The Money Puzzle, with James Kirby

Too good to be true? A closer look at the 10% return on the ASX


Listen Later

Is it really this easy? You buy a share market index fund and it goes up by 10 per cent every year.....Hmm...Well, actually, the ASX 200 index is comprised of 50 per cent banks and miners: When they rise together, an index fund will fly high. But if the going gets tough, your share portfolio will not be as diversified as you may think. What's more, major problems are forming in the market where enormous amounts of money are pouring into stocks often because ETF algorithms are blindly following market momentum...how will it end?

Adviser Jack Tossol from the Partners Wealth Group joins Associate Editor - Wealth, James Kirby, in this episode.


In today's show, we cover...

  • The hidden dangers of index funds
  • Polluting the pond - New wave ETFs reintroduce risk
  • Ethically oblivious passive investing
  • Sophisticated investor rules should be scrapped
