Infrastructure advances in a high-inflation environment
by Alice Shen, Senior Associate - Investments & Capital Markets
2022 has not been the best year for equity investors thus far.

Australian Equity05 May 2022
On the 21st April, BHP announced its underwhelming production update while flagging further operational changes. Over the following week, BHP suffered double-digit falls, taking the S&P/ASX 200 with it. BHP’s influence on the returns of the S&P/ASX 200 increased when it became Australia’s biggest listed company following the unification with its UK listing earlier this year. This resulted in the ASX becoming more concentrated than any other major equities market. Concentration is the opposite of diversification, which is an important risk management tool for investors. That is why it is prudent to take the right approach when investing in Australian equities. Here we provide some insightful analysis for our popular Equal Weight ETF (MVW) versus the S&P/ASX 200.
