The big risk for Australia's equity market

What would you nominate as the single biggest risk to the local stock market right now? In an interview at a recent event held by Iress and Livewire, we asked Brad Matthews, who consults to Advisors and Managers on asset allocation, for his view.

He told us: “In relative terms, we're a little bit more bearish on the Australian outlook. Generally, I think the big risk, and it's the one everyone's talking about, is the housing downturn”.

In this short segment from the discussion with Livewire's James Marlay, Brad outlines his perspective and discusses the negative flow-on effects for different areas of the economy and the markets.

Watch the short video, or read the transcript, for the experts' perspective.
