Yo Easy Fam, some might say 2019 was a good a year to test the waters when it came to those so called risky assets (international stocks), which I did! (Thank you EasyEquities Crypto Bundle 😊). So, let's take a look into bundles and analysing the bundle YTD returns available on the platform from ZAR, TFSA and USD bundles.
Bundle you say? A bundle is a group of shares, cherry-picked and managed by those really smart peeps who know what's cooking in the markets, brands and listed companies. They do all the heavy lifting for you so your investment choice is #easy.
Year to date, aka YTD, refers to the period extending from the beginning of the year to the present. YTD information is useful for comparing performance data or returns to help make those investment decisions easier.
From highest risk to lowest risk, we see that the peeps at Emperor Asset Management had the two best performing Global ZAR bundles with a return of 30.07% and 29.81%, namely the Core International and the Old Stithians Association Global ETF bundle respectively with Cannon Asset Managers coming in third with a return of 20.45% with the Global Growth TFSA bundle. The average return YTD for this category (Global ZAR) was 22.20%.
In the ZAR Equity category, Emperor Asset Management took top spots again with their Enhanced Flexible Equity and Core Flexible Equity bundles which produced the highest returns of 21.41% and 15.61% with #Invest coming in third at 12.70% with their Aggressive Growth bundle. The average return YTD for this category (ZAR Equity) was 8.92%.
