This week's Smart Investing takes a look at investor trends and behaviours, including what traits investors should focus on when markets are so volatile, how international diversification can help investors overcome home biases, and what SMSF trustees are investing in and why.

Vanguard Australia | | | | | Have you checked your portfolio today? | | Rather than focusing on the day-to-day movements of financial markets, especially during times of heightened price volatility, here's what you should pay attention to instead. | | Read article | | | | | | | How diversification fights investor biases | | Investing in familiar names may bring a sense of comfort but by focusing too heavily on the Australian market, investors may limit their opportunity set and forgo the benefits of greater diversification. | | Read article | | | | | | | How SMSFs are investing in 2022 | | The Vanguard/Investment Trends 2022 SMSF report found that younger investors are leading the surge in SMSF establishment rates and are more engaged with their superannuation. | | Read article | | | | | | | Why the ASX will continue to rise | | It's easy to forget about the long-term trajectory of share markets in a period of downturn. But if you're invested in equities for the long-term, know that markets will consistently trend upwards over time. | | Read article | | | | | | | What to do when interest rates change | | Recent RBA announcements are a reminder for investors to take stock of the risks they are taking, and to stay focused on their long-term goals. | | Read article | | | | Vanguard and its employees wish to acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout Australia where we operate our business. We recognise their connection to the land, water and culture and wish to pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
