Monthly View
Corporate earnings supported global equity markets in August
Global equities rose during August, supported by exceptionally strong corporate earnings and resilient economic activity. This occurred despite ongoing tensions in the Middle East and upward pressure on interest rates.
The global second quarter earnings season has been significantly stronger than expected and remains an important support for equity markets.
In the United States, the majority of companies in the S&P 500 exceeded earnings expectations. While technology and energy companies continue to lead the charge, the improvement has spread across a range of sectors.
Strong earnings have also been evident outside the United States. European companies have generally reported better-than-expected results, while Japanese corporate earnings growth has also remained strong.
New Zealand’s sharemarket gained 1.7% in August, taking the 12-month return to 8.4%. Supporting the market was positive economic data and corporate earnings updates.
The Australian sharemarket also rose, supported by a positive earnings season.
Longer-term inflation risks are weighing on bond markets, particularly longer-term government bond yields.
Supporting confidence in the outlook are strong company earnings, improving business activity, signs that underlying price pressures are becoming more manageable, and resilient economic growth. These influences appear to be outweighing the risks from higher long-term interest rates, elevated energy prices and ongoing geopolitical tensions.
Sound Financial Advice
John Bolsover at Mortgage Link Kapiti helped my partner and I arrange a mortgage for our first home. This can be a confusing and stressful process, but John made it clear and easy. He pairs extensive financial knowledge with a high degree of integrity and empathy- this made us very comfortable in the decisions we made. It is clear that John is not only a professional in this area, but has a distinct passion for providing sound advice. I would not hesitate to recommend John’s services to others in the situation of buying a first home, or those requiring any form of financial advice. He will certainly be our first choice going forward.

I received great professional and friendly service from John Bolsover of Mortgage Link Kapiti when he assisted my wife and I in choosing the most appropriate home loan renewal option when one of our loan accounts were due to roll over last month. John’s insightful recommendations that suited our families current financial situation including various ‘what if’ economic outlook scenarios that may play out within the 8 month – 1 year made the decision a more comfortable task for us, especially in these unprecedented times. All of his recommendations were backed up with clear financial analysis and John always responded immediately to any of our questions at all times, nothing was a problem for him. Above all, John’s integrity, which we always value when seeking professional services of any kind, shone brightly throughout the entire process. Thank you John.
