Fidelity Sound Bites: Paul Taylor

Paul Taylor | Have rate rises done enough?

Donald Trump is the 47th president of the United States, in a landslide victory for the Republican party. As markets get more certainty, what are the potential impacts of macroeconomic policies, tariffs, and global trade dynamics for investors?

We are excited this month to bring you Fidelity’s Global Head of Macro and Strategic Allocation, Salman Ahmed, to discuss the implications of the recent US election results looking closely at the impact of tariffs on inflation, China's economic stimulus measures, and the broader implications for markets and equity sectors. Salman also shares his insights on the risks to our previous soft-landing scenario and why he is optimistic about equity markets amidst the evolving economic landscape.

We’d love to hear from you! If you have any topics or speakers you would like to see on the show, email us at podcastsaustralia@fil.com

Australia's Magnificent Six?

While the issue of inflation remains the same, this year it appears the winners are different. From Coles reducing theft to Wise Tech, Pro Medicus, and REA Group leading the charge toward efficiency, tech and tech-savvy companies are driving productivity across industries and helping fight rising costs. But that’s not all our Aussie PM’s came away with from reporting season.

Paul Taylor, James Abela and Casey McLean are back and uncovering which companies are thriving, which are struggling, the surprising market dynamics playing out and the challenges the ASX may face as we head into 2025.
