Morningstar UK: Podcasts

Guide to Investing in 2019

Welcome to the podcast from Morningstar UK, the leading provider of investment news, views and analysis. This week we analyse the impact of this week’s UK Budget Report and how to navigate falling global stock markets. Let’s start with the Budget. Whilst Phillip Hammond’s announcements of tax reductions and spending measures may boost Britain’s high street retailers, the positive impact on investors is likely to be limited says Morningstar Investment Management’s Dan Kemp. Now on to global markets. During times of uncertainty even the most experienced of fund managers get scared of volatile markets. Up next, Aberdeen Standard's Hugh Young explains his fears about a trade war are justified, but says investors should stay the course or they risk missing the recovery.  Our next guest, Michele Hardeman, Head of Global Markets for Asia Pacific for State Street, explains to our Senior International Editor, Emma Wall, how falling emerging market currencies have impacted investor confidence. China shares have had their worst October in a decade, and the sell-off recently was the largest since January 2016 - is the fear warranted? And how does this impact the value of other emerging market countries? Morningstar Investment management’s Cyrique Bourbon is up next to explain So how do we go about finding value in troubled Emerging markets? Our next guest, T Rowe Price's Ernest Yeung says we should look for stocks which are uncorrelated to trade war fears and US central bank policies.   FTSE and MSCI have announced plans to include more mainland China listed shares in their indices. Morningstar's Director of ETF Research in Asia, Jackie Choy, is up next to explain the impact this has for passive fund investors Most of the money in emerging market bond tracker funds and ETFs is linked to JP Morgan benchmarks, so the bank’s plans to include Gulf nations such Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, United Arab Emirates and Bahrain from January 2019 will have an impact on investors tracking those indexes explains Morningstar’s Jose Garcia Zarate. What are thematic ETF’S and why should we be wary of them? Robotics, ESG, artificial intelligence - thematic ETFs are growing in popularity. But investors should look before they leap says Morningstar's Kenneth Lamont And that’s the end of this edition.

Navigating the Budget and Falling Markets

Welcome to the podcast from Morningstar UK, the leading provider of investment news, views and analysis.

Our first guest, - Michael Metcalfe, Head of Global Macro Strategy at State Street, likens a no deal or hard Brexit to a natural disaster that it will inflict serious damage on the UK economy. Donald Trump's tax reforms will cause inflation and this will cause interest rates to rise, but dwindling liquidity is a concern too, says Jeff Boswell, Manager, Investec Global Total Return Credit Fund. Continuing with president Trump, Somerset Capital's Ed Lam says you can't ignore political risk when investing in emerging markets, and so is favouring India and investing away from Trump's tariffs. Our next guest is Olufemi Mada, Senior investment Analyst for Morningstar investment Management who talks to us about why it has been a difficult 2018 for emerging market bonds. Specifically, he discusses how Turkey and Argentina are only a small proportion of the bond market - but their current problems have impacted returns across the asset class.

Brexit, Emerging Market Politics and Trump

Welcome to the podcast from Morningstar UK, the leading provider of investment news, views and analysis. This week we’re focusing on the Impact a No Deal Brexit could have on the Markets. UK Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab and EU Chief Negotiator Michel Barnier are currently locked in crunch talks over the future of the Britain’s trade terms with the European Union. With Brussels admitting there is “no plan B” for a no-deal Brexit, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Should investors shun UK assets and seek shelter in US assets if there is a no deal Brexit.

Investing Through Stock Market Volatility

Welcome to the podcast from Morningstar UK, the leading provider of independent investment research. This week we take a look at how the economy is fairing in 2017 and ask why you should care about environment, social and governance concerns when investing. Lets dive straight in to our interview with our first guest. Emma Wall, Senior Editor for Morningstar.co.uk speaks with Keith Wade, Chief Economist for Schroders, about the outlook for global economic growth and what threatens expansion. With construction data looking weak, and UK GDP forecasts downgraded, should you be worried about the impact of slow growth on your portfolio? To discuss we have up next Tim Graf, Head of Macro Strategy, EMEA for State Street. Economic growth may be downgraded and UK politics may be in turmoil but Britain's chief executives remain positive explains Phil Harris, Manager of the EdenTree UK Equity Growth Fund up next. The further markets climb the fewer gains there are to be had. Morningstar Investment Management's Mike Coop says investors should be cautious and prepare your portfolio for turbulence. When we make investments, financial return is of course very important to us but it is also important to consider the impact such investments may have on our world. Sustainable investing considers environmental, social and governance factors when going about trying to make financial gains.   Environmental issues could be the impact a company has on the environment or how it’s trying to improve the environment with, for example, renewable energy. Social factors include how a company deals with issues such as how fairly it treats and pays its workers, whether partners and suppliers have similar values to their own and governance issues encompasses how well the whole organisation is run from a board level. Is the company accurate and transparent in its financial affairs? Is the company behaving fairly to its shareholders and allowing them to vote on important issues? Or is the company at risk to bribery and corruption? Many people have this belief that investing in this way will lead to inferior returns but Peter Michaelis, Head of Sustainable Investing for Liontrust is up next to tell us why this is not always the case and that investors do not have to choose between ethics and profits     Can an ESG Fund Hold Energy and Tobacco Stocks? JP Morgan's Joanna Crompton is up next to explain her best in class approach to sustainable investing, and why all companies should be ESG compliable.   Our final guest on todays podcast is ESG investor Camilla Ritchie who runs the 7IM Sustainable Balance Fund.
