2012 and Beyond - A List of Lists

Shane Oliver, AMP's Head of Investment Strategy & Chief Economist

This note provides a summary of key views on the global economy and the investment outlook for 2012 and beyond. Key points are as follows:

  • 2012 is likely to be a better year than 2011.
  • Watch European bond yields, Chinese money supply growth and the US ISM index.
  • The emerging world remains in good shape.
  • Even if the world does spiral into recession (which is unlikely), Australia will likely continue to grow.
  • The A$ will remain strong on a medium-term basis, i.e. around parity and beyond.
  • Medium-term returns are likely to remain constrained and volatile.
  • There is still a cycle and investors should focus on assets providing decent and sustainable yields.
