How can MM assist me in building a portfolio?

Hi,

I am considering becoming a member of MM with a particular interest in following your Flagship Growth Portfolio. Could you please advise how MM would assist me to build the portfolio and enter the market as many positions have been held for quite some time and the price has already increased. FYI, I have 100K available to invest.

Kind regards

Darren Cooke

Answer

Hi Darren,

A gentle reminder that at MM we provide general advice, not personal advice on what you should do. The market has soared from its early 2020 low making it unlikely that many reasonable portfolios wouldn’t face the same issues. At MM we publish the portfolio’s that we are invested in and the best way for you to make decisions around that is to look for the the word “Active” after the stock code in the relevant portfolio, if so we still believe it’s a buy at today’s levels but if not the horse has probably bolted from a risk / reward perspective and we’re more a hold.

The Match Out: CPI dents equity rally ahead of ANZAC Day

Equities followed the US market higher this morning, also adding a little premium thanks to a handful of positive quarterly reports that were announced after the North American markets closed. That all took a back seat as inflation data printed late morning, CPI coming in hotter than expected which sent the market into a spin, falling ~0.6% at the time before finding some relief. In the end, the index closed little changed, a good result given the circumstances though largely thanks to support from the Big 4 banks.

Portfolio Positioning: Bonds fell, dragging stocks along for the ride, both are now basing in our opinion

Bond markets have struggled over recent weeks as inflation appeared increasingly “sticky,” but it hardly registers on the chart compared to their weakness through 2021/2 and mid-2023. We believe the local credit markets have come back to realistic levels as the RBA awaits further economic data to deliver clarity on the underlying strength and direction of the local economy. Traders have gone from being far too optimistic on rate cuts into Christmas to becoming almost pessimistic; the US futures markets have gone from pricing in three cuts to 1.77 cuts, or one definitely, and probably two.
