Weekly update from our research partner Investsense



Investment Update | M Group

WHAT: Gold and silver fell sharply late in the month after a strong run.

WHY: The sell-off followed Trump’s nomination of Kevin Warsh as Fed Chair, which undercut fears of currency debasement that had driven precious metals higher. With bond yields largely unchanged, the move looked more like a rapid unwinding of a crowded trade than a shift in inflation expectations.

WHAT: Central banks reinforced a “higher for longer” interest rate outlook.

WHY: The Fed remains cautious on rate cuts as growth stays resilient, while stronger Australian inflation has increased the likelihood of an RBA rate hike.

WHAT: Earnings season exposed growing scrutiny of big tech valuations.

WHY: Microsoft sold off sharply despite beating revenue expectations, while Meta rallied after clearer evidence of AI monetisation. The market is increasingly demanding that AI investment translate into earnings and is worried about overspend on AI infrastructure. 

WHAT: January still delivered solid outcomes for diversified portfolios.

WHY: Despite the late-month volatility, January was constructive overall. Emerging markets rose about 10% and global small caps gained around 5%. A typical growth portfolio was up around 1%, while more conservative portfolios rose by roughly 0.5%.

I have absolutely no doubt Lynde is one of the very best in her industry.


As part of the ageing process what to do with my nest egg savings and superannuation I found to be quite stressful and as the time got closer to accessing it the more I Googled and read about my choices the more confused I got. Lynde's awesome work ethic, excellent product knowledge and caring nature has enabled us to create a portfolio that really works well and suits our needs making this whole process a whole lot easier.


Thanks Lynde for your continued efforts and please keep up the brilliant work you and your experienced team do as we really do appreciate it.
