Once again, we’ve invited CayLow Mbedzi (EasyEquities Brand Manager) and JD Breytenbach (Senior Trader at Purple Group) into the studio to tell us what's been moving and shaking the markets lately.

To kick things off, we discussed inflation, US earnings, and the significant dividend payouts in October (and it's a lot!).

JD then delved into the most-purchased shares by retail investors on EasyEquities. The duo wrapped up the discussion by sharing the companies that have caught their attention.

These were the shares and other investment vehicles mentioned in this episode in JD and CayLow’s watchlists:

• Gold 
• Bonds

• Tietto Minerals (ASX:TIE)

Other shares mentioned in this episode:

We’re joined again by Siyabulela Nomoyi, Quantitative Portfolio Manager at Satrix, to explain how to read and understand fund factsheets.

It may look intimidating, but a fund factsheet/MDD (Minimum Disclosure Document) is the key information document for exchange traded funds (ETFs), unit trusts, and other types of funds.

Siya breaks it down, covering different aspects to look out for such as fund performance, fees, dividends, and other components.

But this episode isn’t just about translating paper. Siya does a great job in painting the bigger picture by showing us how funds work as well as the pitfalls to avoid when investing in funds.

Aside from his talents in attracting money, Siya is so passionate about education that he has his own blog site where he talks about funds and investing in general. You can check it out here: https://www.siyatheetfguy.com/

Some people like to discover the world of investing on their own terms, while others prefer to let others do the steering. In this episode, we compare the ideas of DIY (Do It Yourself) investing vs. managed investments. 

Our featured guest, Siyabulela Nomoyi, has over 12 years’ experience in the investment management field and is a Quantitative Portfolio Manager at Satrix Investments. You do not want to miss out on this guy’s mind-blowing knowledge.

So, which type of approach would be best for you?

Hit play on this episode to get the pros and cons of either method, the role that fees play in this comparison, and the potential in considering both DIY and managed investments.
