Surviving volatility

Periods of volatility such as the one we’re experiencing are unnerving even for the most experienced of investors, with falls on the S&P/ASX at the beginning of March the greatest since the GFC. But on the other hand, history has taught us that what goes down doesn’t always stay down. So as investors, should we ride it out, what are the areas for real concern and what can we learn from the past?

Join him for a candid conversation about the current environment, insights from the recent reporting season and the impact of coronavirus on Australian companies.
