Investment Outlook: Looking forward to 2016

The year started off strongly, the S&P/ASX 200 rose quickly on another RBA interest rate cut and the European Central Bank (ECB) deploying their long awaited quantitative easing (QE) program,the index closed a touch under 6,000 in April. However, investor sentiment turned quickly as the debt negotiation in Greece, slowdown and uncertainty of Chinese growth and the increasing expectations of an increase in the US Fed Funds rate halted the rally.

Since then the market has traded in fits and starts. While volatility has yet to be fully contained, Morgans think the fundamentals in place for 2016 will support the equity market.
