| Hi Aris, Welcome to this week's edition of Smart Investing. 2024 was a stellar year for global share markets, with many investors achieving double-digit returns. In our lead article Vanguard's Senior Personal Finance Writer, Tony Kaye, crunches the numbers on how a $10,000 investment into eight different asset classes would have performed over the year. The results show why good diversification is critical to long-term investing success. In our second article, Vanguard's Chief Global Economist and Head of Investment Strategy Group, Dr Joe Davis, analyses the recent bout of volatility in U.S. technology stocks and warns of the potential risks and opportunities. Lastly, have you checked your investment portfolio today? Volatility can make some investors anxious, however our third article puts day-to-day market movements into perspective and uses the 30-year Vanguard Index Chart to show why staying the course gives you the best chance of investment success over the long term. | |
