Sunrise on Venus
On Venus, each day stretches for nearly four months. With days so long, it’s easy to imagine growing used to day or night, rather than thinking of the next sunset. We’ve been through something similar in the investing world. A decade of low interest rates has left investors concentrated in expensive parts of markets. With valuations where they are, that makes the coming sunset risky. The force turning Venus is higher inflation, which changes everything in markets. Investors can prepare for sunrise by getting actually diversified, across economic exposures and styles within equities. Fortunately, many diversifying assets also trade at attractive valuations.
By the end of this session, delegates will be able to:
- Explain the long-term forces contributing to higher inflation
- Understand how inflation affects multi-asset portfolios and inflation-resilient assets
- Articulate the concentrations that have emerged in stockmarkets

Don’t put all your eggs in one basket
These are volatile, uncertain times following a period of trending markets since 2008. We’ll discuss how TAC appraises funds and features Advisers can look for.
