Welcome to the latest edition of The Lander Report.
Now is one of the most decisive points for investors in several decades. The environment has structurally changed and won’t return to what’s been considered normal.
In this detailed analysis by Dr Jerome Lander, you’ll hear the full story with compelling clarity, logic and insight.
- The extent of change
- The factors driving change
- The future for inflation
- Short and longer-term concerns
- The case for bull and bear market scenarios
- Dynamic Asset’s position on bull vs bear
- Dynamic Asset’s management approach
- A look at the context provided by The Future Fund.
Not for the faint-hearted, this edition of the Lander Report is essential viewing for financial advisers and engaged investors.
Dr Jerome Lander’s key insights:
- After decades of disinflation, reducing interest rates, stable geopolitics, a focus on globalised economic efficiency and generally favourable conditions, the environment for investors has changed and will not return to what’s been considered normal anytime soon.
- The drivers of change are tightening liquidity, higher interest rates, higher inflation, geopolitical frictions, de-globalisation, a focus on economic resilience and the energy crisis.
- While various inflation outcomes are possible, there are long-term structural inflationary pressures. A likely economic outcome is stagflation with sustained low productivity and high inflation.
- A bull market scenario is possible but relies on a distinct change in current central bank policies.
- Bear market scenarios are more likely, with the possibility of acute falls and a sovereign debt crisis.
- It’s time to build better-diversified portfolios with higher allocations to alternatives, assets that can perform in an inflationary environment with less reliance on simple equities and bonds.
- A dynamic asset allocation approach is needed to adapt to a future, even imminent crisis, and take advantage of the opportunities it provides by making meaningful asset allocation shifts in real-time.
