Roger Montgomery
September 18, 2023
Back in 2013, I wrote a now infamous article entitled Dear Under 50 Investor. For convenience, I have linked that article at the end of this one. That article made it clear Australians’ superannuation would not be the great source of wealth accumulation for the youth that it once was, and still is, for the older cohort of baby boomers.

Sean Sequeira
July 4, 2023
Most people associate Wesfarmers (ASX:WES) with some of Australia’s best known retail names such as Bunnings, Kmart and Officeworks. While this is where the bulk of the earnings are generated now, the role of Wesfarmers in everyday Australians’ lives actually runs deeper than it would appear on the surface with a growing healthcare and resources exposure.

Another high quality result – Breville
Roger Montgomery
August 23, 2023
Breville Group (ASX:BRG) is a company owned in the Montgomery Small Companies Fund and one we have written about extensively. Back on April 14, I wrote about Breville, its 40 per cent share price decline from August 2021 highs and the fact that it was trading on a price earnings (P/E) ratio typically reserved for retailers with store lease obligations and few runways for growth.

Legacy point of sale providers are the walking dead
Roger Montgomery
July 14, 2023

It’s turned out to be a good call, as the index has since gained 21 per cent.
