28 August 2019

The busiest time of the year for investors is over; fund managers are finally returning home to see their families, and investors no longer need to be as concerned about a portfolio holding rising or falling by 10% as the market opens. This August, just 22.4% of stocks covered by FNArena beating expectations, the weakest result in more than three years, with the ratio of beats to misses also sitting at multi-year lows. It’s not all bad news though, as the number of ratings upgrades improving significantly compared to February.
