In this episode, we dive into private assets. What they are, their history, the risks and benefits and whether they suit investors.In this week's Unconventional Wisdom column, Mark runs through the reason why private credit is a hard no for him. As investors rush into the attractive yield offered by private credit providers, he urges caution and why all that glitters is not always gold.Shani's Future Focus looks at three ways to maximise your returns. Her column looks past how to find the best investments, but how to maximise the returns of the ones that you have.Public companies that are taken over by private equity are usually done so at a premium to recent share prices. But does seeking out potential takeover targets make sense for investors? In the latest edition of Bookworm, Joseph taps the insight of legendary fund manager Anthony Bolton to arrive at three things that might make a company more attractive to acquirers. He also explains why investors should be wary of relying too much on this outcome alone.99% of investors won't be the next Warren Buffett. Luckily, we don't need to be that successful.

It allows investors to understand what our super system does well and what it doesn't, and how that might impact them. Shani's Future Focus column looks at a quirk to one of the most generous tax concessions that we have in Australia, the CGT exemption for your home. The CGT exemption also allows for you to rent out your property for a number of years, and still claim the CGT-exempt status. Shani takes a deep dive into the tax policy, the circumstances that it suits and the situations to avoid that would make homeowners pay more tax than they need to. Small caps have historically traded at a premium given conviction behind long term outperformance. Market narratives surrounding their sizeable growth prospects can sway younger investors who performance chase. As a follow up on a previous article 'The Beginner ETF Portfolio', Sim explores the risks and merits of small cap exposure in a beginner's ETF portfolio. AI chatbots and search assistants have transformed the way that many people seek information. But can they be relied upon for investment advice, too? Acting on a recommendation from a recent industry event, Joseph asked ChatGPT to impersonate an investment board of three famous investors. Then, he asked it to discuss some potential investments. What happened next left Joseph impressed and worried in equal measure. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

However, we've had significant economic and social disruption in the form of a pandemic, and the volatility and uncertainty of President Trump. Still, the market continues to rise. In Mark's latest column, he has explored the reasons for why the market continues to rise, and whether the trend will continue. Stock market participants can broadly be split into two camps: investors and speculators. In the next edition of Bookworm, Joseph shows how Warren Buffett's teacher Benjamin Graham distinguished between the two in a single paragraph of text. He also poses a question that every budding investor should ask themselves, and shares his view on a five word approach to markets that Graham recommended. Shani's last edition of her column looked at a tax targeting super accounts over $3 million. In this edition, she broadens the lens. Australia has a National Financial Capability Strategy, but it is inactive. She runs through the dire impacts that putting financial literacy on the backburner can have on Aussies. She writes an open letter to the newly re-elected Government, urging an immediate focus on improving financial literacy. 60% of Aussies report not feeling confident about managing their own retirement. The relationship between you and your super fund might end up being one of the longest relationships you'll ever have. And just like life, you're at liberty to chop and change as you go. But much like picking a good partner, who you start with matters. In this week's Young & Invested, Sim explores some of the things you should consider when picking between super funds.

Understanding the maths behind all of the variables for your total return means you're able to make better decisions. Tax is a big one.In this week's Unconventional wisdom column, Mark explores whether investor complacency is out of touch with reality. He looks at game theory and a prisoner's dilemma, and the lessons that investors can take from it, especially when it comes to the current market volatility. He looks like at where Trump - and the market, might go from here. Finding superior long-term investments as a stock picker requires you to find companies that defy the laws of capitalism. But how might you go about doing this? In the next edition of his Bookworm column, Joseph explores Marathon Asset Management's capital cycle approach to investing and how it can identify so-called “compounders”. Joseph also highlights a holding from his portfolio that he thinks fits the bill. Successful investing doesn't end as soon as you hit 'buy' in your trading account. Shani's Future Focus column looks at a methodical framework to monitor and maintain your portfolio, to increase your chances of achieving your financial goals. Easy access to technology means younger generations are more informed and confident in their investment decisions than ever.

As more Aussies move towards this style of investing, we must understand what the opportunity cost is. Mark's Unconventional Wisdom column explores the opportunity cost of being an income investor. In Shani's Future Focus column, she looks at the insights for investors from a man responsible for $16 trillion. Salim Ramji is the new captain at the helm of Vanguard. His recent visit to Australia included a conversation with Johnathan Shapiro which revealed insights into how Salim sees the world, and how investors can apply those insights to how they invest. A study found that younger generations were disengaged when it came to their superannuation – and this isn't surprising. It's hard for young people to be excited at the prospect of retirement. But the reality is, failing to review your super is like cutting a hole in your wallet and walking around as the money falls out. This week Sim explores how your level of engagement with superannuation can have a significant impact on your retirement outcomes. Every big decision in life has trade offs. This can make it hard to make a decision in the first place and, perhaps even worse, lead to regrets seeping in later.

In this week's Unconventional Wisdom column, Mark runs through what he should do about a position in his portfolio that has grown too large. He is reluctant to sell shares, especially due to the tax consequences, but it also aware of the dangers of having a large concentration in one share that violates his investment policy statement. Shani recently wrote an article on why she includes managed funds in her portfolio. She received many questions about whether it was the right choice. Her Future Focus column this week comes out in defence of her decision, and why it's important that investors consider their own situation when choosing investment products. Benjamin Graham is widely revered as the dean of value investing and the master of flipping stocks that traded below their asset value. Despite this, Graham's best ever investment actually stemmed from a very different approach. In this week's edition of Bookworm, Joseph finds buy and hold inspiration from this most unlikely of sources. In Sim's day to day, she often gets asked for investment advice when she least expects. Whether it's about shares at the dinner table or Bitcoin at a doctor's appointment. Recently this turned into a request from her younger sister to invest her savings in the market as I see fit.

In this week's Unconventional Wisdom column, Mark explores whether they live up to the hype. The proposed $3 million super cap was originally seen as a tax for the wealthy.

Warren Buffett often cites Phil Fisher as one of his biggest investing influences. In this week's Bookworm, Joseph explores one of Fisher's essential criteria for a long-term holding.

Mark goes through why the conventional wisdom is to reinvest dividends, but despite this, why he has stopped.This week, Mark's Unconventional Wisdom column takes a deep dive into the Yale model. He looks at whether Industry superfunds are following the wrong investment strategy, as there are signs that it may not work as well in the future as it has in the past. For International Women's Day, Shani's Future Focus column looks at how women have been able to find financial security regardless of vigorous societal opposition, looking at examples from different cultures around the world. She leans into new research from Morningstar's Behavioural Research team to provide evidence based insights on how to increase your financial security by focusing on strengthening your foundations. Australians are often told that the only way to achieve wealth is through the property market. This week Sim explores the question many young people are grappling with amid sky rocketing house prices, should you invest in shares or save for a house deposit? A company's moat and the returns on capital it is able to generate for shareholders are not static. Over time they can get better or they can get worse, for reasons in and outside of a company's control. In this week's Bookworm, Joseph looks at two Aussie companies that may be scoring what Pat Dorsey sees as a classic own goal when it comes to capital allocation.To submit any questions or feedback, please email mark.lamonica1@morningstar.com or leave us a voicemail to feature on the podcast here.Additional resources from our episodes are available via our website.Audio Producer and mixer: William Ton.

As it turns out, the differences could explain why some companies are able to compound in value far faster than others.Australia is undoubtedly in a housing crisis with young, prospective homeowners feeling betrayed by our governments.

He looks at why this is the case and how investors can maximise their outcomes. In a reader requested edition of Bookworm, Joseph explored a simple stock valuation method that features in one of his favourite investing books. By putting the formula to work on an ASX company with household name brands, Joseph was reminded that even the simplest valuation tools are in fact highly complex. Many young investors find purchasing a home out of reach. They find that they are struggling with cost of living and have minimal amounts to contribute towards their investments. Shani's Future Focus runs through a framework that looks at different aspects of your life where you can still set financial goals to help your future self. As the days pass, young Aussies are straying further from being able to buy their own home. Amidst election noise, consistent house price rises and slowing wage growth - it appears there is no end in sight for Australia's housing crisis.

We speak about the positives and perils of diversification in your portfolio, and how to find a balance. This week in Mark's Unconventional Wisdom column he challenges the traditional classifications of income and growth stocks. He runs through his focus on dividend growth, rather than just focusing solely on yield. Mark runs through a controversial income pick that he believes offers significant potential for future dividend growth. Core/Satellite is an investment strategy that many financial advisers use for their clients. Shani looks at whether this is something that individual investors should adopt, and whether she has adopted it for her own portfolio. In the latest installment of his Bookworm column, Joseph uses David Dreman's concept of "trigger events" to explain Nvidia's recent market fall. He also earmarks two ASX stocks that appear to lie on opposite sides of this famous contrarian investor's radar. With the proliferation of financial advice available through the media, individuals are often faced with an overwhelming number of investment options. As someone who works in the finance industry with an abundance of research at her disposal, Sim also experiences this paradox of choice. Despite this, her column explores why she chooses not to invest in individual stocks anymore and why this method aligns with her goals. Interested in our investing course?
