Ep 68 How to use today’s growth to set up tomorrow’s future

Mixed data is coming out of the property market, with record-low interest rates, pent-up demand and limited supply fuelling strong price growth. On the other hand, prolonged lockdowns and talk of macro-prudential policy could inflict negative impacts. Dissecting recent developments, hosts Phil Tarrant, Steve Waters and Victor Kumar discuss last year’s missed predictions of 30 per cent market falls and why the rhetoric is different during the most recent lockdowns. The trio also chat through some of the key topics you need to know as an investor, including how to use the current market trends to position your portfolio and whether it’s time to offload those poor-performing assets. Looking forward, Phil, Steve and Victor touch on the dangers of predicting the future.
