The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: Bitcoin, gold and inflation
Russ Mould, Investment Director of A J Bell, looks at Elon Musk's role in the collapse of the price of Bitcoin. He ponders the different behaviours of the cryptocurrency and gold of late, pondering why there has been so little interest in the real metal when it would normally come to the fore with such government and central bank profligacy. He looks at the behaviour of other commodities and discusses where we now are with thoughts on inflation.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: The advantages private investors have over fund managers
Russ Mould, Investment Director of A J Bell, considers the reaction of equity markets to growing concerns about inflation. Having discussed this very possibility here for some time, Russ points out some of the advantages private investors have over fund managers. If they can conquer the Fear Of Missing Out then they not only don't have to follow the herd but don't have to be invested at all. He points out some areas investors could look at if they are concerned about inflation and even suggests one very bold call - commercial real estate.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: Will commodities soar instead of stocks?
In the light of market reaction to Janet Yellen's comments about inflation, Russ Mould, Investment Director of A J Bell, asks if markets are at a major turning point. If inflation is making a comeback, what would the effect be for equities? Should investors be thinking about real assets rather than paper assets? With, apparently, 41% of US household assets now in the stock market, are equities exhibiting too much exuberence?

The Financial Outlook for Personal investors: How to spot the next round of market winners
Russ Mould, Investment Director of A J Bell, applies Sir John Templeton's dictum on the four stages of bull markets to suggest how investors can spot the next round of market winners – and dodge the losers. He compartmentalises the market's sectors into those suffering pessimism, scepticism, euphoria and optimism and suggests how investors might be able to suppress their natural instinct to follow the herd; as Warren Buffett said, "You cannot buy what is popular and do well".

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: Where will the FTSE go now?
Russ Mould, Investment Director at A J Bell, marvels at the recovery of the FTSE to a higher level than it stood before the pandemic hit the UK.

Now with a 3.5% yield and dividends growing rapidly, Russ assesses the FTSE's growth prospects and says that your outlook will be coloured by whether you feel the UK is out of the pandemic woods yet or not.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: Why trend-following may trump fundamental analysis
Tim Price of Private Value Partners explains why he thinks technical analysis - particularly trend-following - may be a more useful discipline than fundamental analysis. He recounts the anecdote of the true-life counterparts of the film Trading Places, with so-called novice investors, called "turtles", taught an investment system, with many of them becoming hugely successful. He points out the downside of index investing and believes that the early warning of problems with the world's burgeoning debts may first be seen in the foreign exchange markets, which central banks are not big enough to control.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: Why value investors need patience - lots of it
Tim Price, director of Price Value Partners, looks at why benchmarking to stock market indices is a bad idea and why investors should think more about the preservation of capital than chasing the latest market fads. Tim discusses the surge of interest in cryptocurrencies, why gold is less rampant and why value investors, of which he is one, need considerable patience. Citing the ignominious debut of Deliveroo amongst other things, Tim senses the market may be on the point of a big change of sentiment.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: Small caps as a market indicator
Russ Mould, investment director of A J Bell, looks at the performance of small cap companies. After a year of outperformance, of late they have come off the boil. He looks at their potential for being the acorns from which big businesses might emerge but also considers whether their recent lack of lustre might be a useful leading indicator.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: One year on from the market low
One year on from the market lows of March 2020, Russ Mould, Inestment Director of A J Bell, looks at what has done best - and what has done worst - in the 12 months since. In retrospect, he points out, what seemed to be the safest areas when everything was bleakest turned out to be the most dangerous. Explaining why first Asian and then Emerging Markets have done well, he says that, within the UK, the sectors that have performed best have been oil and financials.
