Hi Aris, Welcome to this week's edition of Smart Investing. It has been a tumultuous week on global financial markets following the Trump administration's U.S. tariffs announcement on 3 April (Australian time). Events are continuing to unfold from day-to-day, and the extent to which global economic growth will be impacted remains uncertain. Vanguard's Global Chief Economist, Joe Davis, today points to lower U.S. growth and higher inflation, and notes that now is the time for investors to stay disciplined. Read his article, Amid turbulence, a new U.S. economic outlook. Meanwhile, history shows that it’s time in the market, not trying to time markets, and broad diversification across sectors, asset classes, and markets that create a steadier path for investors to achieve long-term financial success. In our second article, Three volatility charts to keep you on course, we highlight the importance of staying invested and focusing on the long-term when markets are volatile. Lastly, despite the current volatility on share markets, we are now seeing record numbers of new investors opening Vanguard Personal Investor Accounts. Data released by the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) yesterday shows Vanguard consolidated its position as Australia's largest ETFs assets manager over the March quarter, with over $11 billion being added into ASX-listed exchange traded funds.
