Protect and grow your portfolio as volatility grips global markets

Published 03/08/2023, 05:45 pm

Everyone wants to know how to make money. I get it. Sure, that's important.

But, there's something way more important than making money. It's holding onto it when markets turn sour. Protecting your capital should be your first and most pressing priority.

There's never been a better time to learn about the key macroeconomic factors impacting both markets and your portfolio than right now. This is where my Live Market Analysis webinars can help. Each week, I chat with investors looking to better understand global macroeconomics. From global stocks, to bonds, to forex and commodities, even crypto.

Each asset class impacts the other, and as we have seen this week, more than likely your portfolio. Apart from understanding these important interactions, it's also prudent to understand portfolio protections strategies such as hedging. Hedging involves strategically betting against a certain asset whose fall in price will compensate you for potential declines in the value of your portfolio.

In this week's Live Market Analysis Macro Edition, I talk you through in plain language the key macroeconomic factors impacting global markets right now, as well as strategies for how to hedge your portfolio from further downside market risk.
