Easy Money Now – But What Happens Next?

James Duckworth

We saw this chart recently and could not let it go without comment. It shows how, since inception in December 2008, the Federal Reserve’s Quantitative Easing (QE) program has matched the rise in the S&P 500. With the market just off its all-time high, more than 80% of the index’s rise during this period has taken place when the program has been active. Just as evident, the market has eased during periods when the program has been dormant (the white vertical bars). Global markets have benefited from the Fed’s program, with the countries and blocs carrying out their own QE (the UK, Japan and the Eurozone) enjoying an extra boost.

A High Return Investment in Neem

James Duckworth

The single most important principle in investing is Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT), which states that while aiming to achieve an expected or desired return, investors should protect themselves and minimize risk by choosing a range of un-related products. The higher the level of diversification, the lower the risk profile, the lower the beta and the more assured and attractive the eventual returns.

Why We Like Brazil

James Duckworth

In 2012 Brazil is the joint sixth biggest (together with the UK) global economy, and by 2016 the IMF and World Economic Outlook forecast that Brazil will have left the UK behind, and will be the world’s fifth largest economy with a GDP of $3.1Tn/$3.1Trillion Brazil’s growth rate over the past decade has been staggering. In 2000 Brazilian GDP was a mere $0.6Tn, a third the output of the UK, and ranking the country globally at number ten.
