Back from Easter in Merimbula and the bull market continues. Today we look at what we have missed with a few market observations, some stock recommendations and one small bit of tinkering in the Income portfolio. We look at the ASX 200 VIX at the lowest level since 2018 which suggests that market complacency is high - a dangerous state of affairs but there's nothing to do until things change. For now its all happy in stock market land as the recent peak in interest rates takes away last month's major worry for the moment. We wait for something else to worry about - the Chinese GDP numbers on Friday perhaps, or the US results season starting Thursday, or our bank results season starting with BOQ on Thursday, or the US CPI number tonight. Lots of events to topple us as always, but lets not fear something going wrong, lets wait for it to go wrong. Until then...relax.
