Investment Forecaster
The Forecaster gives UK investors an idea of how certain sectors are predicted to perform over the next 12 months.
Forecast Guidelines:
A Blue tick like this:
means that the House view for the next 12 months is a positive one and will rise by 5% or more.
A Red cross like this:
means that the House view for the next 12 months is a negative one and will fall by 5% or more.
A white square means that the House view for the next 12 months is neutral and is unlikely to rise or fall by more than 5%..
A small white dash means that the House has not produced a view for the particular sector.
Currency forecasts:
When considering investing overseas, it is important to take into account currency forecasts. In the 3 columns to the far right we have provided you with a currency forecast which you should take into account along with the forecast for the relevant geographical sector. If the forecast for a currency is positive, this indicates that the £ is likely to depreciate against the respective currency which will increase the prospective overall returns from the sector. If the forecast is negative, this indicates the opposite - that the currency is likely to strengthen against the £, reducing the overall returns available from the geographical sector.
