Each week the NZ Herald and Newstalk ZB's Cooking The Books podcast tackles a different money problem. Today, it's how to brace for a market downturn. Hosted by Frances Cook.
Those who like to dabble in shares have had a dream run in recent years.
Prices have gone up, dividendshave been generous, and investors have happily raked in the returns.
But there's a chill wind starting to blow. There have been rumblings for the last couple of years that the good days are set to end, and market watchdogs are only getting more dire in their predictions.
I called Mark Fowler, head of investments at Hobson Wealth, for the latest Cooking the Books podcast.
We talked about how investing strategies can change in a downturn, the risk of a trade war, and how this will hit KiwiSaver investors.
For the interview, listen to the podcast.
