Following the high inflation and low growth period of the 1970s – when stocks and bonds did very poorly – inflation pressures finally subsided as did high interest rates. Furthermore, we had a massive period of peaceful prosperity and globalisation, enabling lower prices and greater economic efficiency. This created excellent conditions for most asset classes to flourish and with it growth orientated static Strategic Asset Allocation (SAA) portfolios and low-cost index funds.

This is no small issue because – contrary to a market consensus – the coronavirus (COVID-19) is actually a real threat to complacent equity markets and client portfolios. It is a global health pandemic which requires active management in the real world, and which should also be risk managed by your adviser or super fund. The coronavirus and its real-world management should not simply be dismissed as just another flu, and could even be the catalyst which bursts the global asset bubble.

With bond rates and cash rates now at historic lows, there is no longer much yield or return that one can expect from a long-term investment in these. Furthermore, the likelihood of losing money over time in real terms is now higher, given it now requires little inflation to overcome the mediocre expected return from historically low yields. Unfortunately, such a situation reflects lacklustre economies and is the end result of market returns being pulled forward by government intervention. Traditional defensive investments have simply become a tool of government policy as governments attempt to prolong an ‘artificial’ economic expansion.  [Read More](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/is-there-another-way-to-play-defence) [![Abormal 800px](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/hubfs/Abormal%20800px.jpg) ](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/the-new-abnormal-for-portfolio-management) ## [The new abnormal for portfolio management](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/the-new-abnormal-for-portfolio-management) By [Jerome Lander](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/author/jerome-lander) | Jan 24, 2019 11:20:02 AM | [risk adjusted returns](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/tag/risk-adjusted-returns), [financial planner services](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/tag/financial-planner-services), [managed investment portfolio](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/tag/managed-investment-portfolio), [investment approach](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/tag/investment-approach) - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) The market environment has changed. Yet most advisers’ portfolios have not. They may want to adapt fast if they want their clients better suited to the new market environment - assuming they’re not going to unduly suffer more weak returns going forward as they did in 2018.

A bubble in debt markets, a bubble in property, a bubble in equity, a bubble in private assets, and a bubble in the way portfolios are managed. This is an artificially created result of easy monetary and fiscal policies that have been employed by global governments for many years now in an effort to boost asset prices (successfully). These policies appear unsustainable in the long term. If something can’t be sustained, then eventually it won’t be… [Read More](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/the-bubble-in-everything-and-how-to-manage-it) [![Roller coaster](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/hubfs/Roller%20coaster.jpg) ](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/making-money-through-the-cycle) ## [Making Money Through the Cycle](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/making-money-through-the-cycle) By [Jerome Lander](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/author/jerome-lander) | Jan 24, 2019 10:32:53 AM | [risk adjusted returns](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/tag/risk-adjusted-returns), [financial planner services](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/tag/financial-planner-services), [managed investment portfolio](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/tag/managed-investment-portfolio), [investment approach](https://www.dynamicasset.com.au/investor-articles/tag/investment-approach) - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) The recent equity market rally in response to dovish FED language again highlights how dependent equity markets are on government stimulus and sugar hits.
