Learning Objective

  • Assess inflation's role in economic policies and strategies.
  • Interpret interest rate movements across key global markets.
  • Examine hedge fund strategies and their associated risks.
  • Explore long-term inflation and stagflation contributors.
  • Evaluate investment strategies under current geopolitical conditions.

Course Overview

The financial markets directly impact our lives, influencing interest rates on personal debt, loans, and mortgages and affecting investment performance, job opportunities, and economic security during times of boom and recession. Whether you find the financial markets fascinating or irritating, understanding their influence is crucial if you work with clients in any financial capacity. This quarterly update provides an intelligent discussion of the current economic outlook, equipping you with the knowledge to discuss financial markets and economies effectively with your clients and colleagues.

Whether you actively follow investment performance or manage some of your investments, maintaining a macro view of the global economic landscape is vital. Analysing and comparing your broker's perspective is a significant advantage. It's worth noting that market events drive 75% of movements in individual stocks and are not directly associated with the stocks themselves. Therefore, awareness of the economic conditions affecting your assets is essential if you manage a portfolio. 

Major Topics Covered:

  • Global Economic Landscape Overview
  • Geopolitical Impacts on Investments
  • Emerging Market Opportunities
  • Commodity Price Action Insights
  • Future Economic Outlook Projections

This economic update, led by Peter Brown, a highly respected market professional with over 40 years of experience in major financial institutions, offers a deep dive into the key events driving current market trends. While not overly technical, it demystifies complex issues that influence markets, often overlooked by mainstream media. The course covers all asset classes, including stocks, bonds, and commodities, providing an analysis of current price action and an outlook for the near future. This comprehensive overview will equip you with the knowledge to engage in informed conversations about their financial standing with clients.

EXCELLENT!!!! I just signed up for the rest of his webinars. And it was great to see his handouts which most instructors do not have. It should be a requirement for all instructors.
