his edition of Trustnet
Magazine takes its cue from
A Christmas Carol – or
specifically the Ghosts of Christmas
Past, Present and Future who visit
Ebenezer Scrooge on Christmas Eve.
For the Ghost of Christmas Past,
I ask a selection of fund managers what advice they
would offer their younger selves if they could turn
back time; Cherry Reynard locks horns with the
Ghost of Christmas Present, as she finds out what
the experts have made of the past year and whether
the reality met their expectations; and Phil Scott is
visited by the Ghost of Christmas Future as he looks
at the prospects for every major sector and region in
the year ahead.
Our sector focus this month falls on Japan, as
Adam Lewis attempts to explain why its strong
performance this year isn’t just the latest in a long
line of false dawns, while as part of his regular
retirement series, John Blowers finds out that the
majority of people in the UK don’t have a clue about
how much money they will need in their pension
pot to retire comfortably.
Jeroen Huysinga of the JP Morgan Overseas IT
reveals which global stocks he is backing to thrive
regardless of the wider economic situation, while
Peter Walls may raise a few eyebrows with his
contrarian investment trust selection.
From everyone at Trustnet Magazine, have a great
Christmas and we will see you next year.
