Market overview

The S&P/ASX All Ordinaries Accumulation Index fell 2.3% for the month of June, to finish the financial year up 2.0%. Utilities and healthcare were the best performing sectors for the financial year while energy, materials and financials detracted.

Globally, the surprise Brexit vote saw a surge in financial market volatility. Financial markets were pricing in a ‘remain’ vote, resulting in a violent sell off in equities across global markets following the outcome. The US Federal Reserve saw a dovish shift in commentary in the June minutes after a softer than expected jobs number and, coupled with the Brexit vote, is now not expected to raise rates until 2017.

Concerns around the implications of Brexit eased in the last few days of the month, which saw a rebound in global equity markets to see the Australian market finish in the black for the year, with expectations of further global stimulus in the coming months.

We continue to find market driven trading opportunities in these volatile markets and our current cash weightings ensure we are well positioned to seize these opportunities as and when they arise.
