A world of opportunities

The US is the centre of global commerce and western culture. The market offers access to world-changing companies and products we use daily; from big local names like Microsoft,  Apple and Tesla to foreign giants like Alibaba and Atlassian who choose to list in the States. The Nasdaq outperformed all other indices over the last decade, while the S&P 500 continues to act as the global equities benchmark.

The biggest global stocks from Nintendo to Tencent to Adidas can also be accessed through OTC markets. Stake provides access to non-exchange listed stocks, a benefit included with Stake Super accounts.

The ASX provides investors access to the local companies powering our economy. From big blue chips like Qantas, BHP and Woolworths to up and coming Aussie innovation like Novonix or Brainchip, the local market is deep. Since 1900, the Australian market has been the best performing of any. A product of a strong commodity base, a strong local currency and friendly geopolitical relations. More active investors also enjoy the benefits of local market hours.

Traditional superfunds do not offer the control and optionality so many investors need over their portfolios. Allocating a percentage of your portfolio to “foreign” and “domestic” shares in traditional, industry managed superfunds, limits an investor’s potential.
