Record-low interest rates on term deposits is persuading many more millennials to plough their cash into sharemarket investments for the first time in a bid to grow their wealth.
However, experts warn that investing is not a short-term, get-rich-quick scheme and those entering the market should do so carefully with their eyes wide open – or suffer the consequences.
Some new investors are simply gambling by taking stock tips from unreliable sources.

An ETF for the Cautious Investor might sound like a funny concept since many finance people think of ETFs as a cautious Investor tool. Just taking passive (beta) exposure across a broad, diverse group of stocks like the S&P 500 or MSCI World Index may provide some diversification and, over time, likely provide long-term positive returns if history is an indicator of future behavior.
If you bought an S&P 500 Index ETF 25 years ago – January 1, 1996 – your average annual return minus fees would be approximately 7.5% annually, through January 1, 2021. There would be several years when your returns were negative and other years with double-digit gains.

Mutual funds collectively made $367 billion of taxable capital gains distributions in 2020, totaling just over $3 trillion of distributions in the last 10 years.1 The vast majority of these distributions were reinvested back into the mutual funds. In other words, even though mutual fund investors did not take advantage of the liquidity opportunity, those distributions were still taxable.2
Fortunately, investors looking to improve their bottom line, i.e., after-tax returns, have a number of available options. For instance, they can transition mutual fund assets into tax-efficient Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) and even tax-beneficial strategies.3 Or, they can continue to hold their existing fund positions but add tax-beneficial strategies along side those mutual funds that may offset additional mutual fund capital gain distributions.
