Latest Market Matters Opinions
What Mattered Today
The ASX edged higher to close out a mildly positive week, helped by improving reports on the Middle East and softening expectations for Australian interest rates. Miners and Energy stocks led the line today, though it’s been a particularly volatile week, with several triple digit moves, even though we’ve ended only +0.3% above where we started. Read more

Question asked
Why is WAM Capital (ASX: WAM) so cheap?WAM has just gone ex-dividend a few days ago. It pays a partially franked dividend of $0.155 a year. That is better than 9%! If I include the franking credits, it is better than 15%! It has a long track record of paying steady dividends, only the franking credits vary. Generally, high dividends means high risk. What are the risks with this stock? Regards, John

Question asked
Appen Ltd (ASX: APX)Hi James, I have (unfortunately) been a long time shareholder of Appen and should have sold a while ago. I would appreciate your thoughts as I am sitting on quite a large paper loss at the moment and I'm thinking that perhaps it's time to ditch my shares as my patience is running out. However, Appen had their AGM today and the CEO seems very upbeat. The market seemed to react favourably to the comments. I hold Appen within my SMSF which I realise was a big mistake. Is it time to sell? Kind regards, Judy
