The McKees are all swimming in the Head Above Water Swimathon at Collaroy Rock Pool on Saturday 5th March. This is our 4th year in a row (and it has rained every time!). We are aiming to be down at the pool around 5pm’ish. This is a fantastic community event raising funds for mental health initiatives via the Gotcha4Life Foundation. Any donations would be much appreciated!

The McKees are all swimming in the Head Above Water Swimathon at Collaroy on Saturday. This is our third year in a row (and it has rained every time!). We clocked up a collective 10.2kms in 2019 and 13.1kms in 2020, so that’s the target. We will be down at the pool from 4-7pm. This is a fantastic community event raising funds for men's mental health via the Gotcha4Life Foundation. Any donations would be much appreciated!

The message from El-Erian... there are too many unknowns to make this a buying opportunity (and in any case the dip in markets is still fairly small at this stage - just taking away the returns since the start of 2020).

An interesting article from Don Stammer. Not surprisingly the conclusion is that the outlook for shares contains a few uncertainties – potentially arising from a slow-down in economic growth or from a spike in inflation/bond yields – and we should expect occasional market dips.
