Winter chores for your wealth plan

Seasons of Wealth – Winter

A wintery economy brings chores and opportunities

We are surrounded by cycles, some fast, others so slow we never see a change in our lifetime, but they are there. Climate change, for example, has been happening for millennia – it is nothing new (pollution is though of course). Somehow, every time winter comes round, especially a nasty cold front, we are caught unawares – gas bottles empty, no beanies and only salad in the fridge. The markets also go through cycles, while less predictable in timing than the four seasons, they keep on happening. Right now, for us in the Emerging markets, the winds are decidedly cool and the returns flattening, soon to turn negative for the year-on-year if it keeps up this pace.  You can read the full blog Here; http://kerenga.com/wealth_cycle_winter/

The Myth of Passive Income

Everyone clamours after passive income. The thought of having money flow into your account, day and night with no effort, is intoxicating. Thousands of bestsellers have been written about it, but don’t be fooled, it is also very hard to do properly or quickly. In one way or another, most of us trade our time for money.

Wealth Ecology, Week 42 2016

Once again, just as the Rand looks set to improve, the Hawks fly in and much it all up again. The All Share also took a knock. The USA is preoccupied with their elections but as soon as the results are announced, irrespective of which candidate wins, the volatility in the market is likely to increase.

The Rand continues to look good, but markets drifting lower. No interest increase for now, or perhaps for the rest of the year. If you want to get the newsletter contact me on dawn@kerenga.com.
