Markets on the rise as Trump’s victory brings certainty

By Ken Fisher, The Australian, Friday, December 13, 2024

Global tariffs! A tax cut boom! Trade war! As president-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration approaches, bulls and bears wage war over what his combination of allegedly pro-growth tax plans and protectionism means for world stocks. Bears believe the ASX’s climb since election day is like dancing blindfolded on the Bunda Cliffs, with tariffs set to hit hard. Bulls say the post-election rally proves Trump is great for markets.

Don’t worry about climate change – markets don’t

By Ken Fisher, The Telegraph, Thursday, December 12, 2024

What do these all have in common: Bank of England and Federal Reserve rate cuts; Britain’s burgeoning debt load; climate change; fertility crises and demographic doom? None of them matter to share prices. Sound crazy? Hear me out. Many think that all these and more matter greatly, and, yes, they can – if your mortgage continues beyond its fixed-rate period, rate wiggles immediately hit your finances.

降息真的能助漲股市?錯!央行政策影響甚微

By Ken Fisher, Business Weekly, Thursday, December 5, 2024

分析師們呼籲:「央行必須降息!」他們深信台灣經濟和台股亟須降息刺激,尤其是在美國準總統川普發表了「令人擔憂」的關稅言論之際。 美國聯準會自九月以來已降息三碼,全球其他決策單位也都採取類似的「寬鬆」政策,這似乎意味著台灣央行必須跟進。 錯!儘管外界議論不斷,但實際上央行並不能決定經濟或股市的走向。許多人感嘆央行以通膨「太黏」為由而無作為,請忽視這些炒作言論。

Pas de panique ! Si je ne dispose pas encore de prévisions officielles, il existe de nombreuses raisons de douter des prévisions les plus pessimistes pour 2025. Voici pourquoi.

Was wirklich zählt, ist der richtige Fokus – wie bei Aktien

By Ken Fisher, Handelszeitung, Wednesday, December 4, 2024

SNB-Zinsbewegungen. Klimawandel. US-Schulden. Der neueste schwache Wirtschaftsbericht. Bedeutende Gewinnmeldungen. Europas Ertrags-«Krisen». Was haben all diese Themen gemeinsam? Nichts, was für Aktien wirklich von Bedeutung wäre. Aktien sind weder kurz- noch weitsichtig. Sie wägen Faktoren ab, die die Gewinne in den nächsten drei bis dreissig Monaten beeinflussen, und ignorieren meistens kurzfristiges Gerede und alle extrem langfristigen Prognosen. Lassen Sie mich dies erklären.

By Ken Fisher, Diamond, Wednesday, December 4, 2024

 「勝負は決まったも同然!(It’s all over but the shouting!)」というこの古い諺は、11月5日の米大統領選の余波を完璧に捉えている。だがドナルド・トランプ次期大統領の勝利により、世界中の評論家の騒ぎは始まったばかりかもしれない。多くの人々は、彼の関税を巡る強硬発言や米国第一のスタンスが貿易に…そして東証株価指数(TOPIX)に有害だと考える。
