Money Matters
Double whammy for your money?
The man in the mirror I talked to last month is back again.
He promised to tell me the investments his convictions say we should make now. He tells me markets
are volatile and heading for a major fall. So he suggests after holding cash in the bank for emergencies
that 80% of our pension funds and other monies need to be in Gilts and Global Bond funds. These
holdings could well rise in value when the market tumbles. Then use the volatile market to become a
‘profit taker’ so invest 20% in risky funds that rise and fall rapidly – every time your funds rise by 5%
press the button and take just the profit in cash. Have a pile of cash ready to buy in at
lower prices as markets fall leaving the original funds invested. This way when the
markets correct, or fall, you will have the cash to buy in low and profit when the
market rises again. So double whammy – 80% of your funds should rise when
the market falls and profits from the balance, use a profit taking strategy to
gear up larger profits as the markets rise again.
