| Read Sharenet's Market Outlook for 2019 then join our complimentary seminar to get ahead... The past year was a tough one for both SA and global markets. Politics and policy decisions with a direct negative impact on economic growth is a theme we carry into 2019. Investors are finding it difficult to shape expectations for the year. Risks often appear binary, with either a severely positive or negative outcome the result. We think that investors need to consider the risk and ask themselves: am I being adequately compensated for the risk? In equity markets, we think the current reward doesn’t justify the risk (FTSE/JSE All Share around 54 000). Considering you can earn 7.00% in cash and more from an income portfolio (see our article on income as a safe haven), we don’t think carrying a substantial amount of additional risk for an extra 2-3% is worth it. The market is volatile and uncertain, and resulting movements may provide more attractive entry points to equity markets. Is the market going into a big correction? We don’t think so, but also don’t see a case for great upside potential. In this article we will give you our take on where the market currently stands, what can be expected for 2019 and the largest risks that are potential stumbling blocks to our outlook.
