the magnitude and persistence of the inflation shock remains unclear. \n\nImportant clues as to tariff effects will also come via the producer and import price indices due out this week. That said, the consensus expects a modest 0.3% and 0.2% monthly gain in each respectively.\n\nUS retail sales, industrial production and consumer sentiment round out the key US economic data this week. Markets may get a little concerned if retail sales show further signs of softening. \n\nIn China, the monthly “data dump” covering retail sales, business investment and industrial production is out today. We also get Q2 Chinese GDP, which is expected to show the economy is neither too hot or cold. A 1% quarterly gain is anticipated. \n\nAustralian week in review\n-------------------------\n\nLocal stocks pulled back in line with global markets last week. Investors were disappointed by the Reserve Bank’s decision not to cut interest rates.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/chart3-2.png)\n\nAs I suggested last week, the RBA did ultimately refrain from cutting interest rates – and exactly for the reason I expected. Namely, given the volatility found in the monthly CPI reports, the RBA would wait for confirmation of a further reduction in underlying inflation in the Q2 CPI due next week. It’s a case of a rate cut delayed, not denied. I fully anticipate a good CPI next week and a rate cut in August. \n\nAlso of note, RBA Governor Michele Bullock indicated that markets can no longer rely on signalling from the Bank (via speeches or media leaks) if market expectations of RBA action begin to diverge meaningfully – as was the case last week. After all, to do so would undermine the authority of the newly restructured RBA Board, which now has a few fiercely independent members who won’t take kindly to reading in the paper what they are supposed to decide a week ahead of schedule!\n\nMy sense is the failure of the RBA to signal that market expectations were wrong (or at least overly optimistic) is why many economists jumped on the rate cut bandwagon last week. It was not due to weakness in retail sales or tariff uncertainty, as some have claimed.\n\nThe bottom line is all economists – myself included – must continue to keep careful watch of the data and form our own opinions as to what the Bank may or may not do. \n\nAs I’ve been repeatedly reminded last week – you are only as good as your last call! \n\nAustralian week ahead: A still firm labour market\n-------------------------------------------------\n\nSupport for the case that the RBA does not need to rush to cut interest rates should be found in this Thursday’s labour market report. After a surprise drop in employment during May – which followed a surprise surge in April – a more normal 20k gain in employment is expected this week, which should be enough to keep the unemployment rate steady at 4.1%. \n\nDespite the still-solid labour market, consumer spending remains the major drag on economic growth. Although there’s been some recovery in consumer sentiment over the past year, it remains below average – and the return of tariff uncertainty and the RBA’s failure to cut rates last week could see sentiment dip back a little in tomorrow’s report.   \n\n**Have a great week!**\n----------------------","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1837,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1443,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

they know it or not, many Australians are already familiar with the idea of gearing. Millions of Australians have built generational wealth through residential property.\n\nIf you’ve bought property, either to live in or as an investment, the chances are you funded your purchase partly through a mortgage. Purely from an investment perspective, if the property increases in value over time by more than what you borrowed from the bank, you are better off. Gearing into property allows the equity in your house to increase at a rate potentially much faster than the value of the property itself.\n\nThis is the essence of gearing.\n\nWhat is gearing?\n----------------\n\nGearing, sometimes referred to as leverage, involves borrowing money to increase the size of an investment and potentially increase (or ‘amplify’) both gains and losses.\n\nIt can be used across most asset classes and takes several forms, from investment loans and structured products, to options, futures and geared funds.\n\nPut simply, gearing lets you invest more than you currently have. If the assets you invest in rise in value by more than the cost of borrowing, your overall return is higher than if you’d just used your own money. But the reverse is also true: if the investment falls, your losses are magnified too. Gearing is like turning up the volume on your investment outcomes – both the good and the bad.\n\nIn the context of geared ETFs, this borrowing happens inside the fund itself. You invest your money in the ETF, and the fund manager adds borrowed money to give you greater exposure to the underlying assets, i.e. share portfolio.\n\nGearing with fewer barriers\n---------------------------\n\nFor investors comfortable with the risks, geared ETFs offer a way to increase market exposure and potentially accelerate long-term wealth creation, without the costs and complexities of traditional margin lending.\n\nBetashares’ Wealth Builder ETFs provide cost-effective, internally geared exposure to the Australian and global sharemarkets. The funds handle all borrowing on your behalf, meaning you do not need to take out a margin loan. The investor doesn’t have to worry about all the loan applications, credit checks or the risk of margin calls.\n\nAnother significant benefit is that Betashares can access funding for the Wealth Builder ETFs at institutional interest rates. These rates are significantly lower than the interest rates typically available to individual investors seeking to borrow on their own account, meaning individual investors have access to a reduced cost of borrowing.\n\n### The Betashares Wealth Builder range currently comprises three different funds:\n\n*   Betashares Wealth Builder Diversified All Growth Geared (30-40% LVR) Complex ETF (ASX: GHHF)\n*   Betashares Wealth Builder Australia 200 Geared (30-40% LVR) Complex ETF (ASX: G200)\n*   Betashares Wealth Builder Nasdaq 100 Geared (30-40% LVR) Complex ETF (ASX: GNDQ)\n\nAll three Wealth Builder ETFs target loan-to-valuation ratios (LVR) of between 30 to 40%. The LVR is also known as the gearing ratio. These funds are considered “moderately geared” and can be accessed via Betashares Direct.","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1808,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"medium","size_web":null},{"id":179,"__component":"lists.asset","layout_configuration":"standard_home","items":[{"id":372,"show_chart":false,"asset":{"data":{"id":173,"attributes":{"symbol":"GHHF","name":"Wealth

do they work?\n-----------------\n\nThe amount borrowed is actively managed to keep the fund’s gearing ratio within a target range of 30-40% on a given day. This means that for every $100 you invest, you’ll typically gain exposure to between $143 and $167 worth of assets on a given day. This ratio allows you to amplify your investment potential while keeping gearing at a moderate level.\n\nIt’s important to note that over periods longer than a day, each fund’s geared exposure may not necessarily be in this range due to the following reasons:\n\n*   Rebalancing activity to stay within the geared exposure range\n*   The compounding of investment returns over time\n*   The impact of funding costs, management fees and transaction costs\n\nAs a result, investors should review their investment regularly to ensure it continues to align with their goals and risk tolerance.\n\nA practical example of how gearing can affect investment performance\n\nWhen markets are rising or falling, gearing amplifies your returns. Let’s take a look at an example to see how this works.\n\nTwo illustrative examples are shown below, both assuming an LVR of 40%, meaning 40% of the total money invested is borrowed money. In this simple example, neither borrowing costs nor any income from the investments are taken into account. It’s also important to note that this example does not reflect actual fund performance and that actual results may differ materially.\n\nIn Scenario 1, where the sharemarket has risen by 10%, gearing has resulted in a 16.7% return on the investor’s initial contribution.\n\n![A screenshot of a phone\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/a-screenshot-of-a-phone-ai-generated-content-may.png)\n\nHowever, in Scenario 2 where the sharemarket has fallen by 10%, the effects of gearing have resulted in a 16.7% loss.\n\n![A screenshot of a graph\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/a-screenshot-of-a-graph-ai-generated-content-may-1.png)\n\nIn the chart below, we use simulated historical performance to compare the performance of a moderately geared portfolio of Australian equities to a corresponding ungeared strategy over the period from September 2010 to June 2025 (almost 15 years).\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Total-return-comparison-1.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. Betashares. This information is provided for illustrative purposes only and is not representative of actual fund performance. Actual outcomes may differ materially. The information is not a recommendation or offer to make any investment or to adopt any particular investment strategy. **Simulated past performance is not indicative of future performance of any fund or strategy**.\n\nThis chart is for illustrative purposes only and is based on assumptions set out in the ‘Important information’ section at the end of this article. It does not represent actual fund performance.\n\nWhat are the risks?\n-------------------\n\nGearing magnifies both gains and losses and carries higher risk than non-geared investments. In a rising market, you may outperform an equivalent ungeared investment; in a falling market, the reverse is true. Investing in geared ETFs also comes with greater volatility.\n\nFor these reasons gearing may not be a suitable strategy for all investors.\n\nGeared ETFs also tend to be more expensive compared with their ungeared counterparts. This may be important for cost-conscious investors.\n\nIn the right hands, gearing can be investing’s best kept secret\n---------------------------------------------------------------\n\nFor the investor with a long-term outlook, geared ETFs can be a powerful tool, offering a way to potentially accelerate wealth creation.\n\nGeared ETFs should always be used as part of a broader, well-considered strategy. For those investors who can tolerate the risks, gearing could be a valuable step toward reaching your financial goals.\n\n","style":"betashares","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1803,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1411,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"Betashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

change to US tax law could deliver a cash boost to some of the Nasdaq 100’s biggest names – just as earnings momentum slows. Find out why a tweak to research and development (R&D) rules could reignite innovation and lift investor returns.\n\nUS company earnings have faced some headwinds recently, as slower economic growth and higher tariffs put pressure on profits. Analysts have been trimming earnings forecasts, with some companies warning that results may come in below expectations.\n\nEven so, earnings across the broader US market are still expected to grow by 9.1%[¹]  in 2025. While the next quarter might be softer, with growth forecast at just 5%[²], the slowest pace since late 2023, there may be a surprise on the horizon for some of the market’s biggest tech names.\n\nThat surprise comes from President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA).\n\nA key section of the bill gives a near-term cash flow boost to companies that invest heavily in R&D, especially in sectors like technology and healthcare.\n\n**What’s in the bill?**\n-----------------------\n\nOne provision in the bill, known as Section 70302, would allow US companies to immediately expense domestic R&D costs, in turn reducing both taxable income and tax payments. This would then leave more cash in hand to reinvest in innovation.\n\nIt’s a potential gamechanger for R&D-heavy firms like Alphabet, Amazon and Meta, which thrive on constant product and technology development.\n\nFor example, Alphabet’s self-driving car business, Waymo, is currently unprofitable, but the tax deductions could help fund the technology and infrastructure needed to scale its fleet operations.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Picture1.png)\n\nSource: Nasdaq Global Indexes, FactSet.

mortgage holders, the Reserve Bank’s latest interest rate cutting cycle has likely come as a welcome relief. But for savers – particularly those who rely on term deposits for a recurring income – it’s a different story.\n\nThe Reserve Bank has already cut interest rates twice this cycle. Betashares Chief Economist David Bassanese believes we could see up to two more cuts this year and two more next year. If rate markets are right, the cash rate could fall below 3% by this time next year¹.\n\nIf that plays out (even with the caveat that actual results can differ materially from forecasts), term deposit rates could fall significantly, and some individuals could miss out on a lot of money in missed interest. That said, there are options available for savers looking for investment options that provide stable income and competitive yield in a falling rate environment.\n\nHow much could be lost?\n-----------------------\n\nAnalysis by the Betashares Fixed Income team shows that, since the start of the current RBA rate-cutting cycle, the average advertised one-year term deposit rate has already declined by 0.7 percentage points to 3.8% (as at end of May 2025).²\n\nTerm deposit rates may also decline further because both the BBSW (bank bill swap rate) and 1-year government bond yields have been declining.\n\nBank bill swap rates are short-term credit rates that can have an impact on both household and business loan interest rates. They can also impact the value of investments with exposures to interest rates like term deposits. The 1-year government bond yield is also a key indicator of short-term interest rates. Lower yields could indicate an increase in investors who are seeking safety in assets like term deposits – and the more demand, the less the banks have to offer in interest to entice you.\n\nBased on where 1-year bond yields and BBSW sit today and given that term deposit rates typically lag behind both, our Fixed Income team is currently forecasting that the term deposit rate could decline another 25-50 basis points in 2025.\n\n**![A graph with lines and numbers\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/a-graph-with-lines-and-numbers-ai-generated-conte.png)**\n\nSource: Bloomberg, as at 31 May 2025. Yields are subject to change. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. Term deposit rates are based on RBA data³.\n\nThe cumulative impact of the first two rate cuts means that $6 billion less income will be earned over time⁴ (assuming your money is parked in a 12-month term deposit and rates had remained unchanged). That’s because when the RBA cuts the cash rate, the banks (who also administer the term deposits) tend to follow suit. If the RBA delivers another two to three rate cuts this cycle, as markets are forecasting, another $5 billion could be at risk⁵.\n\nThat could amount to $11 billion in total income disappearing from term deposit holders’ pockets in the space of 12 to 18 months. For retirees or pre-retirees, that could be a significant loss of income heading into a key period of their lives. And for investors of all ages who’ve used term deposits as a ‘safe haven’ to park their money, it raises the question: is the return still worth it?\n\nThree potential investment options\n----------------------------------\n\nInvestors seeking some of the characteristics of a term deposit may find potential in the new Betashares Defined Income Bond ETF range, consisting of:\n\n*   [Betashares 2028 Fixed Term Corporate Bond Active ETF (ASX: 28BB)](https://direct.betashares.com.au/asset/AU/28BB)\n*   [Betashares 2029 Fixed Term Corporate Bond Active ETF (ASX: 29BB)](https://direct.betashares.com.au/asset/AU/29BB)\n*   [Betashares 2030 Fixed Term Corporate Bond Active ETF (ASX: 30BB)](https://direct.betashares.com.au/asset/AU/30BB)\n\nRecently launched on the ASX, these three ETFs offer the features of an individual bond, combined with the benefits of an ETF structure.\n\nEach fund provides access to a diversified portfolio of investment-grade Australian corporate bonds, maturing in the 12 months leading up to May 2028, 2029 or 2030. Investors can choose to invest in a single maturity year or spread their exposure across multiple years.\n\nInvesting in these ETFs carries five key benefits:\n\n*   **Stable income – paid monthly**. The Funds target fixed monthly income payments providing predictability of cash flow.⁶\n*   **Competitive yield.** At the time of writing, each ETF offers a yield (net of fees) higher than the Australian market’s expectations for long-term interest rates (see figure below).⁷\n\n![A graph of a graph with numbers and a line\nAI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/a-graph-of-a-graph-with-numbers-and-a-line-ai-gen.png)\n\nSource: Bloomberg. As at 19 June 2025. Overnight Indexed Swap (OIS) represent the market’s expectation of the total return on cash invested at the prevailing daily cash rate over different time periods. Each Defined Income Bond ETF’s Yield to Worst (YTW) is net of fees and represents the annualised total expected return of a Fund’s portfolio if underlying bonds are held to maturity or called and do not default, and the coupons are reinvested at the YTW. Assumes no change in interest rates. Yields are subject to change over time.Other related measures of return include Yield to Maturity (YTM) and Yield to Call (YTC). YTM is the expected annualised return over the bond’s life. YTM factors in both regular coupon payments and the capital gain/loss that will be made if the bond is held until maturity (i.e. the difference between the bond’s current price and its face value). YTM assumes that coupons are reinvested. YTC is calculated based on a bond’s first or earliest call date, rather than date of maturity. YTW is the lower of YTM or YTC, making it the most conservative measure of yield. For more information, please see [https://www.betashares.com.au/education/are-you-seeing-the-right-yield-with-fixed-income/](https://www.betashares.com.au/education/are-you-seeing-the-right-yield-with-fixed-income/).\n\n*   **A clear investment timeline.** Each Fund has a set maturity date, just like a traditional bond.\n*   **Diversified exposure**. Each fund invests in a portfolio of Australian fixed-rate, investment-grade corporate bonds, providing diversified exposure across a range of corporate issuers.\n*   **Daily liquidity.** Investors have the flexibility and power to manage their investments at any time prior to maturity on the ASX.\n\nA note on risk\n--------------\n\nIt’s important to note that the products within the Betashares Defined Income Bond ETF range are not substitutes for term deposits. For one, term deposits receive the benefit of a government guarantee while term annuities receive the benefit of a guarantee provided by an APRA-regulated entity. An investment in a Defined Income Bond ETF provides neither of these features.\n\nThey could, however, be a suitable replacement for those seeking higher income than term deposits are offering but also understand that investing in corporate bonds comes with risks.\n\n**Disclaimer**\n\nFuture results are inherently uncertain.

Actual events or results may differ materially, positively or negatively, from those reflected or contemplated in such forward-looking statements. To the extent permitted by law Betashares accepts no liability for any loss from reliance on this information.\n\nThere are risks associated with an investment in the Defined Income Funds, including interest rate risk, credit risk and market risk.

In Australia, term deposit rates offered by banks are heavily influenced by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) cash rate. When the cash rate changes, banks typically adjust the term deposit rates in the same direction, though not always by the same amount or immediately. While the cash rate is a strong directional benchmark, actual term deposit rates are influenced by a mix of macro and bank-specific factors, such as market competition, specific funding needs and rate outlook.

economic growth, uncertainty around US trade policy and elevated levels of interest rates pose challenges for the global M&A environment this year. Nevertheless, the cybersecurity industry has seen a pickup in dealmaking activity despite the challenging economic backdrop.\n\nCybersecurity M&A activity reached 102 deals in the first quarter of 2025, up from 95 in Q1 2024 according to data from research firm PitchBook¹. There are several driving forces behind this growth:\n\n**Digital threats are rising**\n------------------------------\n\nThe rise of AI and new technologies has created cybersecurity challenges. While AI has the potential to unlock major productivity benefits, it is also being exploited by adversaries to attack critical network systems and infrastructure.\n\nAdditionally, we are in a geopolitically fragmented world with tensions between economic powerhouses forcing governments, businesses, and individuals to be more proactive in protecting their data. As a result, according to International Data Corporation (IDC), global security spending is forecast to grow at double-digit rates annually, surpassing $260 billion USD this year.\n\n ![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/word-image-74339-2.png)\n\nSource: IDC Worldwide Security Spending Guide (July 2024), Gartner Worldwide IT Spending (October 2024). Actual results may differ materially from forecasts.\n\nThis projected level of spending provides a tailwind for incumbent leaders in the cybersecurity industry, including **CrowdStrike** and **Palo Alto** which currently protect thousands of organisations and their networks from malicious attacks.\n\n**Platformisation trend**\n-------------------------\n\nBusinesses are simplifying the management of their security infrastructure by reducing the number of software licenses they have with various vendors.\n\nThis trend signifies a shift to streamline operations, allowing security teams across industries to be more proactive in actively detecting incoming threats whilst safeguarding assets and freeing up resources to optimise workflow processes. This consolidation theme will likely support the larger cybersecurity companies, a number of which have been acquiring smaller companies that offer specialised solutions which they can then integrate on existing platforms.\n\n**Healthy private equity activity**\n-----------------------------------\n\nPrivate equity firms have a lot of dry powder to deploy with reports² from S&P Global Market Intelligence estimating that amount to be around $2.62 trillion USD (as at July 2024).\n\nThese firms are becoming increasingly attracted to the cybersecurity industry given its growth potential and recurring revenue models which tend to be sticky in nature (i.e., firms are unlikely to cut spending on security even during market downturns). This ‘stickiness’ may provide some level of resiliency for portfolios invested in cybersecurity companies.\n\n**Expanding defence budgets**\n-----------------------------\n\nDefence budgets globally have allocated significant increases to cybersecurity recently, reflecting its importance in modern warfare and national security.\n\nFor example, the US National Defence Authorisation ACT (NDAA) has allocated approximately $30 billion to cybersecurity initiatives in FY2025³. And as part of [NATO’s total defence spending target of 5%](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/nato-war-dividend/), 1.5% of that would be related to “defence-related outlays” which includes spending on cybersecurity.\n\nAll of these factors together have helped drive substantial acquisition activity over the last year, including:\n\n*   [Google’s US$32 billion acquisition of cloud security startup Wiz (March 2025)](https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/identity-security/google-announces-agreement-acquire-wiz)\n*   [Cisco’s US$28 billion acquisition of Splunk (March 2024)](https://www.cisco.com/site/au/en/about/corporate-strategy-office/acquisitions/splunk/index.html)\n*   [Thoma Bravo’s US$5.3 billion acquisition of Darktrace (October 2024)](https://www.thomabravo.com/press-releases/thoma-bravo-completes-acquisition-of-darktrace)\n*   [Mastercard’s US$2.65 billion acquisition of Recorded Future (December 2024)](https://investor.mastercard.com/investor-news/investor-news-details/2024/Mastercard-Finalizes-Acquisition-of-Recorded-Future/default.aspx)\n*   [CyberArk’s US$1.54 billion acquisition of Venafi (October 2024)](https://www.cyberark.com/press/cyberark-completes-acquisition-of-machine-identity-management-leader-venafi/)\n\nInvestment Implications\n-----------------------\n\nIn a world mired by rising geopolitical tensions and uncertainty, the [Betashares Cybersecurity ETF (ASX: HACK)](https://direct.betashares.com.au/asset/AU/HACK) provides a simple way for Australian investors to gain exposure to the growing global cybersecurity sector.\n\nHACK has benefited from strong M&A activity occurring in the cybersecurity industry with 28 portfolio companies having been taken over since the fund’s inception.\n\nOver the 5 year period to 30 May 2025, HACK has returned 18.0% p.a. \\* and includes key holdings such as **Broadcom**, **CrowdStrike**, **Palo Alto Networks**, **Cisco** and **Infosys**⁴.\n\nFuture results are inherently uncertain.

you prefer, you can listen to this week’s Bass Bites here:** \n------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n[https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/ElevenLabs\\_Bass\\_Bites\\_-\\_30.mp3](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/ElevenLabs_Bass_Bites_-_30.mp3)\n\nGlobal week in review\n---------------------\n\nGlobal stocks bounced back last week due to a Middle East ceasefire and lingering hopes of US rate cuts later this year. Most notably, the S&P 500 touched a new record high, fully unwinding the tariff-related slump earlier this year. \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/chart1-2.png)\n\nIran’s limited response\n-----------------------\n\nThe key highlight last week was Iran’s relatively limited response to US strikes on its nuclear facilities. It struck one US base in neighbouring Qatar, and seemed to give the US and Israel ample warning to limit any damage.\n\nTrump called it a “weak response” and markets agreed that Iran seemed to want to end hostilities quickly rather than escalate them. Former Prime Minister Paul Keating might have likened it to being hit with a wet lettuce.\n\nEither way, there’s now a shaky ceasefire holding between all parties with some talks set to begin. Oil prices dropped 12% last week as a result. Nothing to see here: let’s move on.\n\nPowell testifies to Congress\n----------------------------\n\nAnother highlight was US Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s testimony before Congress. As expected, Powell played a straight bat – suggesting the Fed would wait to see the impact of tariffs on inflation before contemplating a rate cut. With economic activity still holding up and core inflation still above 2%, that’s fair enough, despite Trump’s protestations! That would seem to rule out a July rate cut, although keeps September in play.  \n\nIn terms of economic data, a downward revision to Q1 US GDP (the economy is contracting at a -0.5% annualised rate versus the previous read of -0.2%) perversely boosted stocks on the view it increased the chance of Fed rate cuts. Markets also weren’t fazed on Friday by a slightly higher than expected 0.2% gain in the May core consumption price deflator, which lifted the annual rate to 2.7% from 2.6%.    \n\nOn the policy front, the US agreed to remove extra taxes on G7 companies operating stateside (under section 899 of the Big Beautiful Bill) in exchange for US firms being exempted from the minimum global tax previously agreed by developed countries. Seems fair right?\n\nTrump also cut off trade talks with Canada, complaining about the latter’s plans to impose a revenue tax on digital companies.  \n\nAll up, the trade/tariff saga continues to simmer in the background. Markets are drawing hope from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s regular calming announcements and, ultimately, a view that “[Trump always chickens out](https://www.betashares.com.au/insights/taco-trade/)“.  \n\nGlobal week ahead\n-----------------\n\nThere’s a smattering of key US data this week, with the highlight being US payrolls on Friday. All are expected to show that the US labour force has downshifted a little but is still holding up reasonably well.\n\nEmployment is expected to rise by a firm 120k, with the unemployment rate lifting to 4.3% from 4.2%. There are also job openings data and manufacturing and service sector surveys to come. \n\nGlobal market trends\n--------------------\n\nThe main trend of note over recent weeks has been the rebound in US/growth/technology relative performance, in line with the market bounce back since early April. Despite the risk-on tone, small caps are still refusing to outperform.\n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/chart2-2.png)\n\nAustralian week in review\n-------------------------\n\nLocal stocks only managed a 0.1% gain last week, despite the strength in global markets and good news on the inflation front. Most sectors were down apart from financials, which lifted a further 1.8%.\n\nIn line with the US dollar’s decline, the Australian dollar continued to rebound, with bond yields and iron ore prices seemingly in a choppy gradual downtrend.  \n\n![](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/chart3-2.png)\n\nOf course, the local highlight last week was the May monthly CPI report, which revealed a large drop in trimmed-mean annual inflation from 2.8% to 2.4%. Markets leapt on the result, pricing in a July rate cut with near-certainty. \n\n**I’m still not so sure**, with recent monthly CPI volatility suggesting we should not place too much weight on one monthly number. With the real economy holding up, I can’t see the hurry to cut rates – and still anticipate the RBA will await confirmation of low inflation in the more reliable quarterly CPI report in late July before cutting rates in August. Further confirmation of a still-solid labour market came with a 2.9% gain in job vacancies in the three months to May. \n\nIndeed, it would be embarrassing for the RBA to cut rates on July 8 only to see monthly and quarterly inflation bounce back big time in the quarterly report a few weeks later. We’ll see!\n\nLocal data this week includes house prices and retail spending. Retail spending has so far remained relatively subdued despite RBA rate cuts, while house prices have already started to firm up again.  \n\n**Have a great week!**","style":"article","enable_image_popup":true},{"id":1786,"__component":"content.spacer","size":"large","size_web":"large"},{"id":1391,"__component":"content.markdown","body":"\nBetashares Capital Limited (ABN 78 139 566 868 AFSL 341181) (Betashares) is the responsible entity and issuer of the Betashares Funds.\n\nBefore making an investment decision, read the relevant Product Disclosure Statement, available from this website (www.betashares.com.au) or by calling 1300 487 577, and consider whether the product is right for you.

But it’s really the way you combine saving and investing which can have a powerful effect on your wealth.\n\nSaving typically results in earning a lower return but with limited risk. In contrast, investing allows you the opportunity to earn a higher return, but you take on the risk of loss in order to do so.\n\nWhile saving and investing both involve setting money aside to save for the future, there are some key differences to understand.\n\nIf you were to keep your money in a piggy bank and not invest, you’d never have more money than what you’ve stashed away yourself. And if you were to keep your money in a bank with low interest, it will generally only grow by a fairly low margin.\n\nThe goal of investing is to make more money than you originally put towards the investment.\n\n\n| **Feature**                      | **Saving**                                                                                                         | **Investing**                                                                                                                     |\n|---------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| **Term**                         | Short term                                                                                                         | Long-term                                                                                                                         |\n|                                 | Typically for smaller, shorter-term goals<br> like saving for a purchase or for emergencies                             | Investing may help you reach long-term goals, <br>such as paying for a child’s education, starting a business<br> or planning for retirement |\n| **Access <br>to Funds**              | Ready access to cash                                                                                               | Longer wait to access invested funds                                                                                              |\n|                                 | A savings account gives you access <br>to cash when you need it                                                        | When you invest, it can take a few more days to<br> access your money, in the process of selling<br> your shares and receiving the cash – also known <br>as ‘liquidating your assets’ – compared to a savings account |\n| **Risk**                         | Involves minimal risk                                                                                              | Always involves risk                                                                                                              |\n|                                 | Savings – in cash under your mattress or<br> in a bank – are sometimes guaranteed, <br>while investments are not             | Investing doesn’t guarantee a return, and it is possible<br> to lose some or all of the funds invested                                 |\n\nThe numbers are pretty stark when you compare saving with investing over many years.\n\n**Saving vs investing - How do the numbers stack up?**\n\n![image-1](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Lesson1_18k-copy_442x353_v2.png)\n\n**$10,000 in savings over 30 years**\n\nIf you had $10,000 saved in a bank account earning 2% interest per annum over 30 years, it would grow to $18,113.62 – that’s only $8,113.62 earned.\n\n\n![image-2](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Lesson1_100k-442x353_v2.png)\n\n**$10,000 invested over 30 years**\n\nA $10,000 investment that earns 8% per annum over 30 years will grow to $100,626.57 – multiplying more than five times over.\n\n\n>Hypothetical example provided for illustrative purposes only. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. Not a recommendation to make any investment or adopt any investment strategy.\n\n**Compound interest - the ‘Eighth Wonder of the World’**\n\nThe main reason for the dramatic difference to the example above is the rate at which interest compounds. Compounding is one of the fundamental components of wealth creation and a phenomenon famously coined “the eighth wonder of the world”.\n\nYou can think of compound interest as a self-fulfilling cycle, where your investment earns interest, and then your interest earns interest, creating a snowball effect.\n\nCompounding means that your wealth can grow faster over time, because you’re not only getting returns on your initial investment, you’re also getting returns on your returns.\n\nWhile any investor can take advantage of compounding, the greatest benefit goes to those who get started early. The best way to explain this is through a simple case study.\n\nAs you can see in the hypothetical on the right-hand side – delaying the start of your investment journey by 10 years could make quite the difference in the world of compounding.\n\nHolly has only contributed $12,000 more to her investing ‘pot’ (10 years x 12 months x $100) – but ends up with more than double Ben’s final nest egg.\n\nIf you give your money enough time to compound and add to it along the way, it can grow into much greater wealth.\n\n![Eight wonder of the world - compounding](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/ETF-_Graphs_221205_Investment-101-8th-wonder-copy_600x338.png)\n\n**So when to save and when to invest?**\n\nThere is a time and place for both, so you should base your decision on your situation. A rule of thumb suggests your decision should come down to two things – time and risk.\n\nIf you think you need ready access to your money within a couple of years – like for a house deposit or your own business – it may make more sense to save. This is because if the sharemarket falls, an investment may not have enough time to recover before you need the funds.\n\nBut if you have a longer period of time before you might need to draw on your money – such as three or more years – then investing may make more sense.\n\nGenerally, the longer your timeline, the more important it is to consider investing vs saving.","length":"3:52","side_label":"1","watch_key":"investing_course_1","cover":{"data":{"id":9,"attributes":{"name":"player.png","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":520,"height":300,"formats":{"small":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_player_58b1499835.png","hash":"small_player_58b1499835","mime":"image/png","name":"small_player.png","path":null,"size":88.26,"width":500,"height":288},"thumbnail":{"ext":".png","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_player_58b1499835.png","hash":"thumbnail_player_58b1499835","mime":"image/png","name":"thumbnail_player.png","path":null,"size":26.87,"width":245,"height":141}},"hash":"player_58b1499835","ext":".png","mime":"image/png","size":21.83,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/player_58b1499835.png","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-09-19T11:40:25.898Z","updatedAt":"2023-09-19T11:40:25.898Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":4,"attributes":{"title":"What to consider before investing","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKgIXdgYUY8","slug":"investing-course-what-to-consider-before-investing","subtitle":"Lesson 2","createdAt":"2023-09-24T06:05:17.050Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T22:20:34.235Z","publishedAt":"2023-09-24T06:05:19.762Z","body":"Before you start investing, you should ask yourself a couple of important questions.\n\n**1. Do you have high interest debt such as a credit card balance?**\n\nIf the answer is yes, you’re probably not yet in a position to invest. Remember that borrowing money isn’t free, so anytime you take on debt, you will pay for doing so.\n\n**2. Do you have an emergency fund?**\n\nIf you haven’t built up an emergency fund yet, you’ll want to do that before you dive into investing. Most experts suggest having three to six months’ worth of your regular expenses set aside in an emergency fund. These funds are there to help you in case life takes a turn for the worse, whether it be losing your job, sickness or another situation.\n\nThere are other important considerations once you’ve made the decision to invest.

Different types of investments or ‘asset classes’ have varying levels of risk and therefore return.\n\n- Equities (also known as shares)\n- Commodities (e.g. gold or oil)\n- Property\n- Hybrids (a combination of bonds and equities)\n- Fixed income or fixed interest (also known as bonds)\n- Cash\n- Cryptocurrency (also known as digital assets)\n\n[Explore the types of investments and asset classes](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/)\n\n\n**How do investors decide between growth and defensive assets?**\n\nThe balance between growth investments and defensive investments is likely to change as you grow older and your financial circumstances change.\n\nInvestors looking for capital gains are likely to invest more of their portfolio in companies that tend to use their profits to grow their business, rather than paying those profits out in dividends.\nTechnology companies, for example, typically retain most of their profits to reinvest in their business, and their returns tend to be more in the form of capital gains than income.\n\nInvestors seeking income traditionally have turned to [fixed income](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/cash-fixed-income-etfs/), such as bonds and [hybrids](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/hybrid-funds/), and also to [high-yielding equities](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/income-equity-investments/). Banking stocks, for example, are often favoured by income investors for the high dividends they historically have paid.\n\n\n**The risk/return spectrum**\n\n![Risk return spectrum](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/ETF-_Graphs_221205_Investment-101-Risk-vs-Return_800px.png)\n\nSource: Betashares. Provided for illustrative purposes only. Not a recommendation to make any investment or adopt any investment strategy.\n\nRisk and return characteristics also differ within asset classes. For example, within the equities asset class, different sectors have different risk/return characteristics.\n\nTechnology companies, for example, are typically more volatile than companies selling consumer staples, and a speculative mining stock will have higher risk than a stock in one of the big four banks.\nETFs are a cost-effective and convenient way to tap into all asset classes – across the full risk and reward spectrum – offering you exposure not only to equities, but also to cash, bonds, hybrids and even commodities in one trade.\n\n**Diversification - don’t put all your eggs in one basket**\n\nDiversifying your investments – across country, region, industry and size – helps spread the risk. Whilst some investments may fall in value, others may rise and therefore somewhat balance out the fall overall across your investment portfolio.\n\nSharemarkets are fast paced, and so it can be difficult to stay updated on market movements and make decisions on the best performing individual investments at any particular point in time.\n\nThis is one of the reasons for choosing ETFs over individual shares – there is instant diversification. When you buy an ETF that tracks a market index, it gives you exposure to all the companies in that index in a single trade.

With these types of investment your aim may be to earn an income from investments during retirement when you stop receiving a regular income from working.\n\n# Risk profiles\n\nWhile there are ‘standard’ asset allocation splits based on these broad profiles, every investor is different, and you may need to adjust weightings from the below.\n\n**Conservative risk profile**\n\nA conservative investment portfolio typically is made up of around 80% defensive assets and 20% growth assets, and a timeframe of around 3 to 5 years.\n\nIf you’re a conservative investor, you typically are seeking to protect your capital and are comfortable with moderate returns, rather than taking on higher risk for potentially higher reward.\n\n**Balanced risk profile**\n\nA balanced investment portfolio typically is made up of around 50% defensive assets and 50% growth assets, with an investment timeframe of around 5 to 7 years.\n\nIf you’re a balanced investor, you are more willing to accept some volatility in the value of your investments, as a trade-off for increased potential returns.\n\n**High growth risk profile**\n\nA high growth investment portfolio typically is made up of 90-100% growth assets, with an investment timeframe of around 7 years or more.\n\nIf you’re an investor seeking growth, you are willing to accept a high level of variability in investment returns, with the higher risks associated with investments that have the potential to produce higher returns.\n\n","length":"2:41","side_label":"5","watch_key":"investing_course_5","cover":{"data":{"id":357,"attributes":{"name":"Screen-Shot-2023-02-17-at-11.10.50-am-1400x791.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1400,"height":791,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_Screen_Shot_2023_02_17_at_11_10_50_am_1400x791_0f8209f610.jpg","hash":"large_Screen_Shot_2023_02_17_at_11_10_50_am_1400x791_0f8209f610","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_Screen-Shot-2023-02-17-at-11.10.50-am-1400x791.jpg","path":null,"size":32.27,"width":1000,"height":565},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_Screen_Shot_2023_02_17_at_11_10_50_am_1400x791_0f8209f610.jpg","hash":"small_Screen_Shot_2023_02_17_at_11_10_50_am_1400x791_0f8209f610","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_Screen-Shot-2023-02-17-at-11.10.50-am-1400x791.jpg","path":null,"size":12.03,"width":500,"height":283},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_Screen_Shot_2023_02_17_at_11_10_50_am_1400x791_0f8209f610.jpg","hash":"medium_Screen_Shot_2023_02_17_at_11_10_50_am_1400x791_0f8209f610","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_Screen-Shot-2023-02-17-at-11.10.50-am-1400x791.jpg","path":null,"size":21.27,"width":750,"height":424},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_Screen_Shot_2023_02_17_at_11_10_50_am_1400x791_0f8209f610.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_Screen_Shot_2023_02_17_at_11_10_50_am_1400x791_0f8209f610","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_Screen-Shot-2023-02-17-at-11.10.50-am-1400x791.jpg","path":null,"size":4.09,"width":245,"height":138}},"hash":"Screen_Shot_2023_02_17_at_11_10_50_am_1400x791_0f8209f610","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":50.19,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/Screen_Shot_2023_02_17_at_11_10_50_am_1400x791_0f8209f610.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T20:46:57.066Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T20:46:57.066Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":9,"attributes":{"title":"Setting investment goals","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pj8kPQKMhBg","slug":"investing-setting-investment-goals","subtitle":"Lesson 6","createdAt":"2023-10-05T20:52:23.821Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:21:52.202Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T20:52:26.589Z","body":"Why do you want to invest? It’s important to be clear on your goals as this will help you determine how to invest.\n\nThe reasons people want to invest can be broadly categorised as time-based (which we already discussed in Lesson 4) or goal-based.\n\n**Time-based, such as to grow wealth over time**\n\nTime-based investing refers to the broad goal of building wealth over time. Such as saving for retirement.\n\nTime-based investors typically have a long-term approach to investing, which means they intend to hold onto investments for a period of years.\n\nThis is sometimes referred to as a ‘buy and hold’ strategy. On the other hand, goal-based investing has the objective of attaining a specific life goal, such as saving for a deposit to buy a property.\n\n**Goal-based investing**\n\nGoal-based investing can either be short-term or long-term. A short-term investment is one which is generally held for around one to two years.\n\nIt’s important to be clear on your investment goals, as these will largely direct your investment strategy. For example, are you looking for capital growth to help you buy a home, or do you want to establish an income stream perhaps during retirement?\n\nExchange traded funds (ETFs) can be a good way to gain exposure to either growth or income investments, and some can offer diversified exposure too. For example, instead of investing in a single stock, a growth-oriented investor could choose to invest in a basket of stocks.\n\nFor example, through the Betashares Australia 200 ETF (ASX: A200) or the Betashares S&P 500 Equal Weight ETF (ASX: QUS). This means that in a single trade, the investor gains exposure to a diversified portfolio of Australian or US listed companies.\n\n**Setting invest goals - and sticking to your plan**\n\nHere’s an example to illustrate the importance of sticking to your investment goals (and thus your overall approach to investing).\n\nHolly’s medium to long-term investing goal is to save for a house deposit. With this in mind, she decides to invest for growth, choosing established listed companies both internationally and domestically.\n\nAfter careful research and investing in a diversified share portfolio, she’s grown her portfolio to be worth $70,000. However, a friend of hers says she’s made profits much faster in her portfolio, and shares her latest speculative stock tip.\n\nHolly decides to sell $10,000 from her portfolio to invest in her friend’s tip. But the company falls sharply, and she ends up losing $8,000, impacting her main investment goal.\n\nIt’s very rare for people to get rich ‘overnight’, which is why it’s important to remain focused on your goals, grow your wealth steadily over the long term – and not to get distracted by short-term opportunities. If an opportunity seems ‘too good to be true’, it probably is.","length":"3:07","side_label":"6","watch_key":"investing_course_6","cover":{"data":{"id":358,"attributes":{"name":"lesson6-1400x686.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1400,"height":686,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_lesson6_1400x686_a365306ff4.jpg","hash":"large_lesson6_1400x686_a365306ff4","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_lesson6-1400x686.jpg","path":null,"size":27.69,"width":1000,"height":490},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_lesson6_1400x686_a365306ff4.jpg","hash":"small_lesson6_1400x686_a365306ff4","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_lesson6-1400x686.jpg","path":null,"size":10.39,"width":500,"height":245},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_lesson6_1400x686_a365306ff4.jpg","hash":"medium_lesson6_1400x686_a365306ff4","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_lesson6-1400x686.jpg","path":null,"size":18.24,"width":750,"height":368},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_lesson6_1400x686_a365306ff4.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_lesson6_1400x686_a365306ff4","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_lesson6-1400x686.jpg","path":null,"size":3.59,"width":245,"height":120}},"hash":"lesson6_1400x686_a365306ff4","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":43.93,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/lesson6_1400x686_a365306ff4.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T20:51:10.721Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T20:51:10.721Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":10,"attributes":{"title":"Investment strategies","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kYx3vTDbFQ","slug":"investing-investment-strategies","subtitle":"Lesson 7","createdAt":"2023-10-05T20:59:02.496Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-17T08:01:57.971Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T20:59:05.275Z","body":"Here, we explain a few different ways you can approach investing. You may find that your investment style is a mix of the below, especially over time as your financial goals change, as you grow older – or as you learn more about investing.\n\n### Active vs Passive\n\nThere are two main philosophies when it comes to investing. The approach that resonates with you is likely to become the bedrock of your investment strategy.\n\nThere’s no ‘right or wrong’ approach, and you can incorporate both within your overall investment portfolio. Ultimately, the approach you choose may come down to a few things:\n\n- Your time and dedication to investing, or how ‘hands on’ you want to be\n- How much you’re willing to spend on fees\n- Your tolerance to risk\n\n### Active investing\n\nActive investors try to identify good companies (or other assets) to invest in, with the aim of outperforming a broad market index, such as the ASX 200, the S&P 500 or the Nasdaq.\n\n_Stock-picking is more difficult than it may seem_\n\nThis approach requires lots of research and confidence when making investment decisions, and typically involves higher risk. This is why some active investors choose to pay the ‘experts’ – professional fund managers to actively manage their investments on their behalf.\n\nActively managed funds typically have relatively high management fees, sometimes with an additional performance fee for those years when they outperform the benchmark index.\n\nOver the years, fees can really eat into investor returns.\n\nThe potential for actively managed funds to outperform the market comes down largely to the skill of the fund’s investment manager, and to the fees they charge.\n\n### Passive investing\n\nBeing an active investor, and choosing investments like individual stocks, can be overwhelming. The seemingly endless opportunities and the pressure to ‘make the right choice’ can make for ‘analysis paralysis’.\n\nSo, if you want to invest your money in stocks, but don’t have the expertise or time to select specific companies yourself, or the budget to spend more on fees for an active fund manager, passive investing – usually by investing in an ETF – is a popular option.\n\nPassive investing is often seen as a cost-effective way to invest, and tends to suit those who would rather take more of a ‘set and forget’ approach and have a lower risk tolerance than active investors.\n\nA passive investor typically has a buy and hold mentality, trading minimally with the goal of building their wealth over the long-term and ignoring short-term setbacks or market downturns. Their aim is to track the performance of a market index in anticipation that their portfolio will appreciate over time.\n\n[Learn more about passive ETFs](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/passive-etfs-passive-investing-betashares/)\n\n# Summary\n## Active investing\n\n- Seek to beat a market index\n- Pick investments based on potential returns i.e. ‘stock picking’\n- Generally higher fees\n- Generally trades more frequently\n\n## Passive investing*\n\n- Seek to mirror the returns of a market index (before fees and expenses)\n- Replicate the company holdings within a market index i.e. buying the whole sharemarket, or a specific part of the sharemarket\n- Generally lower fees\n- Generally trades less frequently\n\n# Which approach works better?\nCommon sense dictates that if you pay more for a service, it should be better. Therefore, if you pay an active manager more than a passive manager, they should provide you with better returns, right? Well, maybe not.\n\nIn 1973, Princeton University professor Burton Malkiel claimed in his bestselling book, A Random Walk Down Wall Street, that “A blindfolded monkey throwing darts at a newspaper’s financial pages could select a portfolio that would do just as well as one carefully selected by experts.” So essentially, a chimpanzee could select stocks just as well as even a professional fund manager picking stocks.\n\nMany investing greats such as Warren Buffet have recommended passive funds, like ETFs, over active funds – it’s arguably better bang for your buck.\n\n\n> “In my view, for most people, the best thing to do is owning the S&P 500 index fund,” said Buffett at his 2020 shareholder meeting.\n\nUltimately, different investors will have different views on the philosophy, but both active and passive investing can have a place in an investor’s portfolio.\n\nFor example, you may choose to invest the bulk of your funds in an ETF tracking a broad market index, such as the S&P/ASX200, or the Nasdaq 100, and allocate a smaller amount to individual shares of your choice that you believe have strong performance potential.\n\n# Other investing strategies\n\n### Growth\n\nA growth investor’s goal is to profit from the increasing share price of companies with fast-growing revenues or profits. Investors expect the share price to rise as profits rise and reap the reward when they sell their shares.\n\n[Explore Australian share ETFs](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/australian-etfs/)\n\n[Explore International share ETFs](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/international-etfs/)\n\n[Explore investing in megatrends with ETFs](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/thematic-etfs/)\n\n### Responsible investing\n\nResponsible investing means investing in companies that demonstrate positive environmental and social impact characteristics.\n\nResponsible investors tend to screen out companies that don’t align with their ethics, such as those involved in weapons, tobacco, alcohol and gambling. Or, they may positively screen for companies involved in renewable energy, climate change impact or those making a difference in gender diversity.\n\n[Explore responsible investing funds](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/ethical-etfs/)\n\n### Income\n\nAn income investor’s goal is to create an income stream from their portfolio. They look for companies that pay high, regular dividends. Income investors also typically have investment allocations in fixed income (bonds).\n\nInvestors expect to earn a return from dividends but may not expect big capital gains.\n\n[Explore income funds](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/income-equity-investments/)\n\n### Value\n\nValue investors seek to maximise returns by finding shares in the market that they consider to be undervalued.\n\nValue investing requires a lot of research and careful decision making – but the effort can be rewarding.","length":"4:29","side_label":"7","watch_key":"investing_course_7","cover":{"data":{"id":359,"attributes":{"name":"lesson-7-1.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1093,"height":611,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_lesson_7_1_5a9720c5c2.jpg","hash":"large_lesson_7_1_5a9720c5c2","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_lesson-7-1.jpg","path":null,"size":28.23,"width":1000,"height":559},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_lesson_7_1_5a9720c5c2.jpg","hash":"small_lesson_7_1_5a9720c5c2","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_lesson-7-1.jpg","path":null,"size":9.93,"width":500,"height":280},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_lesson_7_1_5a9720c5c2.jpg","hash":"medium_lesson_7_1_5a9720c5c2","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_lesson-7-1.jpg","path":null,"size":18.67,"width":750,"height":419},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_lesson_7_1_5a9720c5c2.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_lesson_7_1_5a9720c5c2","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_lesson-7-1.jpg","path":null,"size":3.87,"width":245,"height":137}},"hash":"lesson_7_1_5a9720c5c2","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":28.41,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/lesson_7_1_5a9720c5c2.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T20:53:29.412Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T20:53:29.412Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":11,"attributes":{"title":"Understanding fees","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdqeYis446c","slug":"investing-understanding-fees","subtitle":"Lesson 8","createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:02:39.553Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T22:29:52.693Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T21:02:42.126Z","body":"Every investment has a cost, even if you don’t realise you’re paying it. When you invest in an ETF or a managed fund, fees go to fund providers. They’re a set cost, as an annual percentage and deducted automatically. We explain more below.\n\nOn face value, seemingly small differences in management fees may not appear to matter all that much, but they can have a significant effect on returns over time, compounding along with your investment returns.\n\nOne of the factors driving the increasing popularity of ETFs is their generally lower cost compared to many traditional actively managed funds. Because most ETFs are passive investments, they tend not to charge the higher active management fees charged by traditional managed funds.\n\n**Painting the picture in numbers**\n\n![graph showing performance of a200](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/ETF-_Graphs_221205_Lesson-1-ASX200-performance_800px.png)\n\n_Illustrative only.

Actual performance of A200 and the Australian sharemarket may differ._\n\nThis chart compares the investment return of a low-fee passive ETF (A200 Australia 200 ETF ) with an actively managed fund with a similar investment strategy (Australian shares), assuming:\n\n- pre-fee returns of 5% p.a. for both funds\n- a starting balance of $10,000\n- A200’s current management fee of 0.04% p.a.\n- an average active management fee of 1.26% p.a.\n\nOver 40 years, the lower-fee ETF investment would grow to be worth $69,335, compared to the higher-fee managed fund investment value of $43,436.\n\nThe low-fee option would be worth around $25,900, or 59%, more than the high-fee option after 40 years.\n\n**How do ETF management costs work?**\n\nETF investors don’t separately pay management fees to the ETF manager (e.g. from their bank account). Instead, the fees and costs are reflected and accrued in the Net Asset Value (NAV) of the ETF.\n\n**Fees in action**\n\nFor example, the A200 Australia 200 ETF charges annual management costs of 0.04%*.\n\nIf you invested $10,000 in A200 over one year, assuming the underlying value of the fund’s holdings did not change, your investment would incur total management fees of $4.\n\nEach day, approximately 1 cents in fees would be accrued ($4/365 days), and then deducted on a monthly basis, so after one year your investment would be worth around $9,996.","length":"2:12","side_label":"8","watch_key":"investing_course_8","cover":{"data":{"id":360,"attributes":{"name":"lesson8-1-1400x767.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1400,"height":767,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_lesson8_1_1400x767_629ecddf72.jpg","hash":"large_lesson8_1_1400x767_629ecddf72","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_lesson8-1-1400x767.jpg","path":null,"size":24.77,"width":1000,"height":548},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_lesson8_1_1400x767_629ecddf72.jpg","hash":"small_lesson8_1_1400x767_629ecddf72","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_lesson8-1-1400x767.jpg","path":null,"size":9.28,"width":500,"height":274},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_lesson8_1_1400x767_629ecddf72.jpg","hash":"medium_lesson8_1_1400x767_629ecddf72","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_lesson8-1-1400x767.jpg","path":null,"size":16.21,"width":750,"height":411},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_lesson8_1_1400x767_629ecddf72.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_lesson8_1_1400x767_629ecddf72","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_lesson8-1-1400x767.jpg","path":null,"size":3.44,"width":245,"height":134}},"hash":"lesson8_1_1400x767_629ecddf72","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":38.87,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/lesson8_1_1400x767_629ecddf72.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:00:04.748Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:00:04.748Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":12,"attributes":{"title":"How to build a portfolio","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrmoKZsLzuY","slug":"investing-how-to-build-a-portfolio","subtitle":"Lesson 9","createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:07:12.014Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T22:32:58.344Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T21:07:14.532Z","body":"By this stage, you should have a grasp of the following:\n\n- Saving vs investing\n- An emergency fund and a handle on debt\n- Your approach – investing (long-term) or trading (short-term)\n- Your risk tolerance\n- Your investment goals, such as growth or income\n- The types of investments/asset classes to consider based on your risk tolerance and goals\n- An understanding of investing fees\n\nAll of the above are key ingredients to mix together to build your portfolio. So how do you go about this?\n\nOne popular approach is the ‘core/satellite’ strategy.\n\nA core/satellite portfolio means investing the majority of your money in stable, lower-risk investments – the core – and investing less of your money in smaller, higher risk (and potentially higher reward) investments to complement these holdings – the satellites.\n\n![Core and satellite image](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/ETF-_Graphs_221205_Lesson-6-Core-satellite-strategy_v2_800px.png)\n\nYou can think of the diagram above like the solar system. Your core is the sun and all the planets are your satellites.\n\nThe goal of the core/satellite portfolio is that none of the investments in the satellites are big enough that, if things go badly with any of them, they will greatly impact the overall value of your portfolio.\n\n**What could your core include?**\n\n- Australian equities\n- International equities\n- Fixed income\n- Cash\n\nMost commonly, for the core, you could buy several broad exposure ETFs. ETFs are a great way to build a core/satellite portfolio because they typically offer diversified exposure at low cost. For example, the A200 Australia 200 ETF  provides exposure to the 200 largest companies on the ASX.\n\nYour core could also include for example a diversified fund that provides exposure to a particular country or region, such as the S&P 500.\n\n**What could your satellites include?**\n\n- [Sector-specific](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/global-sectors/) or [thematic ETFs](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/thematic-etfs/) are popular, with options including [technology](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/technology-etfs/), [healthcare](https://www.betashares.com.au/fund/global-healthcare-etf-currency-hedged/), [climate change innovation](https://www.betashares.com.au/fund/climate-change-innovation-etf/), [cybersecurity](https://www.betashares.com.au/fund/global-cybersecurity-etf/), [esports](https://www.betashares.com.au/fund/video-games-and-esports-etf/), [e-commerce](https://www.betashares.com.au/fund/online-retail-and-ecommerce-etf/)\n- Individual stocks. These could be small or mid-cap companies, if you have many of the large-cap companies already covered in your core\n\nRemember to choose your investments based on your goals and risk tolerance. We cover this in Lesson 4 – Types of investments and risk vs return.\n\n It’s also worth noting that many people build an entire portfolio of ETFs, without selecting any individual stocks.\n\n[How to use ETFs for asset allocation](https://www.betashares.com.au/education/how-to-use-etfs-for-complete-asset-allocation/)\n\n[Explore our diversified ETFs](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/portfolio-diversification/)","length":"3:08","side_label":"9","watch_key":"investing_course_9","cover":{"data":{"id":361,"attributes":{"name":"lesson8-1-1400x767.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1400,"height":767,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_lesson8_1_1400x767_803c8f54c7.jpg","hash":"large_lesson8_1_1400x767_803c8f54c7","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_lesson8-1-1400x767.jpg","path":null,"size":24.77,"width":1000,"height":548},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_lesson8_1_1400x767_803c8f54c7.jpg","hash":"small_lesson8_1_1400x767_803c8f54c7","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_lesson8-1-1400x767.jpg","path":null,"size":9.28,"width":500,"height":274},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_lesson8_1_1400x767_803c8f54c7.jpg","hash":"medium_lesson8_1_1400x767_803c8f54c7","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_lesson8-1-1400x767.jpg","path":null,"size":16.21,"width":750,"height":411},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_lesson8_1_1400x767_803c8f54c7.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_lesson8_1_1400x767_803c8f54c7","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_lesson8-1-1400x767.jpg","path":null,"size":3.44,"width":245,"height":134}},"hash":"lesson8_1_1400x767_803c8f54c7","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":38.87,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/lesson8_1_1400x767_803c8f54c7.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:05:56.442Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:05:56.442Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":13,"attributes":{"title":"How often should you invest?","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yT8qdinbT3c","slug":"investing-how-often-should-you-invest","subtitle":"Lesson 10","createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:11:35.786Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T22:34:06.042Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T21:11:38.388Z","body":"One golden rule of investing is putting your money to work as soon as possible. An investment needs time to grow, so the longer your money is in the market, the more chance you have of reaching your goals.\n\nInvesting small sums of money regularly is one of the best ways to keep you on track, assisting you to reach your goal faster.\n\n**Dollar cost averaging in action**\n\nLet’s look at a simple example.*\n\n>* Example does not account for any transaction costs, such as brokerage. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance.\n\n![Graph showing example returns](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/ETF-_Graphs_221221_Lesson-10b-copy_800px.jpg)\n\nTake a low cost, index tracking fund, like the A200 Australia 200 ETF .\n\nLet’s pretend it’s the beginning of 2020, and at the end of 2019, you made a New Year’s resolution to start investing in the sharemarket.\n\nYou check your bank account, and you have $12,000 to invest. Looking back over the year you notice the Australian market was up over 23% and has been trending higher for the last few years.\n\nYou’re worried that as markets approach all-time highs, you might be getting in at the top.\n\nRather than trying to pick ‘the best time to invest’, let’s assume you started dollar cost averaging from the first investible day of the year and made the same, equal investment, each month after that.\n\n![Table showing returns](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/ETF-_Graphs_221221_Lesson-10a-narrow-copy_800px.jpg)\n\nContrast that with the result you would have achieved had you invested the entire $12,000 in A200 at the start of the year.\n\nIn this situation, a dollar cost averaging strategy would have produced a better result, with more units purchased, at a lower average cost. More importantly, it avoided the risk of putting all your eggs in one basket in terms of timing.\n\n**Why you should reinvest your dividends (or distributions if you invest in ETFs)\n**\nAnother strategy automatically topping up your investment is opting into a distribution reinvestment plan, (or DRP for short) if you invest in ETFs. Dividends are payments a company makes to share their profits with its investors.\n\n![Graph showign DRP vs without DRP](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Graphs_Lesson-10c-copy_800px.jpg)\n\n_Source: Bloomberg. Hypothetical example provided for illustrative purposes only. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. You cannot invest directly in an index.  Not a recommendation to make any investment or adopt any investment strategy._\n\nWith a DRP, you can increase your investment in a company or fund over time by automatically reinvesting your dividends/distributions. Rather than taking your dividends/distributions in cash, you’ll be using them to buy more shares in the company, or units in the fund.\n\nRemember the concept of compound interest? This chart illustrates the powerful compounding effect that reinvesting dividends can achieve.\n\nIt assumes an investment in a portfolio made up of the S&P/ASX 200 Index constituents (the largest 200 companies in the Australian sharemarket) and shows the returns over the ten years to 30 June 2021, for:\n\n- an investor who participates fully in a DRP, and\n- an investor who takes their dividends in cash\n\nThe investor who participated fully in the DRP would have achieved a return of ~246% over the relevant period on their investment, compared to a ~163% return for the investor who took their dividends in cash.\n\nTo put it in dollar terms, a $10,000 investment made at the start of the relevant period would have been worth $24,625 as at 30 June 2022 with DRP, compared to $16,268 with cash dividends, which is attributed to $3,384 cash dividends and $2,884 capital appreciation, in addition to the $10,000 initial capital outlay.\n\nThe compounding effect is exponential, the impact of which would be exacerbated over a longer period of time.","length":"2:42","side_label":"10","watch_key":"investing_course_10","cover":{"data":{"id":362,"attributes":{"name":"lesson10-1-1400x785.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1400,"height":785,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_lesson10_1_1400x785_f8224bbae1.jpg","hash":"large_lesson10_1_1400x785_f8224bbae1","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_lesson10-1-1400x785.jpg","path":null,"size":39.16,"width":1000,"height":561},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_lesson10_1_1400x785_f8224bbae1.jpg","hash":"small_lesson10_1_1400x785_f8224bbae1","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_lesson10-1-1400x785.jpg","path":null,"size":13.3,"width":500,"height":280},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_lesson10_1_1400x785_f8224bbae1.jpg","hash":"medium_lesson10_1_1400x785_f8224bbae1","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_lesson10-1-1400x785.jpg","path":null,"size":24.5,"width":750,"height":421},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_lesson10_1_1400x785_f8224bbae1.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_lesson10_1_1400x785_f8224bbae1","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_lesson10-1-1400x785.jpg","path":null,"size":4.52,"width":245,"height":137}},"hash":"lesson10_1_1400x785_f8224bbae1","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":64.87,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/lesson10_1_1400x785_f8224bbae1.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:07:47.777Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:07:47.777Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":14,"attributes":{"title":"Portfolio management and tracking","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bioKiFpS6Ko","slug":"investing-portfolio-management-and-tracking","subtitle":"Lesson 11","createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:15:07.976Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T22:34:29.045Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T21:15:12.423Z","body":"Over time, your circumstances will change which may mean your financial goals will change too.\n\nCommon life events that can trigger a change in focus may include:\n\n- Career change, such as starting a new job with a different level of income, or starting a business\n- Expenses change, such as buying or renovating a home or shifting from a double to single income household\n- Family change, such as having children, or having children finish school\n- Retirement, whether it’s planning ahead or entering retirement\n\nRegardless of any major life events, it’s good practice to review your investment portfolio on at least an annual basis. This includes reviewing how you’re invested, what went well and what could have gone better in the past year, so you can determine what the best course of action is now.\n\nWe’ve covered a few crucial elements to consider when it comes to keeping track of your success and managing or [https://www.betashares.com.au/education/six-steps-to-reviewing-your-investment-strategies-and-portfolio/](reviewing your portfolio such as):\n\n1. Have you checked your investment returns?\n2. How is your diversification?\n3. Are you keeping up-to-date with wider influences such as global news and the economy\n4. Are you paying too much in fees?\n5. Are you practising regular investing such as dollar cost averaging?\n6. Are you participating in a Dividend/Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP)?\n\nLet’s now look at portfolio rebalancing, and where to turn for help for your tax requirements.\n\n**What is portfolio rebalancing?**\nAfter investing for a while, with some shares or asset classes performing better than others, you may find your asset allocation mix has diverged from your original plan, changing the risk profile of your portfolio in the process.\n\nRebalancing helps you return to the original asset allocation planned in your investment strategy so that you’re not more exposed to a particular company, industry or asset class than you want to be.\n\nFor some investors, contributing new money to a portfolio may be a better alternative than selling one asset and buying another to rebalance. But an investor later in life, who doesn’t plan on contributing new funds, may prefer to sell overweight assets to rebalance.\n\nRebalancing also gives you the opportunity to sell high and buy low, taking gains from high-performing investments and reinvesting them in areas that have not yet experienced such growth.\n\n**Here’s an example**\n\nSay the original target asset allocation for a growth-focused investor is 80% stocks and 20% bonds. If stocks perform well during a given period, the stock weighting of the portfolio might increase to 90%. The investor may then decide to sell some stocks and buy bonds to get the portfolio back to the original target allocation of 80/20.\n\nEven if you see yourself as a set and forget investor, it is important to still check your investments are still on track to achieve your financial goals.\n\n","length":"3:21","side_label":"11","watch_key":"investing_course_11","cover":{"data":{"id":363,"attributes":{"name":"lesson11-1.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1357,"height":691,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_lesson11_1_991a106597.jpg","hash":"large_lesson11_1_991a106597","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_lesson11-1.jpg","path":null,"size":22.23,"width":1000,"height":509},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_lesson11_1_991a106597.jpg","hash":"small_lesson11_1_991a106597","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_lesson11-1.jpg","path":null,"size":7.67,"width":500,"height":255},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_lesson11_1_991a106597.jpg","hash":"medium_lesson11_1_991a106597","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_lesson11-1.jpg","path":null,"size":14.12,"width":750,"height":382},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_lesson11_1_991a106597.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_lesson11_1_991a106597","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_lesson11-1.jpg","path":null,"size":2.83,"width":245,"height":124}},"hash":"lesson11_1_991a106597","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":30.94,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/lesson11_1_991a106597.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:12:47.902Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:12:47.902Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":15,"attributes":{"title":"Key takeaways","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1p7Ozl0Maw","slug":"investing-course-key-takeaways","subtitle":"Lesson 12","createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:18:01.386Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:18:06.670Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T21:18:06.665Z","body":"As we come to the end of this course, let’s go over the important key takeaways from the lessons.\n\n1.  Investing means putting your cash to work, growing your money beyond your regular income, with the aim to increase your wealth over the long term.\n\n2. Before making any moves, consider where you stand financially. Have you got any debt? Have you got an emergency fund?\n\n3. Be clear on your financial goals. Couple these with your time horizon and risk tolerance. This will determine where and how you should invest your money. In a nutshell, higher risk tolerance equals more equities and fewer bonds.\n\n4. There are many different ways to invest, including taking a passive or active approach. Many investors hold ETFs due to their generally low fees, convenience to invest in different markets, and to easily diversify their portfolio by accessing a basket of shares within one trade.\n\n5.  Create your own universe by building your portfolio like the solar system, using the core-satellite approach, mixing and matching ETFs which offer broad market exposures for your core, and niche markets or themes via ETFs or individual shares as your satellites.\n\n6. Benchmark your shares or ETF’s performance against market indices to keep track of your performance and to decide when you might want to buy or sell your investments or readjust your allocations to best suit your investing goals.\n\n7. Stay consistent and remember the magic of compounding with dollar cost averaging and reinvesting your distributions if you’re invested in ETFs.\n\n8. Diversification and rebalancing can help you smooth your portfolio’s returns and keep your risk level on track.

For the investor just starting out, they make it possible to gain diversified exposure to a range of asset classes, including shares, fixed income and commodities, both in Australia and internationally, without having to commit a substantial amount of money.\n\nWhether your investment strategy is time-based or goal-based, ETFs can be a good way to gain exposure to either growth, income or defensive investments, or for tactical exposure to a particular theme, region, country, currency and more.\n\n**How ETFs work**\n\nWhen you invest in an ETF, you gain exposure to a fund that holds a collection of investments in its portfolio.\n\nUnlike buying a single asset, such as a stock, an ETF provides access to a portfolio of assets in one trade which helps to add instant diversification to a portfolio.\n\n![Image showing etf basket](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/ETF101-Course-website-assets_L1_ETFportfolio-assets-1-1400x1068.png)\n\n**ETFs track market indexes**\n\nETFs enable you to invest in a broad range of shares in one trade that generally aims to closely track the performance of a market index.\n\nA market index typically tracks the performance of a group of shares, which represents either the overall market, or a specific sector or segment of the market, like technology or retail companies.\n\nYou’re likely to hear most about the S&P/ASX 200, the S&P 500, the Nasdaq-100, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average. These indices are generally used as proxies for the performance of the market overall, essentially providing a ‘pulse check’ on what the broader market is doing.\n\nThe value of the ETF goes up or down with the performance of the companies (or other assets) that make up the index.\n\nThe A200 Australia 200 ETF is an example of an ETF that tracks the performance of an overall sharemarket.\n\nA200 aims to track the performance of an index consisting of the 200 largest companies by market capitalisation listed on the ASX (before fees and expenses).\n\nNow, let’s look at an example of an ETF tracking a specific segment of the sharemarket.\n\nThe DRUG Global Healthcare ETF – Currency Hedged provides exposure to a more specific sector by tracking an index consisting of world’s leading healthcare companies.\n\nHere’s an example of an ETF that aims to track the performance of an index tracking a specific theme.\n\nThe DRIV Electric Vehicles and Future Mobility ETF offers exposure to an index comprising of 50 of the world’s leading automotive technology companies (before fees and expenses).","length":"3:01","side_label":"1","watch_key":"etf_course_1","cover":{"data":{"id":372,"attributes":{"name":"ELELesson6-2400x1350.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":2400,"height":1350,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_ELE_Lesson6_2400x1350_13f79fbfee.jpg","hash":"large_ELE_Lesson6_2400x1350_13f79fbfee","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_ELELesson6-2400x1350.jpg","path":null,"size":27.95,"width":1000,"height":563},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_ELE_Lesson6_2400x1350_13f79fbfee.jpg","hash":"small_ELE_Lesson6_2400x1350_13f79fbfee","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_ELELesson6-2400x1350.jpg","path":null,"size":10.67,"width":500,"height":281},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_ELE_Lesson6_2400x1350_13f79fbfee.jpg","hash":"medium_ELE_Lesson6_2400x1350_13f79fbfee","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_ELELesson6-2400x1350.jpg","path":null,"size":18.34,"width":750,"height":422},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_ELE_Lesson6_2400x1350_13f79fbfee.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_ELE_Lesson6_2400x1350_13f79fbfee","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_ELELesson6-2400x1350.jpg","path":null,"size":4.03,"width":245,"height":137}},"hash":"ELE_Lesson6_2400x1350_13f79fbfee","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":106.75,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/ELE_Lesson6_2400x1350_13f79fbfee.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T22:05:53.184Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T22:05:53.184Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":16,"attributes":{"title":"Why invest using ETFs?","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3XM9sBKgz4","slug":"etf-course-why-invest-in-etfs","subtitle":"Lesson 2","createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:26:32.545Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-16T00:08:45.240Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T21:26:35.176Z","body":"Here we outline some of the reasons why more and more Australian investors are turning to ETFs to help them achieve their financial objectives.\n\n**No need to pick stocks**\n\nInvesting in individual assets, like stocks or bonds, can be complex and time-consuming, and provides limited diversification.\n\nETFs, on the other hand provide opportunities to generate financial returns by investing in an entire market, sector, region, or theme – rather than having to pick a few stocks alone.\n\n**Instant diversification**\n\nWe all know a diversified portfolio is important – because the more varied your assets, the less impact a decline in a particular investment may have on your overall portfolio.\n\nAchieving diversification is more time-consuming and expensive when you buy individual shares, as you would pay brokerage on each share purchase.\n\n**Low-cost**\n\nETFs aim to closely follow a market index – this is called passive management. As a result, the fees to manage the investment are generally lower than other traditional managed funds, which are actively managed. This means that fund managers are hand-picking the underlying holdings to try to outperform the index.\n\nOn face value, seemingly small differences in management fees may not appear to matter all that much, but they can have a significant effect on returns over time, compounding along with your investment returns.\n\nWe go into further detail on the importance of paying attention to investment fees in a future lesson.\n\n**Invest easily in overseas or hard-to-access markets**\n\nYou can buy and sell international ETFs on the ASX just like any other share, allowing you to easily invest in overseas markets.\n\nInvesting directly in individual international shares can be more complicated and expensive, because you must use a broker that offers overseas share trading services, payments are made in foreign currency, and there can be some additional administrative requirements, such as the requirement to complete a US W8-BEN form.\n\nAll Betashares funds are Australian-domiciled, which means there is no additional paperwork or administration when you buy any of our international funds.\n\nYou’re not required to complete forms such as the US W8-BEN form or risk any estate tax implications, both of which are a possibility when investing in non-Australian domiciled (or “cross-listed”) ETFs.\n\n**Offer growth and income**\n\nWhether your investment goal is income or growth – or a combination of both – ETFs may be suitable for you.\n\nThe value of your ETF will rise (and fall) based on the performance of the index it is tracking, and if any of the underlying companies in an ETF pay out dividends, investors will receive this income in the form of distributions paid out, usually either quarterly or half-yearly.","length":"3:01","side_label":"2","watch_key":"etf_course_2","cover":{"data":{"id":365,"attributes":{"name":"EleLesson2-1400x788.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1400,"height":788,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_Ele_Lesson2_1400x788_f62dbb21de.jpg","hash":"large_Ele_Lesson2_1400x788_f62dbb21de","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_EleLesson2-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":24.82,"width":1000,"height":563},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_Ele_Lesson2_1400x788_f62dbb21de.jpg","hash":"small_Ele_Lesson2_1400x788_f62dbb21de","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_EleLesson2-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":9.45,"width":500,"height":281},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_Ele_Lesson2_1400x788_f62dbb21de.jpg","hash":"medium_Ele_Lesson2_1400x788_f62dbb21de","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_EleLesson2-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":16.14,"width":750,"height":422},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_Ele_Lesson2_1400x788_f62dbb21de.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_Ele_Lesson2_1400x788_f62dbb21de","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_EleLesson2-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":3.61,"width":245,"height":138}},"hash":"Ele_Lesson2_1400x788_f62dbb21de","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":39.87,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/Ele_Lesson2_1400x788_f62dbb21de.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:26:26.925Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:26:26.925Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":17,"attributes":{"title":"Buying and selling ETFs","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZ46SuHW7S0","slug":"etf-course-buying-selling-etfs","subtitle":"Lesson 3","createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:31:04.020Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-20T22:29:37.909Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T21:31:06.630Z","body":"An ETF is bought and sold like a company share via a broker when the stock exchange is open. Just like a share, an ETF has a ticker symbol and live price information can be easily found during the course of the trading day.\n\nHere, we get more technical, to explain what happens ‘behind the scenes’ when you buy or sell ETF units.\n\nETFs are bought and sold on a stock exchange, such as the ASX. They are traded in the same way as shares in listed companies, such as Commonwealth Bank of Australia or Woolworths\n\nEach ETF has a unique ticker symbol or code. For example, A200 Australia 200 ETF has the ticker A200. When searching ASX data for the ETF you want to trade – either with your broker or directly with the ASX –  typing in its code will bring the right ETF up on the screen.\n\n**How ETFs trade**\n\nInvestors only usually interact directly with a broker when buying an ETF. But behind the scenes, there are a few other key players also involved in the process:\n\n1. ETF provider (for example, Betashares)\n2. Market maker (a financial institution, like Citigroup)\n3. Broker (a financial institution, like CommSec)\n4. A stock exchange (for example, ASX)\n\nLook at an ETF like it’s a bag of marbles. For example, a collection of 200 individual stocks, including the largest companies listed on the ASX.\n\nThe process starts with what’s called the creation mechanism. This involves a market maker who collects the marbles in a bag and passes them on to an ETF manager, like Betashares.\n\nIn exchange for the bag, Betashares provides the market maker with ETF units, which are units in the fund. These units are then distributed via brokers on the ASX to investors like you and me.\n\nThere are a few key benefits to the creation and redemption process. Firstly, it enables ETFs to have sufficient liquidity. That means they’re easy to sell when you want to.\n\nSecondly, it works to ensure that the value of the ETF stays closely aligned with its underlying assets.\n\n**How ETFs are priced**\n\nETF pricing works differently than pricing company shares. There is a limited number of shares in a listed company, whereas the number of units in an ETF can vary.\n\nCompany share prices fluctuate based on a number of factors, including supply and demand from investors.\n\nETFs work differently as they effectively have unlimited availability and prices are calculated according to the Net Asset Value, or NAV. The NAV is the value of an ETF’s underlying assets.\n\nThat’s not to say supply and demand don’t affect the value of an ETF – they can. But the effectively unlimited supply and the creation and redemption mechanism of ETFs are designed to ensure that an ETF’s value remains as closely aligned to its underlying investments as possible.\n\n**NAV vs market price**\n\nIt’s important to note that at times an ETF’s NAV may differ from its market price, which is the price at which investors can buy and sell an ETF on the exchange. This is most likely to occur when markets experience significant volatility, including at the start and end of the trading day.\n\n**How to check if an ETF is trading at NAV**\n\nTo help you check whether an ETF’s market price is in line with the NAV, some ETF issuers provide a real-time indication of an ETF’s NAV on their website, shown as iNAV, or indicative net asset value.\n\n| Term                           | Explanation                                                                                                                                                             |\n|--------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|\n| Net Asset Value (NAV)          | The total value of the holdings<br> of the fund, minus its liabilities and divided<br> by the number of units in the fund.<br><br>The NAV is the unit price, or the share price<br> of the ETF itself and is calculated at the end of<br> the trading day, based on the closing market<br> prices of the portfolio’s holdings. |\n| Indicative<br>Net Asset Value (iNAV) | A real-time calculation of<br> NAV usually found on an ETF’s webpage                                                                                                      |\n| Market price                   | The price at which investors<br> can buy or sell an ETF on an exchange                                                                                                     |\n\n**The ideal time of day to buy ETFs**\n\nThe first and last few minutes of the trading day are the ASX’s ‘peak-hour’, when there can be significant price volatility.\n\nIt’s generally best to purchase ETFs when the market has settled – usually between 10.30am and 3.30pm Sydney time.","length":"4:03","side_label":"3","watch_key":"etf_course_3","cover":{"data":{"id":366,"attributes":{"name":"Ele-Lesson3-1400x788.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1400,"height":788,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_Ele_Lesson3_1400x788_6bb0adb795.jpg","hash":"large_Ele_Lesson3_1400x788_6bb0adb795","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_Ele-Lesson3-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":21.68,"width":1000,"height":563},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_Ele_Lesson3_1400x788_6bb0adb795.jpg","hash":"small_Ele_Lesson3_1400x788_6bb0adb795","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_Ele-Lesson3-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":7.97,"width":500,"height":281},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_Ele_Lesson3_1400x788_6bb0adb795.jpg","hash":"medium_Ele_Lesson3_1400x788_6bb0adb795","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_Ele-Lesson3-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":14.2,"width":750,"height":422},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_Ele_Lesson3_1400x788_6bb0adb795.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_Ele_Lesson3_1400x788_6bb0adb795","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_Ele-Lesson3-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":2.93,"width":245,"height":138}},"hash":"Ele_Lesson3_1400x788_6bb0adb795","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":35.99,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/Ele_Lesson3_1400x788_6bb0adb795.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:27:15.250Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:27:15.250Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":18,"attributes":{"title":"Types of ETFs","source":"https://youtube.com/watch?v=ldQnd-wZPvQ","slug":"etf-course-types-of-etfs","subtitle":"Lesson 4","createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:43:00.678Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T22:16:38.296Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T21:43:04.738Z","body":"There are literally thousands of ETFs available globally today.

They offer a pre-set mix of investments aligned to a range of risk appetites, such as conservative, balanced or high growth.\n\n[Diversified ETFs](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/portfolio-diversification/)\n\n**Currencies**\n\nYou can also use ETFs to invest in foreign currency – gaining exposure to the movements and performance of individual currencies, such as the Australian dollar vs the US dollar.\n\nAlternatively, if you’re looking for exposure to international shares or bonds but are concerned about the effect of currency movements on your investment, you may consider investing in a currency hedged ETF which uses currency hedging to try to minimise the impact of exchange rate fluctuations.\n\n[Currency ETFs](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/investing-in-currency/)\n\n**Commodities**\n\nAnother type of ETF is commodity ETFs, which invest in commodities, such as oil and gold-related assets.\n\n[Gold ETFs](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/gold-etfs/)\n\n[Commodity ETFs](https://www.betashares.com.au/category/investing-in-commodity-etfs/)\n\n**Which ETFs are right for you?**\n\nThe ETFs you choose will depend on why you’re investing and what you’re hoping to achieve.\n\nIt can help to reflect on your goals, investment timeframe and the level of investment risk you’re willing – and able – to accept to achieve the financial returns you’re after.\n\nWe cover this in greater detail in the next lesson.","length":"4:06","side_label":"4","watch_key":"etf_course_4","cover":{"data":{"id":367,"attributes":{"name":"EleLesson4-1400x788.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1400,"height":788,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_Ele_Lesson4_1400x788_3f5f361206.jpg","hash":"large_Ele_Lesson4_1400x788_3f5f361206","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_EleLesson4-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":28.76,"width":1000,"height":563},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_Ele_Lesson4_1400x788_3f5f361206.jpg","hash":"small_Ele_Lesson4_1400x788_3f5f361206","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_EleLesson4-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":10.45,"width":500,"height":281},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_Ele_Lesson4_1400x788_3f5f361206.jpg","hash":"medium_Ele_Lesson4_1400x788_3f5f361206","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_EleLesson4-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":19.27,"width":750,"height":422},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_Ele_Lesson4_1400x788_3f5f361206.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_Ele_Lesson4_1400x788_3f5f361206","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_EleLesson4-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":3.75,"width":245,"height":138}},"hash":"Ele_Lesson4_1400x788_3f5f361206","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":47.75,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/Ele_Lesson4_1400x788_3f5f361206.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:36:50.240Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:36:50.240Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":19,"attributes":{"title":"How to choose and compare ETFs","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBF_jWhnozk","slug":"etf-course-how-to-choose-and-compare-etfs","subtitle":"Lesson 5","createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:46:58.126Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:47:04.708Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T21:47:04.596Z","body":"When choosing an ETF, it is helpful to first think about your personal circumstances, including your objectives, time horizon and risk tolerance. To help with this, ask yourself the following questions:\n\n- What are you hoping to achieve by investing?\n- How comfortable you are with risk?\n- Are you investing for long-term growth, income or a combination of the two?\n\n**Consider the asset class**\n\nNext, pick your asset class based on your investment strategy.\n\nIf you are seeking growth, there are ETFs offering exposure to assets like [https://www.betashares.com.au/category/australian-etfs/](Australian shares) or [https://www.betashares.com.au/category/international-etfs/](international shares). If you’re seeking income, there are fixed income ETFs or ETFs that invest in high-yielding equities.\n\n**Understand the fund and the index which the ETF aims to track**\n\nOnce you’ve narrowed those things down and have found two or three ETFs that might be appropriate, it’s important to look under the hood to better understand each fund and the index it aims to track.\n\nFor example, two ETFs may have similar names and be focused on the same sector, but could have completely different holdings and risk profiles if the indexes they track are constructed differently.\n\nIt’s important to see what the fund owns, how the holdings are weighted and how diversified the portfolio is.\n\nSome key considerations:\n- What is the fund’s investment objective?\n- Is it a passive or actively managed strategy?\n- If the ETF aims to track an index, what is the index methodology? That is, does it invest in each holding based on market capitalisation, split everything equally, or take some other approach?\n- What are the risks associated with the fund?\n\nIt’s also helpful to consider whether you want broad exposure, or if you’re looking for exposure to a certain market segment. You should consider the countries, regions or sectors an ETF offers exposure to and check the concentration of the ETF’s holdings with regard to these factors.\n\nFor example, because the ASX 200 index is weighted according to the size of the companies that make up the index, any ETF that aims to track this index will be heavily weighted towards the financials and resources sectors – concentrations that may not suit all investors.\n\nFortunately, there are hundreds of ETFs available with exposure to different kinds of investments to help you achieve your unique investment objectives.\n\n**Look out for ETF overlap to ensure diversification**\n\nAs we’ve mentioned before, diversifying your portfolio can be helpful in balancing some of the risks involved in investing.\n\nThat’s why it’s important to be mindful of ETF overlap, which occurs when you’re invested in too many similar ETFs.\n\nFor example, if you invest in an ETF that tracks the tech-heavy Nasdaq index, and you also hold another ETF that has a focus on companies in the tech sector, you may find that you own some of the same stocks several times over – affecting your portfolio’s overall diversification.\n\nTo avoid this, compare the top holdings, sectors and country or regional exposure of the ETFs you are considering.\n\n**Understand the fees and costs**\n\nIt’s important to think about the management fees and other costs involved in purchasing, maintaining and selling your holdings in an ETF.\n\nAs we’ll discuss in a later lesson, fees and costs can eat into your overall investment\n\n**Check the product disclosure statement before you invest**\n\nFinally, make sure you read the product disclosure statement (PDS) of a fund before investing.\n\nA PDS has heaps of important information about an ETF – from the index, sector or asset it aims to track, to the fees and costs involved, and the risks of investing.\n\n","length":"4:13","side_label":"5","watch_key":"etf_course_5","cover":{"data":{"id":368,"attributes":{"name":"ELE-Lesson-5-1400x788.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1400,"height":788,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_ELE_Lesson_5_1400x788_0778ca2613.jpg","hash":"large_ELE_Lesson_5_1400x788_0778ca2613","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_ELE-Lesson-5-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":27.93,"width":1000,"height":563},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_ELE_Lesson_5_1400x788_0778ca2613.jpg","hash":"small_ELE_Lesson_5_1400x788_0778ca2613","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_ELE-Lesson-5-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":10.49,"width":500,"height":281},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_ELE_Lesson_5_1400x788_0778ca2613.jpg","hash":"medium_ELE_Lesson_5_1400x788_0778ca2613","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_ELE-Lesson-5-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":18.54,"width":750,"height":422},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_ELE_Lesson_5_1400x788_0778ca2613.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_ELE_Lesson_5_1400x788_0778ca2613","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_ELE-Lesson-5-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":3.66,"width":245,"height":138}},"hash":"ELE_Lesson_5_1400x788_0778ca2613","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":45.25,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/ELE_Lesson_5_1400x788_0778ca2613.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:43:39.165Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:43:39.165Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":20,"attributes":{"title":"ETF investment strategy","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zHhkBEkHXg","slug":"etf-course-investment-strategy","subtitle":"Lesson 6","createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:49:35.543Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T22:13:12.527Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T21:49:38.073Z","body":"The diverse nature of ETFs can support investors working with a variety of strategies. But most ETFs are designed to be held long term and are ideally used as building blocks to create a diversified portfolio.\n\nHere are two examples of long-term investing strategies that can be easily achieved with ETFs.\n\n**Strategic asset allocation**\n\nStrategic asset allocation involves setting targets for how much of your portfolio is allocated to different assets – then periodically rebalancing your portfolio back to those allocations when they change due to market movements.\n\nYour risk tolerance, timeframe and goals will determine the percentage of your portfolio that you allocate to each type of investment – and these will all change over time.\n\nRebalancing may sound complicated. But the good news is that with ETFs, you’re buying and selling multiple investments in fewer trades – making it easy to review and rebalance your portfolio over time.\n\n![strategic asset allocation image](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/ETF101-Course-website-assets_L6_strategic-allocation-1-1400x1068.png)\n\n**Core/satellite**\n\nThis involves focusing on a core group of investments that are well-diversified, low cost and designed to be held for the long term. The idea is that you check in and review these investments regularly.\n\nYou then combine core investments with a smaller group of more tactical holdings known as satellites. These are designed as more focused investments, or areas of interest, that you add or subtract from your portfolio to capitalise on emerging trends and market movements.\n\nIf you haven’t already, check out our Investing course for a deeper understanding of the different asset classes and investment strategies for ETFs.\n\n![core-satellite-image](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ETF101-Course-website-assets_L6_core-satellite-1.png)\n\n","length":"2:28","side_label":"6","watch_key":"etf_course_6","cover":{"data":{"id":369,"attributes":{"name":"ELELesson6-1400x788.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1400,"height":788,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_ELE_Lesson6_1400x788_4c46f8444e.jpg","hash":"large_ELE_Lesson6_1400x788_4c46f8444e","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_ELELesson6-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":27.88,"width":1000,"height":563},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_ELE_Lesson6_1400x788_4c46f8444e.jpg","hash":"small_ELE_Lesson6_1400x788_4c46f8444e","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_ELELesson6-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":10.76,"width":500,"height":281},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_ELE_Lesson6_1400x788_4c46f8444e.jpg","hash":"medium_ELE_Lesson6_1400x788_4c46f8444e","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_ELELesson6-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":18.51,"width":750,"height":422},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_ELE_Lesson6_1400x788_4c46f8444e.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_ELE_Lesson6_1400x788_4c46f8444e","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_ELELesson6-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":4.1,"width":245,"height":138}},"hash":"ELE_Lesson6_1400x788_4c46f8444e","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":45.35,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/ELE_Lesson6_1400x788_4c46f8444e.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:47:59.072Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:47:59.072Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":21,"attributes":{"title":"How to measure your ETF’s performance","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MoIrnhg9fA","slug":"etf-course-how-to-measure-your-etfs-performance","subtitle":"Lesson 7","createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:51:45.652Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T22:14:14.664Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T21:51:48.072Z","body":"An important part of investing is tracking the performance of your investments and reviewing how much your portfolio has gained or lost over time.\n\nWhen it comes to understanding the performance of an ETF, there are a few things to consider.\n\n**Expense ratios and costs**\n\nAn ETF’s management costs indicates how much of your investment in an ETF will be deducted annually as fees. You can think of this as the fee paid to the ETF provider for managing the fund.\n\nIn the case of fees, the lower the better. That’s because management costs are measured as a percentage of your investment in the ETF.\n\nFor example, an ETF may charge a fee of 0.04% – meaning, you’ll pay $4 per year for every $10,000 you have invested in the fund.\n\nAn annual fee of 1% or less may not seem like much, but, every dollar that comes out of your account in fees is a dollar that is not compounded, and will not grow, in future years.\n\nWe cover the importance of paying attention to fees and how they work with ETFs in greater detail in our course, Betashares explains: Investing.\n\n![compound interest graph](https://www.betashares.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/ETF101-Course-website-assets_L7_compound-interest-1400x1068.png)\n\n**Historical performance**\n\nYou might have heard the phrase “past performance is no indicator of future performance”. There’s no way to predict the future, which means that the way an ETF has performed in the past can’t tell you how it will perform in future.\n\nBut what it can do is give you an idea of how the ETF historically has fared in different conditions – so it is still worth checking past performance on the provider’s website.\n\n**Tracking error**\n\nSince the main task of most ETFs is to track an index, it makes sense to check on its tracking record.\n\nTwo key questions to ask:\n1. How well did the ETF replicate the performance of its index (keeping fees in mind)?\n2. When the index increased, did the ETF increase by the same amount?","length":"2:32","side_label":"7","watch_key":"etf_course_7","cover":{"data":{"id":370,"attributes":{"name":"ELElesson7-1400x788.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1400,"height":788,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_EL_Elesson7_1400x788_bd3375ca4e.jpg","hash":"large_EL_Elesson7_1400x788_bd3375ca4e","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_ELElesson7-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":43.9,"width":1000,"height":563},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_EL_Elesson7_1400x788_bd3375ca4e.jpg","hash":"small_EL_Elesson7_1400x788_bd3375ca4e","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_ELElesson7-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":17,"width":500,"height":281},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_EL_Elesson7_1400x788_bd3375ca4e.jpg","hash":"medium_EL_Elesson7_1400x788_bd3375ca4e","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_ELElesson7-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":29.85,"width":750,"height":422},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_EL_Elesson7_1400x788_bd3375ca4e.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_EL_Elesson7_1400x788_bd3375ca4e","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_ELElesson7-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":5.88,"width":245,"height":138}},"hash":"EL_Elesson7_1400x788_bd3375ca4e","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":69.87,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/EL_Elesson7_1400x788_bd3375ca4e.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:51:39.854Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:51:39.854Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}},{"id":22,"attributes":{"title":"Course key takeaways","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qCkZZY0uYQ","slug":"etf-course-key-takeaways","subtitle":"Lesson 8","createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:57:32.156Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:57:40.529Z","publishedAt":"2023-10-05T21:57:40.524Z","body":"As we come to the end of the ETF course, here are our top 10 takeaways.\n\n1. Whatever your investment strategy or experience level, ETFs can be a convenient, low-cost way to build an investment portfolio.\n\n2. An ETF operates like a wrapper around multiple assets – whether they’re shares, bonds or commodities – giving you exposure to the performance of multiple investments in one trade.\n\n3. When you buy or sell an ETF, you’re buying and selling an ETF ‘unit’, and these trade on the stock exchange during market hours.\n\n4. There are many kinds of ETFs – you can use them to gain exposure to growth, income, or defensive investments, or for tactical exposure to specific assets, regions, or themes.\n\n5. ETFs are generally low cost – allowing you to buy and sell various assets in fewer trades than if you were buying and selling individual shares.\n\n6. ETFs offer many potential benefits:\n   - They remove the need to pick individual shares or investments.\n   - They can offer instant diversification.\n   - ETFs are bought and sold on an exchange – just like shares.\n   - They are generally lower cost than traditional actively managed funds.\n   - They can offer access to international and other hard-to-reach markets.\n\n7. Units in ETFs are virtually unlimited in supply. This ensures that they typically trade in line with the value of their underlying holdings, and that they remain liquid – meaning, you can buy and sell when you need to.\n\n8. It’s generally best to place trades for ETF units when share markets are settled – that’s usually any time between 10 minutes after the market opens to 10 minutes before it closes.\n\n9. When it comes to choosing and comparing ETFs, it can help to follow this five-step process:\n   - First, consider your investment strategy.\n   - Then choose your assets based on your strategy.\n   - Try to understand the workings of the ETF you’re interested in, the index it aims to track and the risks involved.\n   - Look out for ETF overlap to help ensure your overall portfolio is diversified.\n   - Finally, understand any fees involved with your fund, as the fees you pay can affect your returns over time.\n\n10. Most ETFs are designed to be held over the long term – ideally as diversified, cost-efficient building blocks for an investment portfolio. It can help to consider these two strategies – strategic asset allocation and core/satellite.\n","length":"3:19","side_label":"8","watch_key":"etf_course_8","cover":{"data":{"id":371,"attributes":{"name":"ELE-LEsson8-1400x788.jpg","alternativeText":null,"caption":null,"width":1400,"height":788,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/large_ELE_L_Esson8_1400x788_bfe3b90330.jpg","hash":"large_ELE_L_Esson8_1400x788_bfe3b90330","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"large_ELE-LEsson8-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":24.75,"width":1000,"height":563},"small":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/small_ELE_L_Esson8_1400x788_bfe3b90330.jpg","hash":"small_ELE_L_Esson8_1400x788_bfe3b90330","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"small_ELE-LEsson8-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":9.14,"width":500,"height":281},"medium":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/medium_ELE_L_Esson8_1400x788_bfe3b90330.jpg","hash":"medium_ELE_L_Esson8_1400x788_bfe3b90330","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"medium_ELE-LEsson8-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":15.97,"width":750,"height":422},"thumbnail":{"ext":".jpg","url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/thumbnail_ELE_L_Esson8_1400x788_bfe3b90330.jpg","hash":"thumbnail_ELE_L_Esson8_1400x788_bfe3b90330","mime":"image/jpeg","name":"thumbnail_ELE-LEsson8-1400x788.jpg","path":null,"size":3.41,"width":245,"height":138}},"hash":"ELE_L_Esson8_1400x788_bfe3b90330","ext":".jpg","mime":"image/jpeg","size":40.46,"url":"https://data-cdn.betashares.services/images/ELE_L_Esson8_1400x788_bfe3b90330.jpg","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-strapi-cloud","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-10-05T21:57:27.078Z","updatedAt":"2023-10-05T21:57:27.078Z"}}},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}}]},"layout":[]}},{"id":3,"attributes":{"title":"Test","slug":"test","subtitle":"test","createdAt":"2025-10-30T04:22:43.297Z","updatedAt":"2025-10-30T04:23:32.177Z","publishedAt":"2025-10-30T04:23:32.149Z","items":{"data":[{"id":24,"attributes":{"title":"Test Test","source":null,"slug":"test-pk","subtitle":"banana","createdAt":"2025-10-30T04:21:56.334Z","updatedAt":"2025-10-30T04:22:01.352Z","publishedAt":"2025-10-30T04:22:01.343Z","body":"sdfsdfsdfsdf","length":"00:40","side_label":"banana","watch_key":null,"cover":{"data":null},"cover_dark":{"data":null}}}]},"layout":[]}},{"id":4,"attributes":{"title":"Equity Mates: Getting Started","slug":"equity-mates-intro","subtitle":"Learn the foundations of investing with Bryce and Alec from Equity Mates.","createdAt":"2026-01-22T22:03:45.186Z","updatedAt":"2026-02-16T03:38:43.505Z","publishedAt":"2026-01-23T00:00:00.000Z","items":{"data":[{"id":25,"attributes":{"title":"Why Investing Is for Everyone","source":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5-rWEQlr_I","slug":"equity-mates-investing-for-everyone","subtitle":"Lesson 1","createdAt":"2026-01-22T22:03:04.448Z","updatedAt":"2026-04-02T02:55:03.919Z","publishedAt":"2026-01-23T00:00:00.000Z","body":"Investing.
