Listen now
Description
As the world sits by wondering if we are all having a bad dream and hoping to wake from it post haste, we are forced to face the consequences of a pandemic which doesn't seem to have an end in sight. One of the main areas that has taken a huge hit from its wrath, is our finances. As an investor, no doubt you have had to take a good look at the asset classes you have within your portfolio as you contemplate the inevitable losses you would have observed in some categories. This week’s episode explores, "Rationalizing your Portfolio in a Pandemic" with Shelly-Ann Morgan, Manager, Investment Client Services, Sagicor. Some of what we looked at were: What is portfolio rationalization? Given the season we are in globally, is it a time to add new ones to existing portfolios or reinvest into previous bets? How do we map out our portfolios? Is it by sector, dividend paying, market cap, price to sales, p/e? What are some stock screeners we can use to analyse our portfolio? And lots more.
