Tradeview Capital CEO Ng Zhu Hann says besides staying away from overvalued growth stocks, it is better to put a good percentage of investments into liquid assets that can be easily cashed out should there be a sudden need for capital.
STAY invested, and ignore the gyrations of early August. It was mainly caused by the Bank of Japan raising the benchmark interest rate, leading to a sharp increase in the yen, thus unravelling the yen carry trade, which is mostly over now.
It has been a record year of elections globally. This, as well as conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, will remain a major concern for investors. This will also include risks in policy shifts as governments change hands or incumbents choose to implement initiatives to stay in power.
