Investment advice is all about expertise and trust combined with timing: shown below are just a few of the calls our commentators have made that have generated substantial returns to subscribers, or saved them from losing money.
The Bank That Kept On Giving
In-house economist Adam Carr made the bold call to Eureka Report subscribers that the Commonwealth Bank of Australia had further room for expansion in his article in January 2013, back when many in the financial advice industry were calling the bank a sell. He staunchly defended CBA as a standout investment among the major banks despite it having already surged nearly 160% since the 2009 trough. Since then CBA has repeatedly beat analyst expectations – it gained roughly 20% over the calendar year 2013 and delivered higher dividends to yield hungry investors. Following our call the investors who stuck with CBA were paid off handsomely and in the process became shareholders in one of the world’s biggest banks.

Golden Timing
Eureka Report subscribers who heeded Tim Treadgold’s investment advice about gold a year ago would have been protected from the yellow metal’s slump throughout calendar 2013, the first decline in more than a decade. While investment funds and investors were building stockpiles of gold in fear of the inflationary effects of so-called ‘quantitative easing’, Tim was warning investors that physical gold bullion was going to quickly lose its appeal as investors sought out higher yielding assets. At the time, gold was sitting at one of its highest points, at over US$1,700 an ounce. Now, after a year of steep gains in the equities market, investors who missed the early signals are selling their gold positions at a capital loss.

House Party
Eureka Report contributor Louis Christopher, one of Australia’s most respected property analysts, recognised early that interest rates would fall further. After a flat period in 2012 he promised 2013 would be a good year for property investors as successive rate cuts fuelled activity in the asset class. Since then the Reserve Bank of Australia has cut interest rates three times, to 50-year lows of 2.5%, propelling growth in the residential property market to its highest point in four years. Across the nation in calendar 2013 residential property investors gained on average 7%, with Sydney recovering faster than any other city. For our property investors, a clear call to re-engage with residential property has paid off nicely.
