Our Forecasts for the Australian and New Zealand stockmarkets are just Neutral to slightly Bullish, but many sharesoffer good value and there are signs that smaller company shares are starting to recover. Remain fully invested.
Over the medium to long term smaller company shares Stockmarket Forecasts
tend to outperform large company shares. There are several possible explanations for this: Large companies 60% (Neutral)
55% (Neutral)
tend to be mature businesses, so smaller companies have 65% (Bullish)
62% (Bullish)
greater long term growth potential. Or perhaps thereason is simply that large companies are widely followedand therefore fairly valued, while smaller companyshares are often neglected and tend to be under-valued.
If you pay less to buy a share (i.e. when it is under-valued) then your long term returns will be higher.
Smaller company shares, however, do not outperform larger company shares every year. In fact, NZ smaller company shares have just gone through a four yearperiod when they have under-performed NZ largercompany shares. The reason for this shorter termvariance in performance is fairly apparent. The fortunesof smaller companies tend to be more closely tied to thedomestic economy, while larger companies tend to haveexport markets and/or greater pricing power (e.g.
Auckland Airport, Telecom, the power companies) sosuffer less as the domestic economy slows.
Despite the poor performance of smaller company shares - a sector in which this newsletter often investsheavily - our Recommended Portfolio has far outperformed even the larger company indices over the So smaller companies have under-performed over the last four years anticipating the current economicslowdown. As we have written over recent months,these shares now offer good value, should experiencestronger profit growth when the economy eventuallyrecovers and will probably outperform larger companyshares over the next couple of years as the marketanticipates the next economic upturn.
There are clear signs that this recovery by smaller company shares has already started, with this sector strongly outperforming larger company shares over thelast four months.
"Performance Forecasts" are computer generated predictions of the relative future price performance of a company's shares over the next three to six months.
Performance Forecasts are calculated for every listed NZ share (except Investment Trusts) on a rating scale using the letters "A" (Highest potential for capital
appreciation over the next 3-6 months ), "B" (Above Average), "C" (Average), "D" (Below Average) and "E" (Lowest). These predictions are NOT buy or sell
recommendations, but can be useful to help time planned purchases or sales, or to identify shares worthy of further study and analysis.
