Outlook 2012, part 2: Australia, the American revival and the European survival

Members Only This Insight offering is Part 2 of our 2012 Overview series. Next week we will focus on global and local economics as the final instalment. This Insight covers our 2012 forecasts for the SP500 (our global proxy) and the All Ordinaries index and the context and background to these forecasts. Any forecast is a prediction and calculation related to future events. The future is difficult to predict both in relation to time and dimension. Therefore, the underlying hypothesis has to be set out so that as events unfold and time passes, the forecasts can be measured to provide confidence or provoke action. Exercise caution in your affairs as the jury is divided on prospects for the year ahead.
