Balancing act
Article Abstract:
Stock prices have been volatile, and this indicates that there is uncertainty about the impact of new technology on stock prices. Investment management principles normally used by fund managers, such as relating valuations for fair value a year ahead have ceased to be useful. The market is more concerned about the growth potential offered by new technology stocks. Portfolios cannot be balanced using a broad index for the market, since it is better to avoid some sectors.

Caution's in order but watch out for a flight to quality
Article Abstract:
There is a need for caution when investing in US stocks, and a flight to quality could take place. Emerging markets could be affected by a Chinese devaluation which could affect other Asian markets. There are widening bond yield spreads in the US, between corporate issues and treasuries. Emerging markets could be hit by lower exports if the Federal Reserve seeks to slow down US growth. US bond prices could rise and yields could fall, which would mean that equities appear cheaper. Meanwhile the investment style in the United Kingdom is showing a move toward defensive stocks.
