Shani Jayamanne is a Director, Investment Specialist at Morningstar Australia.
Shani’s Future Focus column is published every Wednesday. Shani is on annual leave at the moment, so last week’s Future Focus was a re-run of the column’s first ever edition.
In this installment, Shani looked at ways that superannuation legislation is tilted against lower income Australians. Is our supposedly world-class system actually letting down society’s most vulnerable people? See what Shani thinks here.
Joseph Taylor is an Associate Investment Specialist, Morningstar Australia.
Investors have been bombarded with headlines about how the ‘game has changed’. Joseph argued that the principles of sound investing haven’t actually changed at all. In his featured article last week, he shared five principles that investors can hold on to in volatile times.
Joseph also looked into why our analyst Shaun Ler removed Perpetual’s moat rating but remains optimistic about the company’s low valuation. Read why here.
If you have a question about any of the stocks or industries in our Australian coverage, please email it to joseph.taylor@morningstar.com. Select questions will be put to the analyst covering the stock and may be published in a future Ask the analyst article.

Sim’s Young & Invested column is published every Thursday. This time, Sim shared how she has been investing through the recent market volatility and what best practices younger investors can employ to keep them on the path to build wealth. Read it here.
Sim continued to pick up Shani’s usual Chart of the week column. This time she shared a chart from our banking analyst on loan growth in the Aussie market.
Mark LaMonica, CFA is Director of Personal Finance, Morningstar Australia.
Mark’s column Unconventional wisdom is published every Monday. This week, Mark examined potential biases in the ‘buy the dip’ mindset and questioned whether today’s share markets are ‘cheap’ purely because they have fallen in value recently. Read it here.
Many retirees quickly shift a large portion of their savings to defensive assets upon finishing work. Mark explored whether there is a safe way for retirees to target higher returns at this stage in life.
