Shares should be front of mind

Geelong Advertiser - 26 Jan. 13

Months ago I mentioned that markets had moved past the time when investing in cash was wise, and that we had entered the part of the investment cycle when investors needed to look at the share market again. Right now, interest rates and cash returns are at all time lows and, if recent reports are correct, are likely to fall further this year. When one investment "vehicle" subsides it creates opportunities in other areas. However, most people fan to recognize this and therefore fan to achieve their goals. Wise investors know that they should always be looking at the next stage of the investment cycle for opportunities...

I make decisions about trading and investing in a very similar way as I make business decisions...

Wealth Within chief analyst Dale Gillham said, while it was an oxymoron to believe that a share price of about a dollar was a bargain, there were a couple of stocks that he liked in the region, including Arrium (previously OneSteel), Fairfax and Billabong. "OneSteel’s only trading at around $0.75" he said. "A really good, well-managed company it’s quite cheap at the moment. "I’ve been talking about Fairfax for the last five or six weeks, especially now that it’s looking like it’s trying to offload Trade Me NZ to cash itself up.  If you ask me to put a stock on my list of dark horses for 2013 it would he Fairfax...
