Potential Risks - QE unravelling

3

Risk: Unprecedented nature of unravelling the QE is leaving markets nervous that carry trades will unravel as bond yields rise. A sharp rise in bond yields might stunt US growth recovery.

Mitigants: World remains awash with liquidity and US likely to tap the brakes gently.

Progress over the month: The market has waxed and wanned on this issue through the month. However, the Fed appears to be committed to unravelling the QE next year once the Fed budget is settled.

Positioning: Higher bonds and potentially higher US$ would be positive for our current portfolio positioning (QBE, MQG, offshore holdings).

Potential Risks - US Budget Resolution

4

Risk: US Government remains in gridlock regarding the appropriate response to reign in their fiscal deficit. Threats of Government shutdown undermines confidence.

Mitigants: Surely a practical solution will be reached?

Progress over the month: No further progress on this issue and unlikely to be so until January.

Positioning: Short term volatility around this issue could cause difficulties for markets and some of our holdings but ultimately we expect a solution to be found.

Potential Risks - Chinese Growth

5

Risk: A range of issues threaten Chinese growth rates – housing bubble, excess debt, ageing population, corruption.

Mitigants: Government working through solutions to these issues.

Progress over the month: Reforms announced including adjustments to the One Child policy, land rights for farmers and Local Governments to sell bonds to drive greater transparency over their debt.

Positioning: Mild overweight to the major resource companies on expectations cost cutting will improve returns for shareholders.

Valuations

6

Slight pullback in the market this month of 2.5% is a healthy correction following the strong year.

Bank dividends to be paid in December will provide further liquidity.

Market is now trading at 15.1x remains fair to full.

But remains cheap relative to low interest rates.

Future growth to be driven by earnings

Growth drivers: Australian Housing

7

Opportunity: Housing activity is accelerating. Affordability has improved thanks to low interest rates and smaller lot sizes. Reduced Government regulation is accelerating development.

Progress through the month: Lend Lease announced a 20% increase in house sales. Stocklands saw largest uptick in sales for three years in the September quarter. Dulux noted a pick up in trade sales.

Portfolio Positioning: High quality companies with exposure to improvement in house sales – Dulux, Stocklands and Lend Lease.

RP Data Month on Month City Home Values

8

Growth drivers: Funds Flow and Equity

Market Activity

Opportunity: An increase in equity flows has coincided with improvement in global growth, an increased risk appetite and an increased likelihood of QE ending.

Progress through the month: Henderson’s noted they received GBP1.2b in net retail inflows in the first quarter compared to broker expectations of around GBP200m and activity levels are clearly picking up. Numerous new IPO’s is positive for Macquarie.

Portfolio Positioning: Henderson’s and Macquarie Bank.

9

Growth drivers: Global Growth

Opportunity: Global growth is showing signs of improvement and earnings will benefit from any potential pullback in the currency.

Progress through the month: Mixed month – confidence following US shut down took a hit but US ISM continues to expand, US non farm payrolls were strong,

Portfolio Positioning: High quality companies with exposure to offshore growth – Brambles, Amcor, Fox

US ISM

Broad Portfolio Positioning

10

Offshore plays (AMC, BXB, FOX, TWE, QBE).

Rotation out of bonds into equities (HGG, MQG, QBE).

Underweight defensive companies (WOW, TLS, Utilities, banks).

Domestic housing related stocks (LLC, SGP, DLX).

Sustainable growth stocks (TME, SEK, CWN, SHL, AZJ, AIO).

Data has been more supportive for resources (RIO, BHP, WPL).

Treasury Wines

11

Thesis: Signs the grape glut may be on the verge of easing as uneconomic producers exit the market and demand picks up. Brands continue to gain in market strength especially in Australia and worst behind it in the US. Further it is one of the best plays on the growing strength of the Chinese consumer.

Valuation: USA business may be sold and may be worth more from selling the assets then operating them. Intrinsic value of inventory as higher quality vintages are held on to longer.
