 | Welcome to this week's edition of Smart Investing.
We're pleased to announce the launch of the 2023 Vanguard Index Chart today. It captures 30 years of Australian and global investment markets history between 1 July 1993 and 30 June 2023.
Most importantly, in the context of ongoing economic and geopolitical uncertainty, the annual Vanguard Index Chart is a timely reminder of why broad diversification is the most effective antidote for markets volatility.
Our lead article looks at the real value of time in the market, showing the financial returns of six major asset classes based on an initial $10,000 investment in 1993.
Our second article explains how a simple ongoing investment strategy can deliver substantial returns over the long term. One example shows how $1,000 would have grown to $775,000 over 30 years.
Lastly, following the recent release of our How Australia Retires report, we focus on the importance of investing and having good asset diversification, even during retirement.
