Professional investors operate in a very different environment from individuals. Their careers, compensation, and business objectives are often tied to performance relative to a benchmark. They manage large pools of capital and are supported by teams of analysts, access to sophisticated data, and significant research resources. But those advantages also come with constraints that shape how they invest. We run through why these constraints might mean a mismatch between their opportunities and top picks, and yours.

After more than a decade where US technology stocks dominated global markets, late 2025 and early 2026 saw signs of a rotation. Less glamorous sectors like industrials and consumer staples, companies often considered ‘boring’ began to outperform the high-flying tech names that had captured investors’ attention for years. We revisit the work of Bob Haugen, a pioneering quantitative investor and academic who spent much of his career challenging a core assumption in finance: that higher risk should lead to higher returns. Haugen argued the opposite - that lower-volatility stocks often outperform higher-volatility stocks over time.

Australia’s financial system - through tax policy, superannuation and retirement benchmarks implicitly assume that retirees own their own homes. Home ownership dramatically changes the amount Australians need to save for retirement. So, what if you don’t own and rent in retirement? This is an increasingly likely scenario for many Australians given the state of our housing market. Mark and Shani run through potential solutions in this episode, and modelling for how to achieve a comfortable retirement.

Starting to invest in your 20s provides a powerful advantage through compounding, but investors in their 30s, 40s and 50s have significant opportunities to build wealth and meaningfully improve financial outcomes. Mark and Shani look at how to harness these advantages.

The issue with investing in broad market index products is that you are anything but a passive investor. Owning the market does not mean that you own everything equally. When you look closely, many of the most popular ETFs in Australia embed a set of structural bets that can materially shape outcomes over time. Mark and Shani run through these exposures in common passive ETFs, and alternatives for investors that need it.
