Greg Peel is scheduled to return after Australia Day.<\/p>\n

Overnight price action was quiet and mixed while US investors had a day off thus no firm direction was coming from either US treasuries or equity markets. Bond futures are signalling the yield on US treasuries hasn't peaked just yet.<\/p>\n

Australian investors used the relative quiet yesterday to scoop up some beaten-down shares as Wesfarmers reported there is no need to start panicking about omicron and supply chains just yet.<\/p>\n

Not that Inghams Group would necessarily agree with that sentiment, or Bega Cheese for that matter.<\/p>\n

China surprised with a rate reduction yesterday as its economy continues to generate soft data, even though forecasts were beaten with yesterday's Q4 GDP number.<\/p>\n

It did not help iron ore. Most base metals faced more selling orders too, but oil and precious metals stood their ground.<\/p>\n

SPI futures are suggesting investors locally are of the intent to buy more bargains ahead of the February reporting season, soon upon us.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Australian retirees might do themselves one big favour and read the latest announcement made by US powerhouse JP Morgan. The banking giant is attempting to outspend all the fintechs combined that keep chipping away at core markets and clientele.<\/p>\n

The underlying message is the future ahead requires investing; lots of it. Survival of the fittest has become a genuine contest, and this is but the early stage of the industry challenge that is building, globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
