Quarterly Market Commentary September 2024 - Investors reassess positions amidst high valuations and potential corrections in stock prices
Welcome to the September 2024 issue of our Quarterly Market Commentary.
Looking back over the last quarter, global equities faced a notable downturn in August, with the US economy at the centre of investor scrutiny. Mixed economic indicators, inflationary pressures, and interest rate fluctuations contributed to widespread market anxiety. Concerns about a potential US economic slowdown prompted sell-offs across various sectors as investors reassessed their positions amidst high valuations and potential corrections in stock prices.
UK equities experienced a turbulent August, initially buoyed by a Labour Party election victory that sparked optimism for economic recovery. However, this optimism was short-lived as broader economic concerns and geopolitical tensions significantly declined the FTSE 100. Despite a promising start, the UK market faced challenges due to adverse economic data and diminishing investor confidence.
The Eurozone displayed resilience in July, with gains led by the healthcare, utilities, and real estate sectors. However, August shifted sentiment as global market downturns and economic apprehensions impacted the region. Political uncertainties, such as France's inconclusive parliamentary elections, added to the Eurozone's economic challenges and growth prospects.
In the US, August's downturn overshadowed July's initial market gains. Despite the Federal Reserve's potential rate cut and improved inflation data, concerns about a recession and political shifts, including President Biden's withdrawal from the presidential race, affected market dynamics. Investors recalibrated their expectations in response to these complex economic and political factors.
Japan's market experienced significant volatility, with the yen's appreciation impacting exporters and equity sectors. The Bank of Japan's rate hike supported the yen, while small-cap and value investments demonstrated resilience. Economic concerns contributed to further market fluctuations in August, highlighting the need for strategic diversification in investment portfolios.
Emerging markets showed resilience in July, benefiting from a weaker dollar and potential US rate cuts. However, challenges in China and Taiwan, along with currency depreciation in Turkey and interest rate delays in Poland, tempered gains. By August, increased volatility and geopolitical uncertainties reshaped the emerging market landscape, demanding adaptable investment strategies. Meanwhile, global bonds enjoyed a positive July, driven by dropping yields and central bank actions, though they faced renewed challenges in August due to economic concerns.
Welcome to our latest issue. As we embark on the new tax year, on page 08, we consider why reviewing your pension savings strategy presents an opportune moment, setting a solid foundation for future financial stability. Early attention to your private pension at the onset of the fiscal year is not just about cultivating beneficial saving habits; it's also about ensuring you take advantage of the benefits and allowances available to you.

Welcome to our November/December 2023 edition. As you sail into your 50s, it becomes pivotal to consider your financial strategy. Life has likely found a steady rhythm by now. Children have probably taken flight, becoming financially self-sufficient, and the idea of reducing work hours or even retiring completely starts to surface. Each person's life journey is unique and has different resources and challenges. However, there are shared goals and steps that one can take during this stage. On page 09, we consider how knowing where to begin can be daunting, whether you aim to maximise your earnings or lay down a robust financial plan.

Welcome to our September/October 2023 edition. In this issue, we look at investment bonds and explain how they offer several benefits that some investors may be missing out on, which have become even more beneficial due to recent changes in tax regulations. This follows last November’s Budget and the Chancellor’s decision to reduce the Capital Gains Tax (CGT) Allowance from £12,000 to £6,000 this year and to £3,000 in April 2024. This is likely to increase the appeal of investment bonds for some investors who want to minimise Inheritance Tax (IHT) liabilities when passing on wealth.

On page 08, we look at the way personal tax planning should be at the top of your agenda as the end of the current tax year is not too far away.

But it is essential to try to maintain a savings habit even in the current climate. In our latest Newsletter we look at the impact breaks in pension contributions could mean to savers by missing out on thousands of pounds in future that will mean less income during retirement.

Not only does this have a direct impact on people’s lifestyles, even though they are making every effort to cut back, but it has a knock-on effect on their lifelong goals such as owning a home or retiring comfortably. On page 05 new research highlights millions of people across the UK fear that the long-term impact of today’s rising living costs could see their life goals delayed or even missed altogether.

Welcome to our March/April 2022 magazine. Inside, we look at why now is the time to make sure you protect your wealth. The word ‘inflation’ had barely featured in the market’s vocabulary in the last three decades until it suddenly started to come back with a vengeance in 2021. As higher inflation looks set to persist throughout 2022, on page 09 we consider why finding ways to generate a return on investments greater than inflation will be a key investment theme – otherwise your wealth falls in real terms.

UKRAINE - RUSSIA CRISIS
Why investors should take a long-term perspective and not panic
On the 24 February the Russian President, Vladimir Putin, ordered a military invasion against Ukraine. A war that many considered unthinkable had begun. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has sent shockwaves through pretty much every asset class across the globe.
But if you are a long-term investor the best course of action for most individual investors is to keep calm and carry on.
Selling into a falling market is the opposite of what successful investors do. Equally important is the fact that no one knows what Russia’s invasion of Ukraine ultimately means for everything from energy prices to monetary policy. And then there’s the case that, historically speaking, stocks tend to recover quickly after being derailed by international turmoil.
Welcome to our latest edition. Inside, we look at New Year’s tax saving resolutions to make sure you are fully utilising your relevant tax planning opportunities. With the tax year end (5 April) on the horizon, taking action now may give you the opportunity to take advantage of any remaining reliefs, allowances and exemptions. On page 08 we have provided some key tax and financial planning tips to consider prior to the end of the tax year. Now is also the perfect time to take a wider review of your circumstances and plan for the year ahead.
