3 Brownian Motion, Robert Brown 1827 Under a microscope pollen grains in water were in a constant state of agitation Einstein’s explanation 1909 “a pollen grain is buffeted by collisions with water molecules moving randomly in all directions” At different times a pollen grain is hit more on one side than another, hence the random nature of the motion (basis of random theory) Significance: The mathematical model of Brownian motion has several real-world applications. An often quoted example is stock market fluctuations.

4 R Merton / P Samuelson “assets have continuous prices evolving continuously in time and are driven by Brownian motion processes” Certain assumptions: perfectly divisible assets, costless markets, no market surprises Some electronic model based trading funds (eg Macq Winton?) use this base theory of randomly fluctuating components. Trading short options positions also uses this theory

6 Europe is a generational debt problem US is not recovering fast enough for Bernanke The Australian Governments instability is deterring overseas investors – the “Gillard” effect Resource oversupply looming – possible capex cutbacks RBA inflation mandate appears outdated Other potential black swans

7 Debt solution has brought market confidence, but slowly Bernanke still keeps open possible QE3 which would drive the markets (but I think it would be small) Australia is still a resource driven economy with China is growing at 7.5% (and very likely higher) Australian stocks are traditionally cheap with good yields Decreasing rates and falling $A is key – May cut. US 2 yr swap rate is 95.75c Middle East War = increase in gold Middle East War = increase in gold China Growth still 8.9% China Europe Recovery mode Europe Australia Positive on resource volumes Australia US growth Potential QE3 US growth Potential QE3 Japan Rebuild econ stimulus Japan

8 Banks Slowing credit growth tempered by falling rates: excess Tier1 capital – buybacks expected end 2012 ANZ has the best capital position 7.99% (Basel III 7.0%) This would boost ROE / yield by >1%, est 2013 ROE 17% Falling cost of capital should also boost profits

9 Retail Remains modest & “two speed” Annual growth 1.9% yoy (large retail) 2.1% yoy (small retail) Food slowed (large 2.6% yoy, small 4.8% yoy) Outlook expected to be modest – subject to IR’s

10 Insurance Underlying margin improvement expected, but may the level may disappoint. Higher re-insurance costs Fierce competition / lack of affordability Low but rising bond yields but narrowing credit spreads. Bond yields may retreat again (target 3%)

11 Media Total ad market fell 1.1% 1H12 Print media declined 8.5%, regional -6.4% (29.6% share) Online produced a stunning growth of 17% (11.6% share) Outdoor was stronger at +1.6% (4% share) Television stable (21% share)

12 Miners Worst performing sector this year Large vs small miners (cash flow vs not) Negatives: Chinese growth slowing Growth mix changing – less investment demand at the moment globally Chinese equities weakening Global growth sluggish & commodity prices above long run average Development costs increased ~50% over 2 years, this will continue

13 Miners cont. Positives Stable prices China more likely to pickup Cheap valuations US economy picking up Continue underweight & continuous assessment

14 Bulk Commodities Coking, thermal coal & Iron Ore mild price increases Fe top performer +8%, coal small decline. Mid term upside in prices, long term oversupply / structural change in China may depress LR prices

15 Telco’s – TLS dominant 9% yield with EPS growth 11% expected. Mobile handset growth & gaining high margins (34%) Growth industry with the explosion in tablets, higher bundles volume & margins Analysts predict capital management next catalyst

16 Solid EPS profile (cash flow is king) low earnings volatility, strong cash flow operations WES, NWS, CSL International exposure (falling $A) AMC, NWS, CSL Deep value plays (market turnaround) AWC, BHP (half weight) Banks – (yield & growth) ANZ, WBC, CBA Stable conservatives (yield & stability) APA, RHC, TLS
