Market overview
In December 2015 the S&P/ASX All Ordinaries Accumulation Index climbed 2.6% to close the calendar year up a lacklustre 3.8%. The index was in negative territory for the first half of the month as global equity and commodity prices collapsed and the market factored in expectations of a United States rate increase, which came to fruition on 16 December. After early signs of strong Christmas spending, the market rallied in the final two weeks of the month rising almost 8%.
Australian employment data released in December was very strong, pointing to an increase of 71,000 jobs in November – one of the largest rises on record. However, the Federal Government released a downbeat mid-year economic and fiscal outlook (MYEFO), which saw Federal deficit projections downgraded by $26 billion to $108 billion over the next four years.
The Australian equities market has experienced a negative start to 2016 driven by renewed concerns around global growth, in particular out of China.
Our conservative cash weighting enables us to preserve capital in times of heightened volatility and provide the flexibility to pursue opportunities that arise.

Dividends
==> picture [142 x 105] intentionally omitted <==
On 30 October 2015, the Company paid a fully franked final dividend for FY15 of 2.5 cents per share. The Directors intend to pay an interim dividend in FY2016, which will be announced with the release of WAA’s half year results in February 2016, provided the Company has sufficient profit reserves and franking credits, and it is within prudent business practices. The Company’s ability to generate franking credits is dependent upon the receipt of franked dividends from investments and the payment of tax. Dividends are usually paid on a six-monthly basis and the dividend reinvestment plan is available to shareholders for both the interim and final dividend.
