Newsletter – April 2022

This issue covers broadening Booster’s direct investments in attractive, unlisted NZ assets – FleetPartners.

This month our theme is why things still feel sluggish despite indicators suggesting that the NZ economy is entering the early stages of recovery.

Our theme this month is diversification. Diversifying investments can mitigate risk by balancing the ups and downs of individual shares, and individual countries to reduce their impact on your entire portfolio. A diversified portfolio is more resilient because it’s designed to capture growth while providing relative security during market downturns.

This month we unpack what a tariff is, and some of the ways we manage portfolios during uncertain times like this.

This issue covers our human nature of feeling twice as much pain from an investment loss as we do pleasure from a gain, and while it can be tempting to view our investments daily, the key to long-term investment success is being invested over the longer term.

This month our theme is comparing the NZ and US stock markets, to highlight the benefits of diversification.
